Integrating Agent Metrics for Cooperative Inter-disiciplinary Research and a Global Sustainability Literacy

Abstract

Most interpretations of interdisciplinary research recognized that there are several constraints on long-term research activities imposed by competing interest, conflicting objectives, and capacity of skills and resource. This fundamental understanding leads to aggregating a performance indicator associated to a researcher, student, or educator. At different phases of research and development (R&D), several performance factors can arise to manage interdisciplinary skills and to assess the contribution of the different participant. Cases where conflicting interests can arise, and demanding scenarios shows that an individual needs to be conformable using different skills. A deductive method can also take place after a content analysis between agents, which helps to recommend effective decisions that are prompted at a short time frame or when different sustainability perspectives lead to a lack of specificity, deterring progress. Agent impact assessment (AIA) therefore, can be applied to identify the weak and stronger influences of socio-economic hotspots, associated with the impact assessment for a sustainable industry. When integrating agent metrics for impact assessment, a cooperative research and work environment evolves, and co-creates a better literacy of sustainability transitions in the market sector. This literacy can be seen from the ways researchers, students, and academic institutional party roles involve in the research and development phase for academic learning and how proposed methods by agents can be monitored and simultaneously intervened for better sustainability literacy. The framework of integrating agent metrics in academic setting, enriches the potential of agent performance, while facilitating awareness of sustainability education across different disciples of sciences.
