Abstract

Several recent works in the area of Artificial Intelligence focus on computational models of argumentation-based negotiation. However, even if computational model of arguments are used to encompass the reasoning of interacting agents, this logical approach does not come with an effective strategy for agents engaged in negotiations. In this paper we present a realisation of theMinimal Concession (MC) strategy. The main contribution of this paper is the realisation of this intelligent strategy by means of assumption-based argumentation illustrated by an intuitive scenario of resource negotiation. Moreover, we claim here that the outcome of negotiations, which are guaranteed to terminate, is an optimal agreement (when possible) if the agents adopt the MC strategy.
