Multi-agent Negotiation under Time Constraints on an Agent-based Marketplace for Personnel Acquisition
نویسنده
چکیده
A model for multi-agent negotiation under time constraints on an agent-based marketplace for personnel acquisition is presented. In the situation under consideration agents have contradictory aims and multi-lateral negotiation is chosen as the most suitable form for agents’ co-ordination. Negotiation issues and negotiation strategies are discussed first. Then the general case of multi-lateral negotiation with multiple negotiation issues is considered. Although the paper deals with the specific situation of an electronic marketplace for personnel acquisition, the proposed negotiation model can be used with appropriate modifications for other agent-based e-marketplaces where agents have contradictory aims and negotiation is required.
