Abstract

The low prices and the friendly usage of the mobile devices are contributing to increase the number of people who are using them for several tasks, as to pay a bill in an Internet banking, purchase a product, connect to a close printer and so on. Due to this, it is necessary develop applications which can cope with these new user habits. This paper proposes a context-aware negotiation model for mobile commerce between two participants, using mobile agents and taking into account the mobile device personalization. The model copes with the context-aware concepts through the use of created profiles. With these profiles it is possible to automate some tasks depending on the context, as for example the user identity.
