Moreover, such agentization would enable dynamic teaming of humans and resources for accomplishing organizational missions and responding to unanticipated crises. The scale, heterogeneity, and dynamics of a human organization provide a rich source of research problems for agent technology. Prof. Jim Hendler is the program manager for this program. In this framework, software developers first specify an agent organization through team-oriented programming. This implemented framework promises to reduce the software development effort in agent integration while providing robustness due to its teamwork-based foundations.
Information extraction is a major component of the project.
We are developing machine learning and statistical text analysis techniques to facilitate information extraction. The main goal of this effort is to investigate how ontologies help in agent coordination and communication. Prof. Jim Hendler is the program manager for this program.
