UNITE - An Agent-Oriented Teamwork Environment
نویسندگان
چکیده
Providing seamless, fluid interaction between team members, contractors, consultants from any world-wide location stimulates virtual organisations. The agent-based team work environment UNITE offers team members intuitive and ubiquitous access to each other, and to information and resources of their project, secure and transparent to their physical workplaces and their own tools. Thus, team focus will remain wholly on the project. In this article we will provide informations about the underlying architectural model, the application of agents in particular, and show how we integrated external tools.

Team-Oriented Agent Coordination in the RETSINA Multi-Agent System
Complex tasks are often solved by teams because no one individual has the collective expertise, information, or resources required for the e ective completion or performance of a task. This paper describes a prototype, implemented in the RETSINA multi-agent infrastructure, in which agents interact with each other via capability-based and team-oriented coordination. We propose a model of team-or...
متن کاملTask-Oriented Conversational Behavior of Agents for Collaboration in Human-Agent Teamwork
Coordination is an essential ingredient for human-agent teamwork. It requires team members to share knowledge to establish common grounding and mutual awareness among them. This paper proposes a behavioral architecture CBDI that enhances the knowledge sharing using natural language communication between team members. Collaborative conversation protocols and resource allocation mechanism have be...
متن کاملBeyond Distributed AI, Agent Teamwork in Ubiquitous Computing
Agent teamwork has been widely studied in the fields of Distributed AI. Much success has been achieved in defining agent teamwork theory to explain how agents should act together as a team and in developing programming frameworks to simulate team coordinations in software environment. With the advent of ubiquitous computing technology, agent teamwork research will be pushed to its limit, facing...
متن کاملThe Semantics of MALLET-An Agent Teamwork Encoding Language
MALLET is a team-oriented agent programming language for specifying teamwork knowledge and behaviors; one interpreter of MALLET has already been implemented in the CAST (Collaborative Agents for Simulating Teamwork) system. This paper defines an operational semantics for MALLET in terms of a transition system. This is important not only in guiding the implementation of other interpreters for MA...
متن کاملComparing Teamwork Modeling in an Empirical Approach
Modeling teams is becoming an increasingly active topic for the research communities of multi-agent systems, cognitive modeling, and decision making. Many research efforts have tried to use software-agents to model teamwork. However, we found little work has been done comparing different methods with common experiments. The Agent-based Modeling and Behavior Representation (AMBR) project has com...
