摘要: This paper describes an ongoing effort in developing a Multiagent System (MAS) for supply chain management. In our framework, functional agents can join in, stay, or leave the system. The Supply Chain Management (SCMS) functionality is implemented through agent-based negotiation. When order arrives, virtual may emerge from system automated semi-automated negotiation processes between agents. We present framework and describe number of performatives, which be used to construct pair-wise third party protocols agent cooperation. also explain how formally model process by using Colored Petri Nets (CPN) we provide example establishing solving distributed constraint satisfaction problem.
