Resolving conflict throughout organizations requires a programmatic infrastructure and a committed management team. Leaders must recognize the need to approach conflict by building a format for learning, creating and managing an effective conflict management program. Careful attention to the elements of design and the stages of development can make all the difference in building a sustainable a...

CSCW(Computer-Supported Cooperative Work) and SPT (Software Process Technology) are two important, interrelated research areas. This paper investigates some key issues in CSCW from the SPT point of view. We present a classification and characterization of cooperative work mainly from the process point of view, propose a general process architecture supporting all kinds of cooperative work, and ...

Excerpt] In this article we look at the traditional approach to workplace conflict, the evolution of conflict management, criticism of this process by progressive and traditional critics, and then consider whether they can be reconciled by taking what we call a strategic view of conflict management in the workplace. This view calls for an alignment between the goals of the conflict management s...

In this paper, we consider optimal resolution of air traffic (AT) conflicts. Aircraft are assumed to cruise within a given altitude layer and are modeled as a kinematic system with constant velocity and curvature bounds. Aircraft cannot get closer to each other than a predefined safety distance. For such system of multiple aircraft, we consider the problem of planning optimal paths among given ...

In order to support both traditional short transaction and long cooperative transactions, we propose a novel timestamp ordering approach. With this timestamp ordering method, short transactions can be processed in the traditional way, as if there are no cooperative transactions, therefore not be blocked by long transactions; cooperative transactions will not be aborted when there is a conflict ...

A connict resolution architecture for multi-agent hybrid systems is presented. The agents are considered as players in a noncooperative, zero-sum dynamic game where the actions of other agents are modeled as disturbances. If the saddle solution to the game results in no collision for the worst possible disturbance then coordination among agents is not necessary. In case the saddle solution is n...
