  abstract = {Many applications of robots require a human operator to supervise 
and operate multiple robots. In particular, the operator may be required 
to resolve call requests when robots require assistance. Previous 
investigations assume that robots are independent of each other, and 
allow the operator to resolve one request at a time. However, key 
challenges and opportunities arise when robots work in tightly-coordinating 
teams. Robots depend on each other, and thus a single failing robot 
may cause multiple call requests to be issued (by different robots). 
Moreover, when the operator switches control to a robot, its teammates 
must often wait idly until the call request is resolved.  We 
contrast previous approaches with two novel distributed methods, where 
the call-request resolution is itself considered a collaborative problem-solving 
activity, and non-failing 
robots use their knowledge of the coordination to assist the operator. 
We empirically compare the different approaches in several scenarios involving 
tight coordination, where an operator seeks a dead robot in order 
to assist it. Extensive experiments with 25 human operators show that 
this new technique is superior to existing methods, in terms of reducing 
the time to locate the dead robot. We also show that the new method 
has much more consistent performance across different operators.
