Abstract

Multi-commodity trading can be performed both in centralized and distributed architecture environment. Choice of architecture creates a need to choose an appropriate communication model. Thus the definition of communication models is required. Foundation for Intelligent Physical Agents (abbrev. FIPA) organization, supplies us with communication models, appropriate for multi-agent systems. In this chapter we describe these models, and we also propose how FIPA standards can be enriched to multi-commodity and distributed elements.
