Abstract

A serious limitation in successful deployment of ebXML have been conflicting CPP contents, preventing automatic generation of CPA that can satisfy collaborating partners. In the paper a method for resolving CPP conflicts with a simple bilateral bargaining protocol using utility function and discount factor is proposed. It enables negotiating CPAs by taking into account hierarchical structure of CPPs, which has not been considered properly by existing CPA negotiation protocols.
