有显着的兴趣在代理建模团队合作。近年来，人们已经广泛接受，可以将团队合作与任务工作分开，使用团队合作模型在架构级别为独立于领域的团队合作提供支持。然而，现有的团队合作模式（无论是在理论上还是在实践中）几乎只关注成就目标，而忽略了维护目标，即一个命题的价值要随着时间的推移而得到维护。这样的维护目标既存在于任务中（即，代理在任务执行时采取行动来维持条件），以及在团队合作中（即，代理采取行动来维护团队）。本文提出了在任务和团队协作维护机制，允许灵活选择的维护协议。该机制是集成和评估的两个团队合作架构位于代理团队：DIESEL，实现团队合作和任务架构，建立在Soar之上，和BITE，基于物理行为的机器人的架构。我们提供了这些实现的细节，并从实验结果证明了支持协作维护过程的好处，在几个动态丰富的域。我们表明，使用协作维护导致在所有领域的任务性能显着改善。
There is significant interest in modeling teamwork in agents. In recent years, it has become widely accepted that it is possible to separate teamwork from taskwork, providing support for domain-independent teamwork at an architectural level, using teamwork models. However, existing teamwork models (both in theory and practice) focus almost exclusively on achievement goals, and ignore maintenance goals, where the value of a proposition is to be maintained over time. Such maintenance goals exist both in taskwork (i.e., agents take actions to maintain a condition while a task is executing), as well as in teamwork (i.e., agents take actions to maintain the team). This paper presents mechanisms for collaborative maintenance in both taskwork and teamwork, allowing for flexible selection of the maintenance protocol. The mechanism is integrated and evaluated in two teamwork architectures for situated agent teams: DIESEL, an implemented teamwork and taskwork architecture, built on top of Soar, and BITE, an architecture for physical behavior-based robots. We provide details of these implementations, and the results from experiments demonstrating the benefits of support for collaborative maintenance processes, in several dynamic rich domains. We show that the use of collaborative maintenance leads to significant improvement in task performance in all domains.
