Group Role Assignment with Busyness Degree and Cooperation and Conflict Factors
E. Richard Brownlee, Haibin Zhu · 2020
In collaboration, one of the most important and most challenging problems is role assignment. This paper presents a unique approach to a "group role assignment" (GRA) problem that considers two previously established constraints within the same GRA problem. They are the busyness degree of different agents, and cooperation and conflict factors between agents. The aim of solving a "Group Role Assignment with Busyness degree and Cooperation and Conflict Factors" (GRABCF) problem is to assign agents to specific tasks in order to obtain the most efficient team possible. This paper's contributions include a formalization of the GRABCF problem, a simplified matrix to express cooperation and conflict, a practical solution for this problem, and simulations to prove the benefits of solving the GRABCF problem.
