Abstract

This paper aims to improve the argument based negotiation framework \(R^{2}\)-IBN to overcome the cooperation problem within the extended enterprise by the agent-oriented model named MAIS-\(E^{2}\). In order to overcome the problem of cooperation in general and conflict resolution which prevent this practice in particular, we propose as a solution the integration of game theory foundations into two modules of \(R^{2}\)-IBN framework which are: “Argument Evaluation” module and “Argument selection” module. Finally, we expose the evaluation and the validation of our work through the use of a port application.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Note that a negotiation cycle means that agent sends a proposal and the opponent Agent answers it.

  2. 2.

    Note that in “Argument selection” module the strategic form game represents the candidates arguments of the Mediator Agent which will be grafted in the proposal to be sent to the opponent Agent on the one hand and the arguments received on the other hand.

  3. 3.

    The correlated equilibrium is a generalization of the concept of Nash equilibrium in mixed strategies.
