Abstract :
ABC4MAS provides an environment to support the rapid assembly of agent-oriented business collaborations. ABC4MAS allows: (i) to set up a collaboration environment (CE) as a virtual organisation, (ii) to reach agreements within the CE to form short-term business collaborations, (iii) to enact business collaborations, and (iv) to track the performance of agents within business collaborations to build their trust and reputation within the CE.
