The major purpose of our research is to study cooperative planning for multi-agent system in time-critical environment. The RoboCup simulator league is the most interesting target for our research. Each agent of the team 11monkeys is realized as an autonomous agent that has two sets of rules, namely state dependent rules and position specified rules. We call the former dynamic role and the latt...
