Exploring the Effect of Experience on Team Behavior: A Computational Approach

The paper presents the results of research aimed at contributing to a better understanding of the effect of team experience and learning on the performance of a design team. An agent-based model of the design team was developed, and computational simulations were utilized to study how agent’s knowledge changes by its use and what are the effects of such changes on the team behavior.
