Abstract

Our work ponders on collaborative interactions in Collaborative Virtual Environments for Training, with an emphasis on collaborative interactions between Real Humans and Virtual Humans working as a team. We put forward a new model of collaborative interaction and a set of tools that describes and defines such interactions.
