Abstract

This paper presents the key features of a new negotiation model for autonomous agents. The model is generic, handles multi-party and multi-issue negotiation, acknowledges the role of conflict as a driving force of negotiation, formalizes a set of human negotiation procedures, allows the dynamic addition and removal of issues, and accounts for a tight integration of the individual capability of planning and the social capability of negotiation. This paper also characterizes the model along a set of dimensions and compares it with other developed models.
