A method, system, and scheduler mobile for scheduling events on behalf of participants, wherein the agent receives from the event organizer a list of participants along with an intended timeframe for the event. In a first embodiment, the agent is dispatched to at least one calendar server storing participants' calendar information, retrieves that information for the intended timeframe, and schedules the event. If no suitable timeframe exists for all participants, the agent invokes negotiating agents of the participants for rescheduling previously booked events conflicting with the multi-party event. According to a second embodiment, a plurality of scheduler mobile agents are dispatched on a plurality of calendar servers. Each scheduler mobile agent retrieves calendar information related to participants whose calendars are stored on the server, and creates a timeframe proposal for the event. The scheduler mobile agents further negotiate with each other based on the timeframe proposals for the final event.
