B2C electronic marketplace based in intelligent and mobile agents

Several architectures were proposed in the literature for the modeling of the interactions between agents.Within the framework of this article, we describe three architectures based on the multi agents design. In these systems, Buyer and Seller agents interact in an environment comparable to an electronic market in order to sell and buy goods.We propose then an electronic architecture of commerce based on intelligent and mobile agents called VEMMA.We present the formal model of this architecture as well as an implementation using the Java language and the RMI technology

Une recherche locale stochastique pour le problème de la détermination du gagnant dans les enchères combinatoires

National audienceDans ce papier, nous proposons un algorithme de recherche locale stochastique (SLS) pour résoudre le problème de la détermination du gagnant (PDG) dans les enchères combinatoires. Des expérimentations numériques sont réalisées sur des benchmarks de diverses tailles dans le but de tester et de prouver l'efficacité de notre approche. Les résultats trouvées par la méthode SLS sont nettement meilleurs que ceux fournis par les algorithmes de recherche tabou et Casanova

A market-oriented agent-based model for information retrieval

International audienceInformation Retrieval in the World Wide Web (Web IR) is essential for a number of activities and it is an active domain of research and development. The main challenges concern the relevance of the results provided to users' queries and the performance regarding respond-time. On the other hand, agent-based market systems prove to be efficient for implementing e-commerce or B2B applications on the internet, thanks to inherent properties such as prominency of interactions, scalability, flexibility, interoperability, etc. Although the use of agents in other application domains is not yet widespread, the integration of mobile agents into market mechanisms bring clear and efficient solutions to Quality of Service issues encountered in most distributed applications and notably in Web IR systems. Mobility allows defining the seller – buyer model of interaction, where agents act on behalf of final users or devices providing re-sources, while the generic Market Place architecture provides an organizational setting for the matching of demands and offers. The paper shows how this framework applies to Web IR and provides experimental validation results from a Jade implementation
