Abstract

In this paper, we present and demonstrate SmartContractor: a distributed task assignment system based on the simple ContractNet protocol. In Japan, housewives doing side work in their free time at home is common practice which helps those that have children and the ability to do work. Recently, a franchised sideline business has grown. They started by establishing a systematic business process for sideline work shops, then franchising and networking those shops .In such franchised sideline businesses, it is of utmost necessity to allocate or delegate tasks among the shops by using a web-based network system. This business process of task allocation/delegation is very similar to the famous ContractNet protocol. Thus, a ContractNet approach is a smart and straightforward for us. The initial SmartContractor system has been delivered, and is improved with an Agile-based development process. The system will be implemented from September 2009. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
