The cost collaborative management of supply chain is a new topic which integrates three fields: cost management, intelligent application, supply chain management, and develops one of the most important tools on how to apply multi-agents and case-based reasoning to the improvement of cost collaborative management. This study has two objectives: one is to develop the multi-agents system for CCM; the other is to construct a novel framework model of cost collaborative management in supply chain
