In this paper, we propose a new approach integrating an agent- based modelling with case-based reasoning that utilizes similarity measures and preferences module. The main purpose of our study is to compare and evaluate the most suitable similarity measure for our case. Furthermore, operators that are usually geographically dispersed, have to collaborate and negotiate to achieve mutual agreements, especially when their proposals (diagnosis) lead to a conflicting situation. The experimentation shows that the suggested agent-based approach is very interesting and efficient for operators and experts who collaborate in INOTIS enterprise.}, year = {2016}, journal = {International Journal of Interactive Multimedia and Artificial Intelligence}, volume = {4}, number = {2}, pages = {73-82}, month = {12/2016}, issn = {1989-1660}, url = {http://www.ijimai.org/journal/sites/default/files/files/2016/11/ijimai20164_2_11_pdf_12710.pdf}, doi = {10.9781/ijimai.2016.4211}, }
