Abstract

The software agent technology is one of the human assistive technologies that enables team working. In the process of achieving the team goals, an agent may need help from its teammate to perform its remaining task’s activities in order to meet the task’s deadline. However, certain conditions are needed to be fulfilled for the task transfer even though these would be a burden to the teammate. This paper shows the use of a Workload Manager for handling signals to allow the agent getting help from its teammate. It is also used to identify the available teammate agents that can really help. In this paper also, we simulate the transfer of the remaining task’s activities from one agent to another and demonstrate the process of awarding merit points to the agent that sincerely helps its teammate.
