Applying game theory to automated negotiation
نویسندگان
چکیده
With existing technology, it is already possible for personal agents to schedule meetings for their users, to write the small print of an agreement, and for agents to search the Internet for the cheapest price. But serious negotiation cranks the difficulty of the problem up several notches. In this paper, we review what game theory has to offer in the light of experience gained in programming automated agents within the ADEPT (Advance Decision Environment for Process Tasks) project, which is currently being used by British Telecom for some purposes.

Automated Negotiation
This paper first describes a few existing models for product and merchant brokering and automated negotiation in the framework of agent-based e-marketplaces. Our analysis shows that only simplest types of automated negotiation protocols are currently presented online, whereas some powerful systems have been already implemented in the product and merchant brokering field. Then we give an overvie...

متن کاملNegotiation and Task Sharing Among Autonomous Agents in Cooperative Domains
This work uses the language of game theory to analyze negotiation among automated agents in cooperative domains. However, while game theory generally deals with negotiation in continuous domains and among agents with full information, this research considers discrete domains and the case where agents have only partial information, assumptions of greater interest for artificial intelligence.

Automated negotiation agents negoatite issues of an e-commerce transaction with human consumers on behalf of e-commerce vendors, and they can increase the financial benefits of the consumer and the vendor jointly. Both the artificial intelligence community and the economics (game-theory) community have proposed methods for negotiation agent design. The focus has been on agents that are restrict...
متن کاملApplication of Stochastic Optimal Control, Game Theory and Information Fusion for Cyber Defense Modelling
The present paper addresses an effective cyber defense model by applying information fusion based game theoretical approaches. In the present paper, we are trying to improve previous models by applying stochastic optimal control and robust optimization techniques. Jump processes are applied to model different and complex situations in cyber games. Applying jump processes we propose some m...
