The Strategic Partners Network’s Extraction: The XStrat.Net Project

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Communications in Computer and Information Science ((CCIS,volume 112))

Abstract

The firms in the business environment have to choose adequate partners in order to sustain their competitive advantage and their economic performance. Plus, the creation of special communities consisting of these partners is essential for the life-long development of these latter and the firms creating them. The research project XStrat.Net aims at the identification of factors and indicators about the organizations for the modelling of intelligent agents –XStrat intelligent agents- and the engineering of a software –XStrat- to process these backbones intelligent agents. Through the use of the software, the firms will be able to select the needed partners for the creation of special communities for the purpose of learning, interest or innovation. The XStrat.Net project also intends to provide guidelines for the creation of the special communities.
