  • Abstract
    Project execution modes describe the set of possible alternatives in which the project can be performed by a group of agents with multiple skills and different performance levels. In this paper, we present a formalized model for automatically generating the project execution modes. Based on this model, an algorithm is described for finding the set of possible agents´ coalitions to perform the project. Experiments are presented showing the potential of our approach.
