Abstract

SharedPlans is an agent teamwork model that provides a formalization of the conditions under which a group of agents has a collaborative plan. This paper describes a general framework for implementing SharedPlans theory that addresses the computational issues of team formation, group plan elaboration and plan execution, involving coordination, communication and monitoring. The framework includes a team-oriented programming language for specifying recipes for SharedPlans, and an extension to a BDI architecture with several meta-plans for interpreting the plan language. We indicate how the formal requirements for the establishment of SharedPlans are fulfilled within the framework.
