Samenvatting: | Negotiation is an important part of today’s business pro- cesses on an inter-enterprise level. Agent research offers a variety of ap- proaches and tools to automate negotiations. Currently these technolo- gies have the drawback that the human manager retains the responsi- bility for the outcome of a negotiation, but this person most often does not have the required knowledge to define the agent’s behavior by him- self. To increase acceptability of automated negotiation approaches, we consider it necessary that human negotiators can specify the strategies for the agents. In this article we present a meta model, which enables human negotiators to specify trade-off strategies. Trade-off strategies are a key concept in negotiation in general. This meta model is based on the Ecore meta model. The specified trade-off strategies can automatically be transformed into representations that can be used by an agent. Our meta model provides a model and a graphical notation that allows it to create graphical editors for trade-off strategies. Therefore, it becomes possible to specify trade-off strategies without any programming knowledge. |
