  • Abstract
    The Karma-Teamcore framework focuses on rapidly integrating distributed, heterogeneous agents and tasking them via an abstract team-oriented program. The framework provides wrappers that encapsulate general teamwork reasoning and automatically generate the necessary coordination for robust execution of this abstract program. We describe the Karma-Teamcore framework and present an example of its successful application, namely, the simulated evacuation of civilians stranded in a hostile area
