Simulating Cooperative Transportation Companies

In this paper we propose the use of methods from Distributed Artificial Intelligence for the simulation of complex economical and social Systems. Apart from [11], we stress the power that can be gained by applying mechanisms of coordination and cooperation among autonomous agents. As an example, the transportation domain is modeled as a multiagent scenario. Negotiation is used as a mechanism for achieving coordination among autonomous agents. We describe the different dimensions of cooperation and details of the simulation-system. Preliminary results are provided.
