Axiomatic analysis of negotiation protocols

Research output: Chapter in Book / Conference PaperConference Paperpeer-review

Abstract

This paper presents an axiomatic approach to negotiation protocol analysis.W e consider a negotiation procedure as multiple stages of mutual belief revision.A set of postulates in AGM-style of belief revision are proposed to specify rational behavior of negotiation.A n explicit construction of negotiation function is given in which negotiation process is viewed as the interaction of two iterated revision operations.As a result the proposed axiomatic system is proved to be consistent.Finally, we examine our approach with an instantiation of Rosenschein and Zlotkin’s Monotonic Concession Protocol of Negotiation.
