Abstract

In B2B EC area, the need for agent based system for desktop purchasing is increasing. To simulate agent based B2B e-Commerce, we model the b-cart based B2B agent framework. B-cart implies a buyer's shopping cart which a buyer carries to the seller's sites. The modeled system is designed to provide an effective architecture for employee's direct desktop purchasing from external sellers' e-marketplaces. In this paper, we propose the thirteen features of b-cart based agent system in B2B EC; Identification, User Dialog, Collection, Trashing, Individual Purchase Decision Support, Organizational Purchase Decision Support, Negotiation, Ordering, Payment, Tracking, Recording, Record Transmission, Knowledge Maintenance. Based on these features, we design the buying process, the system architecture, and message interfaces. We simulate the effect of the system by making a performance evaluation model. From this research we show a possibility and efficiency of the b-cart based agent system.
