| TITLE: |
Organizational Self-Design in worth-oriented domains
|
|||
| ABSTRACT: |
This chapter presents an approach to
organizational-self design (OSD), a method of
designing organizations at run-time in which the
agents are responsible for generating their own
organizational structures. OSD is especially
suitable for environments that are dynamic, albeit
slowly changing. Such environments preclude the use
of static, design-time generated, organizational
structures, and yet contain certain characteristics
and conditions that change slowly, if at all, and
these characteristics can be harnessed for the
purposes of creating stable organizational
structures. This chapter extends the existing
approaches to OSD by applying them to worth-oriented
domains - that is, domains in which problems are
represented using TAEMS based task structures. This
chapter presents our OSD primitives and framework
and discusses some interesting future lines of
research.
