오늘날의 1세대 구매 에이전트는 상품의 전체 특징 변수(attribute)에 대해서보다는 주로 판매자들이 제시한 가격만 비교해서 구매 행위를 대행해 주고 있으며, 간혹 가격 이외의 변수에 대해 비교를 해주는 에이전트의 경우에도 협상(negotiation) 과정에서 전체 변수를 적절히 고려해주는 협상 모델은 찾아보기 힘들다. 따라서, 전자 상거래의 협상 모델(negotiation model)을 가격 변수뿐만 아니라 상품의 전체 변수로 확장시켜 주는 것이 절실히 요구되고 있다. 또한 수많은 전자상거래 업체가 나타남에 여러 도메인간 에이전트 이동 기술과 도메인의 상품 특성에 따른 협상을 진행하는 적응적 에이전트의 필요성이 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 유틸리티(utility)이론과 간결한 휴리스틱스(simple heuristics)에 바탕을 두어서 가격, 상품의 특성, 보장 기간, 서비스 정책 등에 대해서 협상을 벌이는 다중변수 에이전트 협상 프레임워크인 Pmart를 제시하고 이를 확장하여 다중 도메인에서 에이전트의 이동성을 보장하고, 각 도메인의 협상 특수 지식을 XML로 제공받아 적응성을 가지는 적응적 구매 에이전트를 제안한다.
