Abstract—Our objective is to build software agents that can support the operations of coalition teams. One way to provide support is to handle some of the routine communciation between human team members, allowing them to concentrate on the job of completing their tasks. To build agents that can do this job, we need to understand the kinds of communciations that take place between the human team members. Accordingly we have analysed the communications that take place between team members completing a prototypical simulated task. In this paper, we describe two independent analyses of the transcript of the communication between members of a human team enagaged in a military task. We give the results of the analyses, compare them, and summarise what we learned from the two exercises. I.
