An adaptive agent architecture for automated negotiation

摘要

Adaptability is regarded as an essential capability for negotiating agent to deal with dynamic environments. In current literatures, however, little attention has been paid on improving this capability. This paper presents a new agent architecture to support adaptive negotiation, and discusses the mechanisms of protocol parsing and strategy generation in detail. An experiment is carried out on JADE platform to test the feasibility of this architecture, and the results validate that agents can adaptively understand protocols and respond with optimal strategies.
