Sinopsis

Excerpt from Computer Modeling and Negotiation Management

To avoid any misunderstanding, it is worth stating that this paper does not recommend the use of computer tools and methods to the exclusion of all others. As presented in Section 1 of this paper, the claim is that these tools and methods are a useful supplement to other established techniques of dispute resolution in complex negotiations. The introduction of models and modeling into anything but a voluntary and perhaps even non-binding process would be problematic. On the other hand, many negotiators, after gaining a certain familiarity with the tools outlined in this paper, and the philosophy behind the extending Of these tools, may indeed be willing to consider their serious and systematic use. While the idea of cooperating with a negotiating 'opponent' over a piece of 'foreign' technology is difficult to accept at first, it becomes more acceptable to negotiators and facilitators to the extent that it combines a qualitative feel for the processes of negotiation with a quantitative approach towards the modeling of contextual issues.

Excerpt from Computer Modeling and Negotiation Management

Clearly, the use of models in negotiation management can surface problems as well as solve them. Only disappointment is in store if one expects the use of models, or of any technology, for that matter, to be a panacea. Technology is easily abused, and the old computer aphorism of garbage in, garbage out applies just as strongly in this area. But in a complex negotiation, when there are few alternatives, the use of models can help explicate matters even without claiming to provide 'right' answers.

At this point, computer modeling for negotiation management does not require prodigious amounts of original research in such exotic fields as artificial intelligence and the mathematics of non-linear systems analysis. But although the uses of models discussed in this paper are, for the most part, not located in the giddy heights of computer science, they are relatively new to the world of negotiation. And instead of focusing on absolute correctness or mathematical elegance, negotiation management begins with the goal of providing negotiators a set of useful tools to help them perform a variety of functions. The emphasis is more on the synthesis and use of these computer tools by the parties than it is on the theoretical analysis of negotiation.
