Abstract :
This paper analyses the principle and problems of the classical contract net in the application, it is proposed that contract business extension contract nets based on the concurrent trading mechanism. This mechanism makes the task allocation realize quickly. It reduces network communication cost between the agents, improves the efficiency of multi-agent system collaboration and the overall system performance maximizly. Finally, the simulation of aircraft ground deicing verifies the effectiveness of the mechanism.
