Abstract
Nowadays, there is a surge of B2C and B2B e-commerce operated
on the Internet. However, many of these systems are often nothing
more than electronic product or service catalogues. Against this background,
it is argued that new generation systems based on automatic
negotiation will emerge. This paper covers a particular kind of automatic
negotiation systems, where a number of participants in a mobile
dynamic electronic marketplace automatically negotiate the purchase of
products or services, by means of multiple automated one-to-one bargainings.
In a dynamic e-marketplace, the number of buyers and sellers
and their preferences may change over time. By mobile we mean that
buyers in a commercial area may initiate simultaneous negotiations with
several sellers using portable devices like cell phones, laptops or personal
digital assistants, so these negotiations do not require participants to be
colocated in space. We will show how an expressive approach to fuzzy
constraint based agent purchase negotiations in competitive trading environments,
is ideally suited to work on these kind of e-marketplaces. An
example of mobile e-marketplace, and a comparison between an expressive
and an inexpressive approach will be presented to show the efficiency
of the proposed solution.
