Modified contract net agent negotiation protocol for the system “Integration”
Abstract
The paper describes and analyses a proposed contract net protocol designed as a part of the being developed “SIZ”-approach. Improvements to the contract net protocol concern the formalism of agents’ knowledge representation and the scenario of the agents’ interaction. For the agents’ knowledge representation and manipulation a formalism of object-oriented constraint networks is proposed. Modifications related to the interaction scenarios include introduction of iterative negotiation, concurrent conformation of proposals, extended set of available messages, an additional role for agents and agents’ ability to change their roles during scenarios.References
