Abstract :
Automated negotiation system is a popular research area in recent years and it covers many aspects. In this paper we present the contents of building automated negotiation system and at the same time explain the negotiation process of agents. In order to support flexible and fast negotiation, we add arguments in agents´ negotiation process and they extend the previous negotiation process. Then we give four argument types and use an example to explain the negotiation process after adding arguments.
