Abstract. Many researchers have had fun searching for and rendering symmetric Venn diagrams, culminating in the recent result of Griggs, Killian, and Savage ("Venn Diagrams an...
We present a multi-dimensional, multi-step negotiation mechanism for task allocation among cooperative agents based on distributed search. This mechanism uses marginal utility gai...
