However, in order for mixed auctions to be effectively applied to supply chain formation, we must ensure computational tractability and reduce bidders' uncertainty. With this aim, we introduce Sequential Mixed Auctions (SMAs), a novel auction model conceived to help bidders collaboratively discover supply chain structures. Thus, an SMA allows bidders progressively build a supply chain structure through successive auction rounds. \itemrv{~} \itemcc{} \itemut{} \itemli{doi:10.1007/978-3-642-25274-7\_5} \end
