16 End of clock rounds

  The clock rounds of the primary stage will end when there is a clock round in which, for every product, the excess demand is not greater than zero for the lots of the product (the final clock round). At this point, the auction manager will announce to each bidder, using the auction system, that the clock rounds have ended and that the auction will progress to the secondary stage (if required) or the assignment stage.
