Using Rules and R2ML for Modeling Negotiation Mechanisms in E-Commerce Agent Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
With the spread of e-commerce on a global scale, the development of truly open semantic descriptions of negotiation mechanisms for agent systems generated a lot of interest in the research community. This paper proposes the use of the REWERSE rule-markup language R2ML for semantic modeling of negotiation mechanisms to enable agents to engage in more flexible and open negotiations. Rules are developed on top of an ontology of negotiation concepts and define a lingua franca for all software agents participating in negotiation.

متن کاملKnowledge discovery for adaptive negotiation agents in e-marketplaces
With the increasing popularity of e-marketplaces for B2C and B2B e-commerce, intelligent software agents are promising in improving the effectiveness of these markets by autonomously searching for products and negotiating contracts on behalf of the human decision makers. A large number of research has been conducted to develop negotiation protocols and mechanisms for automated negotiations. How...
