Abstract: So far, most distributed scheduling systems have been designed for cooperative agents, and are inappropriate for self-interested agents, which exist for example in inter-firm interactions such as virtual enterprises. This paper discusses issues that arise in extending the Contract Net Protocol to operate among such self-interested agents whose rationality is bounded by combinatorial complexity. The new protocol allows varying the stage of commitment for flexibility in the contracting... (Update)
