Agents are computational systems that are capable of autonomous,
reactive and proactive behaviour, and are also able to interact
with each other. The application of agents in e-Commerce is one of

providing more in-depth coverage of subjects such as negotiation,
auctions, bargaining, voting protocols and coalition formation.
Mobile agents and issues of trust and security are also
