چکیده

Traditionally, research in electronic negotiations support has concentrated on monolithic negotiations, i.e. negotiations in which parties are unitary decision entities. In this paper, a model for non-monolithic electronic negotiations is introduced. This model, named the contract-group-message model, integrates a multiversion contract model, and support for group dynamics and message exchange. Design of support systems for non-monolithic electronic negotiations based on the contract-group-message model is also presented in this paper. RÉSUMÉ. Les travaux de recherche sur les négociations électroniques assistées par ordinateur ont traditionellement pour objet l’étude des négociations monolithiques, i.e. des négociations dans lesquelles les parties engagées sont considérées comme des entités décisionnelles unitaires. Dans cet article, un modèle pour les négociations électroniques non monolithiques est introduit. Celui-ci, appelé « contrat-groupe-message », intègre un modèle de contrat multiversionné et un support pour la dynamique de groupe et les échanges de messages. La conception de systèmes d’aide aux négociations électroniques non monolithiques basés sur le modèle contrat-groupe-message est également étudiée dans cet article.
