Abstract :
In multiagent setting agent teams often encounter conflicts in agents´ plans and actions. This paper presents a cooperative negotiation model (ABCON) that allows agents in a team to appropriately negotiate various options in a hostile and dynamic fire world. It shows that negotiations explore the attitudes and behaviors that help agents to manage conflict constructively. It says that cooperative negotiation is guided by the agents´ dynamic assessment of alternative actions given the different scenario conditions.
