%T A fully-distributed, multiagent approach to negotiation in mobile ad-hoc networks

%X This paper presents an interaction protocol intended to be used in distributed negotiation problems using software agents,
which could be applied to multi-agent systems deployed over Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs) connected via wireless
networks. We are especially interested in semi-competitive scenarios, where each agent in the system acts on behalf of a
user, trying to maximize its user preferences while pursuing a common agreement. In these conditions, and especially if
we are dealing with open and dynamic environments like mobile ad-hoc networks, the goals and attitudes of software
agents cannot be guaranteed. Taking this into account we propose a protocol where interaction among agents is done in a
fully-distributed manner, so that no user can have negotiation privileges over the others.
