For that, we propose a novel allocation problem that matches teams with tasks based on the similarity between the competencies required by the tasks and the competencies offered by teams. We formally cast our problem as an optimisation problem, characterise the size of its search space and outline a heuristic approach to solve it.}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 20th International Conference on Autonomous Agents and MultiAgent Systems}, pages = {1504–1506}, numpages = {3}, keywords = {team formation, task allocation, optimisation, heuristics}, location = {Virtual Event, United Kingdom}, series = {AAMAS '21} }
