Key Concepts​

This diagram shows how bilateral negotiations resolve through the combination of agent actions:

  • Individual Actions: Each agent can ACCEPT, REJECT, PROPOSE, or TIMEOUT
  • Action Combinations: How pairs of actions determine the next state
  • Terminal States: SUCCESS, FAILURE, and TIMEOUT_TERMINAL with utility calculations
  • Continuation: MIXED_ACTIONS lead to corecursive next rounds
  • Alternative Search: Failed negotiations trigger searches for other partners
