Resumo: | ||||||||
This work presents a multi-agent system to trade in
simultaneous auctions of related goods. The dissertation
describes the multi-agent architecture, and also the
analysis and development of strategies for trading in
simultaneous auctions, where the purchase of combined goods
is required. Some well known problems in trading were
identified in order to design the architecture, such as
price prediction, good allocation, decision making,
reasoning under uncertainty, and demand segmentation. Each
agent that composes the system is concerned with one of
those trading subproblems. This makes possible to apply
different computational techniques to separately solve the
subproblems and then combine the solutions. The Trading
Agent Competition (TAC) is used to illustrate our approach.
TAC was chosen to test the developed heuristics since it
presents a set of characteristics that adequately fits the
problem domain. Each heurist developed was tested and
had its results compared to TAC previous editions. Finally,
the system shows a high performance on very competitive
scenarios tested by using the TAC server environment.
