In order to solve the condition that E-Commerce is inefficient and relies largely on labor, a B2B E-Commerce Model (MAECS) based on the Multi-agent system (MAS) was introduced. This system focused on distributed FIPA-Agent OS based multi-agent system, and introduced the facilitator such as buyer agent and seller agent. This system reduced communication traffic effectively, realized the asynchronous transfer of information and platform-independent, making e-commerce system handle the business processes independently and intelligently and improved e-commerce activities efficiency.
