Session 1 (20 minutes)

Introduction and Presentations

The workshop host will welcome the participants and give an introduction to the schedule as well as the motivation for this workshop.

To kick-off the productive phase of the workshop, two expert presenters will give an impulse presentation of seven minutes each on their understanding of what cooperation is and why we need it. The presentations should give a quick overview selected topics of past and current research, then motivate the upcoming workshop phases.

Session 2 (20 minutes)

Discussion about WHY and WHICH

Beginning with this phase, we start dividing all participants into 5 small groups. We first start with a few minutes to break the ice and get to know each other before further discussing the topic of “Why is cooperation needed?” Most important results are documented on the miro board in form of post-its.

From crowded urban area to fast-speed highway, cooperation fits in many scenarios. The groups that formed beforehand will further discuss potential cooperation use cases ranging across all automation levels, traffic types and environmental conditions etc. All discussed use cases are documented on the Miro board in the form of a small visual and/or textual scenario description.

Break (10 minutes)

Session 3 (20 minutes)

Discussion about HOW

Groups are merged and examples of the results of session 2 are discussed. Afterwards, participants re-gather in their former groups and work on the objective to create an interaction design for at least one example scenario and document it on a prepared Miro frame.

Session 4 (30 minutes)

Wrap-up

Each group gives short presentation of their interaction design with focus on the most important aspects of their design based on the documented graphical representation as well as their understanding of why cooperation is needed in the presented scenario.
