Popis:	This paper proposes a domain-independent generic trading platform that provides various auction and negotiation types. Requirements of the platform in the “generic” context, e.g. domain-independency, reusability, and flexibility, are identified and characterised. We propose two comprehensive concepts provided by the generic platform: (i) a basic order structure, and (ii) a basic transaction process. The generic order presents a domain-independent structure defined by multiple attributes. The basic transaction process is modelled at a high level of abstraction respectively various auction and negotiation protocols. Considering the basic transaction process as an action system leads to a finite sequence of states. Hence, the sequence of states is not fixed, and each state can be individually parameterised. These characteristics enable an individual configuration of an abstract execution model for negotiation processes and thus provides genericity in electronic negotiations.
