Welcome to the GUI-for-multi-party-auctioning wiki!

This wiki will show you what this system does and whats the intentional use of it. For information about how to install and running tests, check out README.md

Intro

The development of this system comes from an idea of an auction system which would be highly automated with fast negotiations and smart bidding techniques which consist of more than just money. For example, a bid could be based on delivery distance, buyers environmental score and money. This means that all aspects will take to account and therefore companies which have their industry close to the seller or have a high score in recycling/environmental care will have their bids amplified by that. Let's say company A places a bid that money-wise was 20$/kg for a product and they are really close by the seller. Another company B bids but this company is located on another kontinent. If both companies have the same environmental score, company A will have the highest bid. This way of calculating bids total value opens up for a lot of different attributes for each bid, not only environmental and money as it is in the example. Furthermore, the seller should be able to choose the winner of their auction so they as a seller can determine what attributes that they prioritize. In a way, all attributes will give a multiplier on the money in the bid and therefore companies will benefit from being more environmental friendly, have better human resources, etc as their liquid assets will be worth more.

Important notice is that this repository is only a Graphical User Interface(GUI) for this project. Therefore, the introduction to this wiki is not completely represented in this system yet.

Navigating the GUI

Below is a video showing what's possible to do in version 2.0 in the GUI. This version is in alpha and still quite buggy and is NOT connected to the API yet. However, one can do a lot of testing from the pre-generated json-strings that represents future API responses.
