Abstract

The phenomenal growth of global information networks such as the World Wide Web has generated considerable interest in electronic commerce in information goods and services. Most work in this area has focused on commerce in static information services such as digital libraries and electronic news-stands. In contrast, this paper is concerned with electronic commerce in interactive technologies that support decision making. It summarizes some recent proposals on electronic markets which support this type of electronic commerce.

The research has been supported by tthe Deutache Forschungsgemeinschaft, Sonderforschungsbereich 373
