Coordination Engineering and Internet Implementation
Beyond "mere" implementation, fundamental issues
require research in Coordination Engineering.
Better algorithm for creating loop-free justifications for support
of Pareto optimality.
Allowing hypothetical changes and simulation of effects, with
pre-notifications.
Domain-specific filtering of notifications.
Notifications should be transparent to some and opaque to others,
as in a supply chain.
Best representation of committed actions and sunk costs.
The Internet research is how to layer this coordination functionality.
Should some message routing be embedded in "smart
routers"?
How best to embed action/decision detection in software
apps? Is there a principled way to do this?
This is a new field of research that offers a rich exploration
space for academics and the potential to really leverage the
Internet for both individual users and large companies.
