Decentralized method for computing Pareto solutions in multiparty negotiations

Article Abstract:

A decentralized technique for calculating Pareto-optimal solutions in multiparty negotiations over continuous issues is proposed. The technique is based on the well-known weighting method, which is decomposed by introducing an own decision variable for each decision maker and by using the dual decomposition technique on the resulting problem. The technique affords a systematic way for obtaining some or all Pareto-optimal solutions so that decision makers need not know each others' valu functions.

Propositional belief base merging or how to merge beliefs/goals coming from several sources and some links with social choice theory

Article Abstract:

The connection between social choice theory and the problem of aggregating beliefs provided by different agents in a negotiation procedure is examined. The relation between majority operators and arbitration operators is studied and the results are presented.
