                    Computational Antitrust:

         An Introduction and Research Agenda



                        Dr. Thibault   Schrepel, LL.M.*







Abstract. Computational  antitrust is a new domain of legal informatics which seeks
to develop computational  methods  for the automation of antitrust procedures and
the improvement   of antitrust analysis. The present article first introduces it, then
explores how  agencies, policymakers, and market  participants can benefit from it.
Against this background,  it sets out a research agenda for the years ahead in view
of providing answers  to the challenges  created by computational  antitrust, and
better understand its limits.
