Selecting a suitable conflict resolution strategy when conflicts appear in multi-agent environments is a hard problem. There is a need to formulate a model for strategic decision making in selecting a strategy to resolve conflicts. In this paper, we formalise a model for selecting a conflict resolution strategy in multi-agent systems. The model is expected to select a suitable strategy which gu...

Selecting a suitable conflict resolution strategy when conflicts appear in multi-agent environments is a hard problem.

This paper focuses on conflicts over agents’ individual opinion and decision making by taking into account an agent’s features su...

This research will focus on refining the declared...

It offers a typology of the different modes of strategy-making that seem most likely to exist in small firms, and hypothesises how this typology relates to performance. It then describes the results of an empirical study of the stra...
