E-CARGO/RBC Research Guide: A Road Map for Researchers

Abstract

In addition to outlining the key components of the Environments – Classes, Agents, Roles, Groups, and Objects (E-CARGO) model and Role-Based Collaboration (RBC) methodology, this article aims to serve as a comprehensive research guide for scholars and researchers embarking on investigations within their research fields. By offering persuasive and illustrative arguments, the authors furnish valuable and pragmatic guidelines, equipping potential researchers with insights on selecting pertinent topics, crafting compelling scenarios, engaging in effective modeling practices, and designing rigorous experiments. The elucidation of these fundamental steps not only facilitates a clearer understanding of the intricate aspects of E-CARGO and RBC but also provides a road map for researchers to navigate the intricacies of conducting solid and insightful research within these frameworks.
