Study on Multi-phase Dynamic Cooperation in Agile Virtual Enterprises (ID: 3-019)

摘要

The cooperation and coordination of agile virtual enterprise (AVE) is becoming a critical issue in the research domain of AVE. To deal with this issue, the multi-agent-based cooperation infrastructure, mechanism and negotiation strategy of AVE are analyzed and discussed in this work. An open heterogeneous multi-agent cooperation platform designed for AVE is developed. Some implemental technologies, such as agent communication mode, agent communication language and interacting mechanism, are discussed. A multi-phase dynamic negotiation model for the cooperation and coordination of AVE is presented. The model covers the negotiation strategies of the interactions between AVE organizer and its partners. At the same time, an algorithm is pro-posed for carrying out the dynamic negotiation process. Finally, emphasis is placed on the analysis of the multilateral dynamic negotiation process among AVE partners.
