The method according to claim 1, wherein the payment is selectively dependent on a placed or raised respective bid or offer price which is not a final auction bid or offer price, for at least one auction participant for the respective placed or raised respective bid or offer price. 5. The method according to claim 1, further comprising announcing the basis for calculating the payment, wherein the payment is part of an economic incentive structure to recruit at least one competitor to at least one winning offeror or bidder to compete in the auction. 6. The method according to claim 1, wherein the payment represents an allocated portion of a final transaction price of the auction. 7. The method according to claim 1, wherein the auction represents an automated negotiation for a right of control over allocation of a set of resources between competing parties. 8. The method according to claim 1, wherein participants in the auction submit utility functions representing formulaically their respective valuation for participating in a transaction resulting from the auction, wherein the respective utility functions from the participants are economically evaluated during the auction. 9. The method according to claim 8, wherein the submitted utility functions are evaluated based on private information of a respective bidder or offeror, and evaluated as a normalized value. 10. The method according to claim 1, further comprising computing, using an automated computing device, a distributing of a first portion of a received payment in the auction to a respective counterparty to a successful bidder or offeror, and a second portion of the received payment to the losing bidder or offeror. 11. The method according to claim 1, wherein the auction is for allocating rights over sets of resources by determining a set of successful bids from a plurality of bidders and a plurality of offers, a successful bid comprising a matching of a maximimum aggregate value of the sets of resources to the bidders and a minimum aggregate value of the sets of resources to the offerors, wherein the maximum aggregate value of bids equals or exceeds the minimum aggregate value of offers,wherein a Vickrey price is defined for each set of resources from a bidder placing a respective successful bid, and a payment of its offer price define for each set of resources to each respective offeror of a respective successful bid, andwherein the payment represents at least a portion of any economic surplus of the auction which is allocated to at least one unsuccessful bidder or offeror based on a value bid or offered. 12. The method according to claim 1, wherein a winning bidder pays a Vickrey price, an offeror party receives a price in excess of a reserve price, and at least one losing competing bidder party receives the payment representing a portion of the difference between the Vickrey price and the amount paid to the offeror party computed in dependence on a value bid by the at least one losing competing bidder party. 13. The method according to claim 1, wherein payments are made to a plurality of bidders or offerors, wherein bidders or offerors who placed losing bids or offers closer to the auction transaction price obtain a greater payments. 14. The method according to claim 1, wherein the auction is defined to have a payoff function which pays an offeror an amount in excess of its private value, and a payment is made to a set of competing losing bidders an amount representing least a portion of a remainder of a winning bid after payment to the offeror of the amount in excess of its private value, in a manner adapted to recruit bidders to compete with a winning bidder based on their receipt under the payoff function of an amount for presenting competing bids, such that the offeror is likely to receive a net amount in excess of a likely net amount if the portion of the remainder was not paid to the losing bidders. 15. The method according to claim 1, wherein the winning bidder and offeror are selected in the auction to maximize an economic surplus of a transaction based on the selection, and the payment is made to the at least one losing bidder or offeror in an amount which preserves a positive economic surplus for the transaction between the winning bidder and offeror. 16. The method according to claim 1, wherein a transaction price of the auction is established such that the winning bidder or bidders pay a price less than their respective private value for the transaction, the winning offeror or offerors receive a price in excess of their respective private value for the transaction, and the economic surplus of the transaction is maximized. 17. The method according to claim 15, wherein a portion of the economic surplus of the auction transaction is allocated to the at least one losing bidder or at least one losing offeror who are not parties to the auction transaction, as the payment, in dependence on an amount of a losing bid by the respective at least one losing bidder or at least one losing offeror. 18. The method according to claim 1, wherein a portion of an economic surplus of an auction transaction is allocated as the payment according to predefined rules to a subset of the at least one losing bidder or offeror, the rules being adopted to promote recruitment of the at least one losing bidder or offeror to participate in the auction a manner to raise a respective bid or lower a respective offer of at least one respective bidder or offeror that is a party to the auction transaction. 19. The method according to claim 1, wherein the auction is an ascending price auction, in which the payment is a portion of an auction transaction price is allocated to at least a second highest bidder in dependence on a value of the highest losing bid. 20.
