Abstract :
A good negotiation model is important in order to improve the efficiency for supply chain negotiation. A negotiation model of supply chain based on multi-agent is presented. The model framework for supply chain negotiation and the status of the negotiation agents are defined. We also discuss the negotiation strategy and its learning mechanism of negotiation model. According to the characters of supply chain, a negotiation protocol is presented. Simulations prove that the presented negotiation model can improve the efficiency and successful cooperation ratio for supply chain negotiation.
