Abstract:

Different agents in a multiagent system might have different solution quality or preference criteria. Therefore, when solving problems collaboratively using CBR, case reuse must take this into account. In this paper we propose \abarc , a model for multiagent case reuse, which divides case reuse in two stages: {\em individual reuse}, where agents generate full solutions internally, and {\em multiagent reuse}, where agents engage in a deliberation process in order to reach an agreement on a final solution. Specifically, \abarc\ is based on the idea of {\em amalgam}, which is a way to generate solutions by combining multiple solutions into one. We illustrate \abarc\ in the domain of interior room design
