Organizations operating in critical environments, such as hospitals and security agencies, have evolved into team-based, quasi-decentralized structures. Safety, efficiency, and quality performance in these organizations depend on the ability of the organization to support large scale collaboration-real time coordination across teams, tasks, and resources in a dynamic and risk-prone environment. This research begins to tackle problems of coordination in large-scale collaboration through field research in a trauma center, technology development of mobile devices for real time coordination, and laboratory studies to understand coordination across teams, people, and resources. The research aims to develop a theory of trajectory management and management tools in large-scale collaboration and practical solutions to cross-team coordination. Researchers from University of Maryland Medical School, Carnegie Mellon University, and University of Arizona will collaborate on this research. This project will improve theory in organization science, increase understanding of how to exploit new information technology in critical environments, and improve coordination in hospitals and other vital organizations.

在医院和安全机构等关键环境中运作的组织已演变为基于团队的准排放结构。这些组织中的安全性，效率和质量绩效取决于组织在动态且容易发生风险的环境中支持团队，任务和资源之间大规模协作时间协调的能力。这项研究开始通过创伤中心的现场研究，实时协调的移动设备的技术开发以及实验室研究来了解大规模合作的协调问题，以了解跨团队，人员和资源的协调。该研究旨在在大规模协作和实用解决方案中开发轨迹管理和管理工具的理论，以跨团队协调。马里兰大学医学院，卡内基·梅隆大学和亚利桑那大学的研究人员将在这项研究上合作。该项目将改善组织科学的理论，增进对如何在关键环境中利用新信息技术的理解，并改善医院和其他重要组织的协调。
