However, due to the diversified problem-solving knowledge and different goal-settings among design agents, it may increase the number of conflicts and make design process more difficult to manage. In this paper, a goal-driven negotiation model based on decision analysis for resolvirig conflicts in a multi-agent environment is presented. The proposed model generates the negotiation sets, analyzes the utilities derived from each agent, and evaluates them based on the three heuristic rules. The goal-driven negotiation model attempts to maximize the system objectives and satisfy design constraiilts. It also reduces the interaction required among agents. An example of the poppet relief valve is used to demonstrate the negotiation concept.}, title={Support systems for decision and negotiation processes * Volume 1 * Concurrent engineering: Modeling the negotiation process}, type={Text}, URL={http://rcin.org.pl/Content/197803/PDF/KS-1992-02-R44.pdf}, }
