Dr. Kaminski,
Sorry for the late response, it took me some time to coordinate things. Finally, it's almost dont :-) It turned out that from June to August will be best for me for work at ENRON (Say June.4 to August.4) But I still need to know several things from your side. Could you answer following questions? First: Is my suggested working period is OK with you? If so, let me know what to do for settlement during the period. Second: I got a list of work, I might be able to do for DealBench team from Ross and Suresh. I'd like to know it is still a valid work list: The list he sent is as following: < 1. Write a paper in layman's terms that answers < questions like the following: < Benefits of auctioning online for both buyers and < sellers, particularly in reverse auctions < Explanation how multi-variable auctions are not < as efficient as price-only auctions (is this true?) < How many participants are recommended for a < successful live auction < What types of goods and services are best suited < for live auctions versus sealed bid quotes < Opinions on lotting strategies < Trends in online private auctions < 2. Identify appropriate recent auction research (3 < or 4 papers out of the 90+ you provided)and obtain approvals from the < authors to post on our site < 3. Create a list/bibiliography of relevant auction < literature (with hyperlinks?) < 4. Would you be willing to offer auction consulting < services to our customers (if they are interested) Third: There is an e-procurement forum at Haas School of business, in May 22. The chair of the forum is my advisor Prof. Arie Segev. A person from Wells Fargo Bank will talk about Wells Fargo's role in e-marketplace payment initiative, where ENRON broadband services is also one of key players along with Citibank. He asked me whether you can contact a person at ENRON broadband services, who's related to the initiative. He wants to know whether we will have a speaker from ENRON to see ENRON's perspective, in the Forum. Here is a link to news related to the initiative, http://www.internetweek.com/story/INW20000808S0001 Fourth: My advisor wants to know whether there could be any opportunity to do a case study, regarding ENRON's business. He is interested in e-procurement and e-marketplaces. Business model and System architecture... Thanks for reading this long email. I'll look forward to your answer.. I am sorry for giving you so much burden to answer those questions possibly not easy to answer.
