Frank Teuteberg, Iouri Loutchko · Birkhäuser-Verlag eBooks · 2006
The popularity of wireless devices stimulates widespread efforts to develop voice and mobile user interfaces for software systems in general and for emarketplaces in particular. This paper focuses on conceptual foundations and the architecture of an agent-based job e-marketplace supporting mobile negotiations. The negotiation model is based on many negotiation issues, a fuzzy utility scoring method, and simultaneous negotiation with many negotiation partners in an environment of limited negotiation time. The design and implementation of voice and mobile user interfaces for accessing information on an e-marketplace called FuzzyMAN (Fuzzy Multi-Agent Negotiations) is described. A comparison of technologies for the development of voice and mobile user interfaces is given.
