SUMMARY AND FUTURE DIRECTIONS
7.1 SUMMARY
Figure 6-1 : Virtual AI / human negotiation demo .
In this paper , we introduced a NAP-based solution for enhancing supply chain efficiency using AI agents to negotiate on behalf of humans . This solution addresses a range of issues in intercompany coordination humans currently handle . Many problems could be mitigated , such as heavy consumption of human resources , lengthy time to complete coordination , low precision in considerations , and inappropriate agreements due to human errors .
We mainly focused on the manufacturing and logistics industries ( Section 2 Motivation ), providing a conceptual explanation of the NAP solution , an overview of its technical ( Section 3 Technology ) and business aspects ( Section 4 Business ), and an introduction to several case studies ( Section 5 Case Studies ). Each case study powerfully demonstrates the effectiveness of this solution .
We have developed a demonstration of the NAP solution accessible via the Internet ( Section 6 Invitation to NAP Trials ). Interested parties who wish to have a trial are encouraged to contact the authors .
