Technical Description of the Go*Team User Interface
Abstract
There is a need for analysis of the human aspects of network warfare. Go*Team is a game that creates an opportunity for cooperation and coordination between teams and individuals. By creating a simple competitive and collaborative environment where players compete against each other as individuals and as teams, human factors may be identified which could have a profound impact on the outcomes of future Network Centric Warfare wars. Go*Team is based on the traditional game of Go in which players place black and white stones onto a board in order to occupy territory on the board. Go*Team is designed to allow a number of competing teams to play Go with a number of players in each team. Every player on a team has a local view of the game. Players on the same team must collaborate if they want to have a more complete picture of the actual game state. Go*Team game has been designed as a research vehicle for investigating collaboration and cooperation between team members in a competitive and dynamic environment. The Go*Team has been extensively used to conduct simulation experiments in teaming environment by both DSTO and University of Wollongong.
