Summary:

Socially situated planning provides one mechanism for improving the social awareness of agents. Obviously this work is in the preliminary stages and many of the limitation and the relationship to other work could not be addressed in such a short chapter. The chief limitation, of course, is the strong commitment to defining social reasoning solely at the meta-level, which restricts the subtlety of social behavior. Nonetheless, our experience in some real-world military simulation applications suggest that the approach, even in its preliminary state, is adequate to model some social interactions, and certainly extends the state- of- the art found in traditional training simulation systems.
