MIT-CICESE Collaborative Effort on Asynchronous Distributed Meeting Environment for Collaborative Software Development

该研究将探索机制，以减轻传统的会议和谈判过程中发生的软件开发过程中的缺点。 将确定协同设计会议环境的要求，并探讨满足这些要求的机制。 这项研究是CAIRO（协作代理交互控制和同步）的努力，这是达芬奇在智能系统工程实验室的变更管理项目的核心的一部分。 该项目旨在测试分布式通信基础设施，自动协调和促进机制，以及设计原理捕获（组记忆）框架。 国家科学技术委员会与墨西哥恩塞纳达上级教育和科学研究中心的合作包括研究和教育两个方面。 CICESE开发的设计原理捕获（群体记忆）系统将与CAIRO环境相结合，CICESE的工作将集中在智能代理代表的设计上，智能代理代表将自动确定CAIRO内的用户偏好。 耦合和MIT系统将为探索分布式协作提供一个有效的环境。

The research will explore mechanisms to mitigate shortcomings of traditional meeting and negotiation processes that take place during software development. Requirements for collaborative design meeting environments will be identified and mechanisms to satisfy these requirements will be explored. This research is part of the CAIRO (Collaborative Agent Interaction Control and Synchronization) effort which is the core of the DaVinci change management project at the Intelligent Systems Engineering Laboratory. The project aims to test a distributed communication infrastructure, automated coordination and facilitation mechanisms, and a design-rationale capture (group-memory) framework. The CONACYT collaboration with the Centro de Investigacion (Cientifica y de Educacion Superior de Ensenada (CICESE) in Mexico includes both research and educational thrusts. The design rationale capture (group memory) system developed at CICESE will be integrated with the CAIRO environment, and the CICESE effort will focus on the design of intelligent-agent representatives that will automatically determine user preferences within CAIRO. Coupling and MIT systems will provide an effective environment for exploring distributed collaboration.
