Abstract
We present a model of the MAS (Multi-Agent System) devoted to collaborative teleoperation architectures. The proposed MAS formalism is based on a new approach combining astutely two research area: MAS and CSCW (Computer Supported Collaborative Work). In the first area, a formal model of the MAS (Ferber approach) is used to give us features of the agent. The second area provides us a useful approach of collaboration based on the communication, coordination and production theories.A formal model of the collaboration is proposed. This formalism is combined astutely with the Ferber model to provide new collaborative features of the agent. The result formalism is used to achieve the conceptual architecture of the MAS supporting full collaborative teleoperation on the Internet. Finally the system is evaluated and some results are discussed.
