Abstract :
To date, a lot of automated negotiation models have been developed and manifold negotiation challenges have been already addressed. However, in order to evaluate the state of the art of automated negotiations a classification structure is needed. This paper proposed a taxonomy for classifying automated negotiations. The evaluation of the state of the art to this taxonomy shows the manifold addressing of negotiation challenges, but mainly related to the structure and the process of the negotiation. However, criteria of theoretic foundations and specific negotiation phenomena seem to be inadequately researched
