| Abstract | Assumption-based argumentation is one of the approaches to contract negotiation which insists on exchanging information and giving attack and counter-attack between agents so that one agent can influence mutually to others' conductions. Dung et. al. have given a negotiation framework [7] and describe an extensive application of argumentation-based decision making and negotiation to a real-world scenario in which an investor agent and estate agent negotiate to lease a land for a computer assembly plant [8). This thesis implements the framework to suppOli negotiation between investor agent and estate agent. The system is built by using JADE framework to demonstrate multi-agents system, MARGO and CaSAPI to represent internal agent (e.g. knowledge, goals), find out the admissible arguments and make decision. Decision making phase which is about finding a suitable location based on investor's structural goals has been completely implemented. Moreover, investor and estate agent can determine the type of each other and give suggestion to bargain. This is an independent framework that can run in other scenario by changing the knowledge base having the same structure. |
