Automated Negotiation Screenshots

[Sacha Schlegel <sacha_oasis@schlegel.li>]

Hi everyone

Here are two screenshots of the CPA negotiation project at Curtin
University of Technology in Perth, Western Australia with OASIS member
Tim McGrath as an associated supervisor.

I intend to do a live version of it, so people can "run" a negotiation
online but that will not be available before next year. 

Please feel free to comment.

What you see on the screenshots are two companies, company A and company
B. The webpage is split in two parts, company A on the left side and
company B on the right side. Company A is the initiating party. Each
company has a state diagram (there is a missing link to the failure
state from any Final state. Its only missing in the graphics, the bpss
has it, of course). The state diagram gets updated after each Business
Transaction.

On the screenshot you see that company A is about to send a Counter
Offer. There are two negotiation items where the first one is Accepted
and the second one is under offer.

Behind the scene a bpss engine at both sides is executing the latest
Negotiation BPSS v.0.10 (including changes I reported to this list), so
the negotiation follows the Negotiation BPSS. It goes so far that the
negotiation actors (users in this example) only get a list of possible
business documents defined in the RequestingBusinessActivty or
RespondingBusinessActivity respectively.

There are a number of parts which are not implemented from the Automated
Negotiation of CPA Specification. There is a list on the download page
of the project which sort of tells what is missing and what has to be
rewritten.
