The paper describes a general interaction algorithm for coordinating multi-agent plans. Triggered by a communication and negotiation protocol the coordination framework reconciles situations with negative interferences as well as it handles positive opportunities for mutual benefits. Coordination is understood then as a mechanism to reconcile plans evaluating interactions among agents. The process is a dynamic representation of the environment where the structure of tasks goes from being a set of uncoordinated plans to be a set of coordinated plans.
