Abstract

In this chapter, we modelize an interchange commerce system basen on the economic concept of utility function. A cognitive agent controls the interchanges of the clients in her market. When interchanges are not possible any more, the agent becomes a client of a higher market, giving place to a hierarchical market system. Now, she behaves according to what she has learned from her clients. Apart from physical resources, intangible goods such as knowledge are also interchanged. This cooperative and competitive structure is formalized via process algebra.
