<title>ABSTRACT</title>
<p>We study strategic delay in bargaining under uncertainty. First, we discuss bargaining situations in which dynamics and uncertainty may induce the use of strategic delay by intelligent agents. Then, we analyze strategic delay under various circumstances. Finally, we propose an agent reasoning mechanism to decide when and how to deploy strategic delay.</p>
