*The paper describes an agent-based Knowledge Source Network (KSNet-) approach to coalition operation management and its implementation in a form of a decision support system (DSS) KSNet. Multiagent systems suit well in the area of coalition operations that are based on temporary alliances of distributed autonomous parties. The major discussed aspects cover the approach itself, agent-based architecture of the system KSNet, architecture of an adaptive agent for on-the-fly problem solving, modified contract net protocol for agents' negotiation and a case study.
