چکیده

We present a novel negotiation protocol to facilitate energy exchange between off-grid homes that are equipped with renewable energy generation and electricity storage. Our protocol imposes restrictions over negotiation such that it reduces the complex interdependent multi-issue negotiation to one where agents have a strategy profile in subgame perfect Nash equilibrium. We show that our protocol is concurrent, scalable and; under certain conditions; leads to Pareto-optimal outcomes.

A preliminary result on a representative-based multi-round protocol for multi-issue negotiations

Multi-issue negotiation protocols represent a promising field since most negotiation problems in the real world involve multiple issues. Our work focuses on negotiation with interdependent issues, in which agent utility functions are nonlinear. Existing works have not yet focused on agents’ private information. In addition, they were not scalable in the sense that they have shown a high failure...

Efficient Issue-Grouping Approach for Multi-Issues Negotiation between Exaggerator Agents

Introduction Negotiation is an important aspect of daily life and represents an important topic in the field of multi-agent system research. There has been extensive work in the area of automated negotiation; that is, where automated agents negotiate with other agents in such contexts as e-commerce(Kraus 2001), large-scale deliberation, collaborative design, and so on. Many real-world negotiati...

Multi-issue Negotiation Protocol for Agents: Exploring Nonlinear Utility Spaces

Multi-issue negotiation protocols have been studied widely and represent a promising field since most negotiation problems in the real world involve interdependent multiple issues. The vast majority of this work has assumed that negotiation issues are independent, so agents can aggregate the utilities of the issue values by simple summation, producing linear utility functions. In the real world...

Fuzzy cognitive maps for dynamic grid service negotiation

The grid is moving from the scientific grid to a pervasive and economic/business grid. Service trading, in which service provider and service consumer negotiate for a mutually acceptable agreement on multi-issues such as service performance, access cost etc., is one of the most important components in building the Economic Grid. In view of Pervasive Grid, a new challenging issue is that partici...
