本研究以物件導向技術分析並設計以代理人技術為基之供應鏈供需自動協商系統。此外使用代理人系統開發工具實作整個系統，以驗證系統之實用性和效能。系統分析及設計的過程使用統一塑模語言(Unified Modeling Language)，建立代理人為基的供需協商系統物件導向模型。此物件導向模型可供系統開發人員在設計具協商機制的代理人系統時參考，以進行系統化的開發程序並提升設計效能。同時，也將針對泛用的交易和協商相關的代理人系統進行抽象化分析，萃取此類系統的設計樣型。設計樣型將可作為具協商特性的代理人系統(不限於供應鏈的供需協商系統)之開發和設計框架。
為有效評斷系統功能，本研究設計績效指標以具體反應，並展現傳統協商方式與代理人為基方式的效能差別。最後使用ZEUS工具實作代理人為基的供應鏈供需自動協商系統，並套用於筆記型電腦產業供應鏈。同時也進行各式物資供需情境的模擬分析，以驗證代理人系統的可行性和優越性。

This research is to analyze and design an agent-based automatic supply and demand negotiation system for supply chain management. In addition, agent builder will be used to implement and verify the proposed system. The Unified Modeling Language (UML) will be used to build a complete Object-oriented Model for developing agent-based negotiation system. Therefore, object-oriented system analysis and design techniques will be heavily used in this research. Extra efforts will be delivered to extract design patterns from the object-oriented model. The developed deign patterns will be used or adapted to implement general agent systems that have negotiation mechanisms embedded.
Effectiveness indices to evaluate the agent-based system will be explored and studied. Good effectiveness indices should reflect the merits of using agent-based systems, in contrast to manual systems. Different scenarios will be specified and simulated on the developed virtual supply chain system for notebook computers.
