Abstract

Current Negotiation in E-Commerce trading systems is very important part that advances software’s running efficiency. A CORBA-based negotiation strategy that applies agents’ negotiation technology to interact, capture and reuse successful negotiation experiences is presented. The negotiation technology includes agent’s argumentation mechanism based messages and reasoning mechanism (Case Base Reasoning), which provides adaptive negotiation strategies that can be generated dynamically. An XML-based message mechanism was presented firstly. To improve the system adaptive and extensive, we illustrate this strategy in the commodity-trading domain and have developed a web-based negotiation module for commodity trading. The software architecture, design and implementation of the CORBA-based commodity-trading module are presented.
