[COMP25] The Automated Negotiating Agents Competition (ANAC) 2025 Challenges and Results
For researchers in automated negotiation, this competition provides benchmarks and insights into multi-deal and supply chain negotiation, but the contribution is primarily organizational and incremental.
This paper presents the challenges and results of the 15th Automated Negotiating Agents Competition (ANAC 2025), focusing on multi-deal negotiations and concurrent negotiation in supply chain management. It analyzes competition outcomes and outlines future research directions.
This paper presents the primary research challenges and key findings from the 15th International Automated Negotiating Agents Competition (ANAC 2025), one of the official competitions of IJCAI 2025. We focus on two critical domains: multi-deal negotiations and the development of agents capable of concurrent negotiation within complex supply chain management environments. Furthermore, this work analyzes the results of the competition and outlines strategic directions for future iterations.
