Abstract
This paper focuses on the agent realisation of the Markov Decision Process in the dynamic price problem. The use of MDP is caused by the properties of the trade system under consideration. Due to exploiting data mining tools, time series processing, clustering and other operations, the obtained interaction architecture has turned to be overloaded. Taking into account particular properties of the considered trade system as well as its model, which is MDP-based, this paper suggests a novel specific multiagent technique for MDP system realisation.
