                  be considered to be primarily driven by self
                  interests. Previous work in this area has prescribed
                  a strategy of reciprocal behavior, based on past
                  interactions, for promoting and sustaining
                  cooperation among such self-interested agents. Here
                  we present a new mechanism where agents base their
                  decisions both on historical data as well as on
                  future interaction expectations. A decision
                  mechanism is presented that compares current helping
                  cost with expected future savings from interaction
                  with the agent requesting help. We experiment with
                  heterogeneous agents that have varying expertise for
