Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0133400A2] A set of graphical user interface templates for the creation and editing of Adaptive Trade Specifications (ATS) for usage in an Electronic Marketplace is disclosed. These graphical user interface templates are called ATS Wizards. ATS Wizards allow users to construct and edit Adaptive Trade Specifications in order to perform optimized electronic transactions over the Web. The invention describes the structure of ATS Wizards and the method by which they facilitate the instantiation and management of ATS's. ATS Wizards constitute a user centric entry point to a system that performs match making among traders in an electronic marketplace according to item specifications provided by those traders via the ATS Wizards and the generated adaptive trade specifications. A trader will also use the wizards to specify an optimizeable Trade Objective, based on which the ATS system will recommend the optimal transaction for this trader. This optimal transaction specifies items and quantities specified by other traders within the electronic marketplace.
