    Abstract

    Agent-based negotiation teams are groups of two or more interdependent agents with their own and possibly conflicting goals that join together as a single negotiating party because they share a common goal that is related to the negotiation. In this paper we present a general workflow of tasks for agents that participate in a negotiation team. Furthermore, we focus on the study of intra-team organizations, which define the roles played by team members, what decisions are taken by the team, and how and when they are taken, and the negotiation strategy carried out with the opponent. The performance of the proposed organizations is tested in environmental scenarios where team diversity is different.
