Abstract :
Role assignment is an important task in role-based collaboration (RBC). The process can be divided into three steps, i.e., agent evaluation, group role assignment, and role transfer. This paper formally identifies various group role assignment problems under acceptable assumptions; proposes solutions based on exhaustive-search; conducts experiments by randomly creating agent qualifications; analyzes the solutions´ performance based on experimental results, and indicates future work activities.
