Making Project Team Recommendations from Online Information Sources

Abstract

We are developing an Internet platform called MediaTeam that provides a marketplace connecting media content consumers to communities of media content creators. The platform is enabled by our method for automated assembly of virtual project teams. Media creators use the automated team assembler to quickly identify and team with collaborators. The team assembly platform factors in how the skills, work, and communication styles of team members complement each other into its team recommendation process. We are now testing the teaming and collaboration platforms with video creators and seek to launch by the summer.
