Abstract :
The task of filtering the potential supplier base in the marketplace is tedious while evaluating all the necessary quantitative decision factors. A superior structure of a multiagent system is constructed in this study to present, the characteristics of the e-marketplace. The illustrative examples´ results prevail to show that, after communicating among the virtual e-marketplace, the suppliers did know how to adapt their strategies to accommodate buyers´ demand. On the other hand, the buyers also know which supplier is the most appropriate for short term
