Kawasaki, Japan / Sunnyvale, CA, USA, October 6, 2003 – Fujitsu Laboratories Ltd. and Fujitsu Laboratories of America, Inc. today announced that they have developed an open protocol to bring automated negotiation to the electronic marketplace.

By using computers to automate the negotiation process, a very large number of business terms can be used. This allows both sides to extract more value from each transaction than ever before. This will make e-commerce transactions more efficient, and potentially create entirely new markets.
