Abstract

Business-to-business (B2B) exchanges provide opportunities for companies to streamline their supply chains in dynamic business situations, but also create new management challenges. Managers are faced with more buying and selling decisions, more available information, and even new problems such as speculation. Due to these new challenges, trading support systems will play an important role in helping companies achieve maximum profits in B2B exchanges. This paper presents an agent-based framework focusing on two core functionalities of such systems, bidding and speculating, in the context of Continuous Double Auction (CDA).
