Discuss what Really Matters in Auction Design

The first question specifies which

parts of the paper you are expected to read, and asks for a general summary. I imagine that

an adequate summary will take approximately one half to one full typed, single-spaced page

of text. In addition to summarizing the reading in your own words, you should answer each

of the other questions � depending on the question, a complete answer may take a sentence

or a full paragraph.

I will post the link of the reading.
