Research in Distributed Artificial Intelligence is concerned with how automated agents can be designed to interact effectively. One important capability that could aid inter-agent...
In previous work [Zlotkin and Rosenschein, 1989a], we have developed a negotiation protocol and offered some negotiation strategies that are in equilibrium. This negotiation proce...
Negotiation has been extensively discussed in gametheoretic, economic, and management science literatures for decades. Recent growing interest in electronic commerce has given inc...
Recent advancements in communication systems enable the collaboration of virtual software design teams, breaking the barriers of time and distance. In this paper we address a criti...

Negotiation is a fundamental mechanism in distributed multi-agent systems. Since negotiation is a time-spending process, in many scenarios agents have to take into account the pas...
We propose a novel method for constructing utility models by learning from observed negotiation actions. In particular, we show how offers and counter-offers in negotiation can be...
A component-based generic agent architecture for multi-attribute (integrative) negotiation is introduced and its application is described in a prototype system for negotiation abo...
We have designed and implemented an adaptive, confidence-based negotiation strategy for conducting multiple, concurrent negotiations among agents in dynamic, uncertain, and real-t...
Abstract. Negotiation over resources and multi-agent planning are important issues in multi-agent systems research. It has been demonstrated [19] how symbolic negotiation and distr...
This paper describes a novel negotiation protocol for cellular networks, which intelligently improves the performance of the network. Our proposed reactive mechanism enables the d...
