 ==== Session Result
 All SessionStates have a getResult function that returns a SessionResult. The SessionResult is usually used after a session ends, to collect final synopsis, containing the final utilities, errors and penalties for each party.  
+Generally, the SessionResult contains the agreement bids of the parties that reached an agreement. Not all participating parties may reach an agreement.  It also contains penalties, which are double values. 
+THere are a number of conventions to compute the "final utility" of a session. These conventions however only can be applied if the profile used for that party is a publicy available utility space. In that case, the final utility is 
+* if the party did reach an agreement:
+ * the utility of the agreement, minus the penalty value
+* otherwise (party did not reach an agreement)
+ * if the utilityspace contains a reservation bid: the utility of the reservation bid
+ * otherwise (no reservation bid): 0.
