What is Recent Dissertations about?
This dissertation presents a model and automated algorithms for collaborative design. The model calls for individuals to independently create designs achieving their own goals, and then collectively derive a single unified design using automated negotiation techniques. From a software engineering perspective, the model provides parallelism, simplicity, rationale, and reuse. From a negotiation porspective, the model provides multiple agent preference maximization and novel resolution synthesis. From an artificial intelligence porspective, the algorithms provide automation for the complex processes of conflict detection, resolution synthesis, and resolution selection. This dissertation describes how the selfish interests of individuals or subgroups can productively aid the derivation of robust collaborative designs through the automated negotiation of their conflicts. This dissertation describes formal representations for modeling individual perspectives, design conflicts, and subtasks involved in negotiation. Specifically de~ribed are representations for: (1) goals and preferences over domain operators, objects, and relations, (2) categories of design and goal conflicts, and (3) cat
