Professors
Michael Baye (Indiana), John Morgan (Berkeley) and Patrick Scholten
(Bentley) are actively involved in
cutting-edge academic research
on the
industrial organization of the new economy.
Using the
tools of game theory, econometrics, and information economics together
with one of the largest datasets ever assembled on pricing by firms
selling products over the Internet, they have studied issues ranging from
the impact of fee structures at price comparison sites on the
competitiveness of E-markets to the incentives of firms to price
discriminate among online and off-line customers. |

| Evolution of
Online Markets |
These researchers have been tracking the evolution of online markets since
the late 1990s, and have assembled
a number of continuous datasets spanning nearly five years and containing well over 10
million price observations for over 5,000 different products.
The tables and graphs
displayed on the Data tab are based on
these data and their ongoing research. They are
continuously updated as a service to the academic and business community. |

Their research has
been published in leading academic journals such as the American
Economic Review, Journal of Political Economy, Review of
Economic Studies, and Econometrica.
