This paper describes a new, domain-independent design and implementation of TAEMS-based Java Agent Framework/Generalized Partial Global Planning agents that targets the DARPA Coordinators program challenge problem environment. It offers a description of the challenge problem environment, a mechanism utilized to provide abstract coordination problem contexts that avoids complete problem centralization, generalized coordination protocols, and some preliminary performance results.
