Multi-task Assignment in Information Technology Companies Based on the E-CARGO Model

In the process of Research and Development (R&D), the staff in Information Technology (IT) companies forms a collaboration system. Task assignment is very important in the process of R&D. Firstly, this paper formalizes the staff and task assignment problems (STAPs) based on the Environment, Class, Agent, Role, Group and Object (E-CARGO) model. Next, we propose an algorithm for the STAPs. Then, we verify the proposed algorithm with experiments. The experimental result shows that the proposed algorithm is effective.
