Outline of Final Research Achievements

This research focuses on automated negotiations in Multi-Agent Systems. I tried to achieve the following research problems: (1) Structuring and categorizing of interdependencies between issues, (2) Automated negotiation protocols considering structures of interdependencies between issues, (3) Evaluations of the proposed methods using the scenarios in real life.
Automated Mediation Protocols based on Monotonic Tree Representations and Automated Strategy Adaptation for Multi-times Bilateral Closed Negotiations using TKI can be proposed during the three years study period. In addition, we can demonstrate that the proposed methods have enough effectiveness in the simulations and the automated negotiating agent competition(ANAC).
