I-P2 - Intelligent Process Panels to Support Coalition Operations

Abstract

I-X is a research programme with a number of different aspects intended to create a well-founded approach to allow humans and computer systems to cooperate in the creation or modification of some product or products such as documents, plans or designs. I-X may also be used to support more general collaborative activity. The I-X research draws on earlier work on O-Plan (Tate et. al., 1998; Tate et. al., 2000; Tate et. al., 2002), <I-N-OVA> (Tate, 1996), the Enterprise Project (Fraser and Tate, 1995; Stader, 1996); Uschold, et. al., 1998) and the TBPM project (Stader, 2000) but seeks to make the framework generic and to clarify terminology, simplify the approach taken, and increase re-usability and applicability of the core ideas. I-X Applications are being studied in a variety of areas. These currently include: (1) Coalition Operations (CoAX: I-LEED, I-DEEL); (2) Emergency and Unusual Procedure Assistance (I-Rescue); (3) Help Desk Support (I-Help); (4) Multi-Perspective Knowledge Modelling and Management (I-AKT); (5) Contextualised Presentations of Procedures and Plans (I-Tell); and (6) Collaborative Meeting and Task Support (I-Room, I-Space). An application of I-X Process Panels within a military Coalition context - part of the Coalition Agents eXperiment - CoAX (Allsopp et. al., 2001; Allsopp et. al., 2002) will be described in this paper.
