Each agent $a_i$ is sent a \beginAlgo{} message by the supervisor and initiates its variable's value at random in the variable's domain.

The behaviour of each agent is defined by a finite state automata (see Figure~\ref{full_agent} for the big picture and Figures~\ref{beginning}, \ref{offerer}, \ref{receiver}, \ref{committed} and \ref{uncommitted} for focused extracts ).

Communication of potential moves and their corresponding potential gains helps agents determine who should act. A single move is an action wherevy an agent changes the current value of its variable to another possible value belonging to the variable's domain.

A coordinated move is similar but involves two agents changing the values of their variables. Note that a move can also be static if the change to \textit{another} value of the domain happens to be the current value of the variable.
