A team is a unique example of collection of agents held in dynamic and functional relationships over brief periods of time by mutual belief and joint commitment. The central hypothesis in this paper is that for effective teamwork, agents should be provided with explicit time lines and an underlying model of teamwork based on a concept of team knowledge. The model also emphasizes on the team age...

Simulation techniques, tools and environments, agent cooperation 1. ABSTRACT In this paper we present a lightweight teamwork implementation through use of abstraction hierarchies. The basis of this implementation is ADAPT, which supports Autonomous Dynamic Agent Planning for Teamwork. ADAPT’s novelty stems from how it succinctly decomposes teamwork problems into two separate planners: a task ne...

1. ABSTRACT In this paper we present a lightweight teamwork implementation through use of abstraction hierarchies. The basis of this implementation is ADAPT, which supports Autonomous Dynamic Agent Planning for Teamwork. ADAPT’s novelty stems from how it succinctly decomposes teamwork problems into two separate planners: a task network for the set of activities to be performed by a specific age...

This paper explores processes and outcomes from virtual teamwork in a university course in HumanComputer Interaction. The course has students both onand off-campus, with a very wide geographic distribution. The novel approach adopted in the course organized students into both small teams (three students) and into larger units (a group of six teams). Teams worked collaboratively, using a variety...

Effective team work is regarded as a key factor for success inmissions performed by fighter aircraft in a Tactical Air Unit (TAU). Manyfactors contribute to how a team will succeed in their mission. From the existingliterature on teamwork, Salas, Sims and Burke [1], suggested five main factorsand three supporting mechanisms for effective team work. These were proposedas the ...

The behavioral processes in which people manage independent work, and/or the affective, cognitive, and motivative states emerging during working are usually dedicated to “teamwork”. Behavioral involve actions like communication, coordination, expertise sharing, help. Emergent involved, ie., mutual respect psychological safety.
