چکیده

This paper describes an approach to ontology negotiation between information agents. Ontologies are declarative (data driven) expressions of an agent’s “world”: the objects, operations, facts, and rules that constitute the logical space within which an agent performs. Ontology negotiation enables agents to cooperate in performing a task, even if they are based on different ontologies. The process allows agents to discover ontology conflicts and then, though incremental interpretation, clarification, and explanation, establish a common basis for communicating with each other.

Ontologies for supporting negotiation in e-commerce

In this paper we present our experience in applying Semantic Web technology to automated negotiation. This result is a novel approach to automated negotiation, that is particularly suitable to open environments such as the Internet. In this approach, agents can negotiate in any type of marketplace regardless of the negotiation mechanism in use. In order to support a wide variety of negotiation ...

An Approach to Ontology Mapping Negotiation

Ontology mapping negotiation aims to achieve consensus among real-world entities about the process of transforming information between different models (ontologies). This paper describes a novel approach for ontology mapping negotiation, in which agents representing the real-world entities are able to achieve consensus among agents, about the mapping rules defined between two different ontologi...

Ontology Mapping Negotiation Based on Categorization of Semantic Bridges

Ontology mapping negotiation aims to achieve consensus among real-world entities about the process of transforming information between different ontologies. This paper describes a novel ontology mapping negotiation approach, based on the categorization of semantic bridges according to their confidence and relevance to the interoperability. The semantic bridges are then proposed between two agen...

Novel Ontology Model for Communicating Heterogeneous Negotiation Mobile-Agent in a Transport Environment

In this paper, we address the problem of negotiation process in a multi-agents system by using ontologies. Therefore, we present an ontology solution based on the knowledge management system for semantic heterogeneity. The proposed solution prevents the misunderstanding during the negotiation process through the agents’ communications. Our approach aims to enable agents able to understand each ...
