ABSTRACT
This chapter addresses the team dimension in C environments by proposing an approach to develop a Team Decision Making (TDM) model, the Team-OODA (T-OODA), which takes its roots in Boyd's OODA loop. It proposes a modelling approach that provides guidelines and principles from which different TDM models representing different situations can be developed. The chapter describes this approach that is based on the following elements: a basic modular architecture for decision making, making it compatible with teamwork requirements; and Team Functioning Elements (TFE) supporting the TDM modular architecture. The TFEs are activities supporting the interactions within the team between team members, units of tasks and the different supporting tools. The modular architecture offers an interesting approach to derive different TDM models and shows the variable importance of TFE within these models.
