This text discusses the techniques to convert agricultural knowledge in the context of ontology and assist grape growers by providing this knowledge through decision support system. The key features of the book are: Presents the design & development of an ontology-based decision support system for integrated crop management. Discusses the techniques to convert agricultural knowledge in text to ontology. Focuses on an extensive study of various e-Negotiation protocols for automated negotiations Provides an architecture for predicting the opponent’s behaviour and various factors which affect the process of negotiation. The text is primarily written for graduate students, professionals, and academic researchers working in the fields of computer science and engineering, agricultural science, and information technology.
