Several argumentation frameworks and systems have been proposed for collaborative decision making earlier. However, limited decision support is provided to stakeholders. In an argumentation process, stakeholders tend to form groups, called faction groups based on their opinions and exchange of arguments. Each faction group is usually led by a faction leader in the group. Identification of faction groups and leaders in argumentation becomes an important challenge which has not been addressed adequately in the past. The faction assessment in argumentation provides the decision maker with more information about faction groups and their opinions towards the given issue and it helps the decision maker with logical and analytical competency to assess and analyze post-decision effects on each faction group and faction leaders, and make rational decisions. In this paper, we present a framework for identifying faction groups and faction leaders in an argumentation process using the K-means clustering algorithm. It is evaluated using a data set: an argumentation tree developed by a group of 24 stakeholders in an argumentation process using our web-based intelligent argumentation system for collaborative decision support. The experiment results show that the framework works effectively for faction assessment.","PeriodicalId":200122,"journal":{"name":"2012 International Conference on Collaboration Technologies and Systems (CTS)","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124816914","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In many cases, for model interoperability a dataset from a given model or source needs to be transformed into a different data format required by a subsequent model or processor. This paper presents the SUNPRISM approach and software tools aimed at supporting collaborative scientific exploration via new capabilities for combining data transformations, model simulations, and output visualizations in application scenarios developed for climate change research. The SUNPRISM framework's defining characteristics are a visual object-based interface for scenario configuration, a workflow-based environment that allows code generation and dataflow scenario execution, and data visualization capabilities for 3D environments, including for immersive virtual environments such as CAVE. The paper describes the proposed approach and its supporting tools, the SUNPRISM Scenario Manager and the SUNPRISM Visualizer, and illustrates them on an application scenario in which data from the National Digital Forecast Database is retrieved and visualized in 3D. A brief comparison with related work and an outline of directions for future work are also included in the paper.","PeriodicalId":200122,"journal":{"name":"2012 International Conference on Collaboration Technologies and Systems (CTS)","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114617553","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A great deal of research has explored how to support deictic reference in computer-mediated conversation, leading to what appears to be a general consensus among system builders in favor of a multi-mouse approach. While the multi-mouse provides an application-independent, context-free deictic reference solution, not only is it typically more costly to build, but also the usability of the tool regressively deteriorates as the number of users gets larger. Alternatives to the multi-mouse are application-specific, context-laden pointing mechanisms. Different research showed that the context-specific pointing conveys more information than a mere arrow. Yet, the context-free, multi-mouse pointing mechanism is generally taken as the panacean deixis solution in the groupware. Moreover, there have not been enough studies investigating tailorability or appropriatability of those different approaches. The needs for theories about when people profit from different kinds of support for pointing are current and large. We studied groups engaged in a highly coordinated, co-located task. We studied groups of three and used systems in which deictic reference could be achieved by a number of mechanisms. Our analysis shows that people chose pointing techniques that minimized the effort of communication; however, as the reference task became more complex, they employed more complex tools. Explicit support for pointing is desirable to support complex reference tasks, but not all pointing mechanisms match all cases. Different tools entail different deictic behaviors.","PeriodicalId":200122,"journal":{"name":"2012 International Conference on Collaboration Technologies and Systems (CTS)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129983631","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

When autonomous agents associated with different enterprises negotiate about rival resources, coordination is a major challenge. Information provided by the agents is a fruit of a poisonous tree because the selfish agents have an incentive to lie strategically which makes the revealed information unreliable and misleading for a central authority. Moreover, the agents might not be willing to reveal information due to privacy concerns. Thus, there is a need for sophisticated mechanisms in collaborative systems that facilitate the coordination of non-cooperative agents. This paper deals with rival machine scheduling of one or more homogeneous machines by autonomous agents. Overall objectives are the minimization of the collective total weighted tardiness and Pareto efficient outcomes. We have developed a mediated negotiation protocol drawing on quotas for the acceptance of contract proposals. The protocol ensures that the agents accept sufficient proposals such that they can overcome individual local optima and achieve Pareto superior outcomes. For evaluation purposes, we have conducted several computational experiments. The experiments show that the proposed protocol achieves beneficial outcomes.","PeriodicalId":200122,"journal":{"name":"2012 International Conference on Collaboration Technologies and Systems (CTS)","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125065580","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
