Research on Conflicts Resolving for Collaborative Negotiation

This paper aims at resolving conflicts in collaborative negotiation of a core enterprise with more than one upper negotiators and lower negotiators. First, the type and effect of conflicts in collaborative negotiation are analyzed. Furthermore, we design the Domain Propagation Algorithm based on Constraints Propagation and Constraints Loosening (DPACPCL) to resolve conflicts for collaborative negotiation. And also a prototype system is developed. The experimental result validates the collaborative negotiation model and domain propagation algorithm proposed in the paper and it may help carry out multi-thread negotiation by supporting more than one upper negotiators and lower negotiators at the same time to achieve ideal business process integration.
