Aim: Workflow and Messaging “Catch All” • Can take ANY requirement to: • Handle an issue • Perform an activity • Add a constraint • Deals with these via: • Manual activity • Internal capabilities • External capabilities • Reroute or delegate to other panels or agents • Plan and execute a composite of these capabilities • Receives reports and interprets them to: • Understand current status of issues, activities and constraints • Understand current world state, especially status of process products • Help user control the situation • Copes with partial knowledge
Approach: I-X Process Panels • To explore task driven cooperation via “issue handling”, “activity performance” and “constraint management” using shared models of activity and the artifacts involved. These shared models use the <I-N-OVA> constraint ontology for activity and the more general <I-N-CA> constraint model for synthesized artifacts • <I-N-OVA> & <I-N-CA> - Issues, Nodes, Constraints and Annotations • Provision of a modular task and process management facility on the CoABS Grid and other communications mechanisms including: • issue handling • workflow and coordination • constraint management • multi-modal visualization/presentation • respect of agent organizational structures for tasking and authority management • consideration of multiple cooperative agent domains and workspaces • Provision of Generic CoABS Grid Task and Process Management facilities through I-X Process Panels (I-P2) and related Decision Support (I-Think), Planning (I-Plan) and Domain/Process Editing (I-DE) tools
