<p>An assignment exchange and auction system comprises a server, a network, a plurality of trader systems and a data store unit. The server performs the auction/exchange, creates and receives assignment messages, and retrieves and stores data sets to and from the data storage unit and processes bids and bid groups and determines an allocation of lots that maximizes a total money value for a plurality of bid groups subject to one or more constraints. The present Invention also includes a method for assigning, pricing or exchanging multiple types of lots receiving bids from a first and second bidder and constraints for the first bid group; determining an allocation of lots that awards bids to the first and second bidders, wherein the allocation maximizes, within the constraint, total money values awarded to each the first and second bidders; and notifying both bidders of the allocation.</p> |
