Abstract :
The current rapidly changing market requires unprecedented levels of interoperability between enterprises. The framework presented in this paper allows the implementation of highly flexible distributed agent-based supply chain systems. Starting from the customer´s initial request an entire network of suppliers is generated automatically. Agents in our framework can change roles dynamically, collaborate and compete against each other to offer the best solution for the customer´s request. In order to evaluate offers, a rule based evaluation procedure is implemented. Use of location data is also introduced, enabling agents to determine transport costs, define specific delivery areas and evaluate risks based on the customer/supplier location.
