Bilateral negotiation of a meeting point in a maze: Demonstration

International audienceNegotiation between agents aims at reaching an agreement in which the conflicting interests of agents are accommodated.

Their individual preferences match with a minimal distance computed from their partial knowledge of the environment. We illustrate a bargaining protocol which allows agents to submit several proposals at the same round and a negotiation strategy which consists in starting from the best deal for the agent and then concedes. The path between the agents emerges from the repeated negotiations
