摘要
Although cooperation is the fundamental characteristic of Virtual Enterprise (VE) concept, due to its distributed environment and the autonomous and heterogeneous nature of the VE members, cooperation can only be succeed if a proper management of dependencies between activities is in place. In this paper, we focus on negotiation process in VE formulation to clarify the effective VE management. Each enterprise in VE is defined as agent with multi-utilities and a framework of multi-agent paradigm is newly proposed. We develop a computer simulation model, and clarify the supply chain formulation dynamism on the negotiation process with adaptive behaviour. Copyright © 2008 Inderscience Enterprises Ltd.
