Tässä tutkielmassa tutkitaan kirjallisuuskatsauksen keinoin käsitteitä hajautettu kognitio ja team of teams. Hajautettu kognitio perustuu ideaan, jossa kognitio ei tapahdu vain yksilön mielessä, vaan hajautuu sosiaalisissa interaktioissa, artefaktien avulla ja ajallisesti. Team of teams on ytimeltään tiimipohjainen, voimakkaasti hajautettuun päätöksentekoon ja yhteyksiin perustuva organisaatiomalli. Kuten tutkimus osoittaa, kumpikin käsite on laajentunut koskettamaan useita konteksteja viime vuosina. Kumpikin käsite on myös muuttunut koherentimmaksi erilaisten mallien ja viitekehysten muodossa. Kuitenkin laajempien organisaatiomallien ja hajautetun kognition yhdistäminen on ollut kirjallisuudessa vähäistä. Tämä tutkielma tuo lisää sisältöä kyseiseen kontekstiin reflektoimalla erityisesti Yhdysvaltojen armeijan Task Force:n käyttämää Team of Teams (Kuvio 2) organisaatiomallia hajautetun kognition näkökulmasta, käyttäen DiCoT-viitekehystä (Kuvio 4). In this thesis a literature review is conducted on the concepts of distributed cognition and team of teams. Distributed cognition is based on the idea that instead of cognitive functions happening only in the minds of individuals, it is distributed with social interactions, artefacts, and time. Teams of teams in its core is a team-based, highly decentralized and interconnected organizational model. As the research shows, both concepts have had large variety of different context they have been implemented in recent years. Both concepts have also had a trend of coherence through different models and frameworks. However, combining larger organization models and distributed cognition has been rare in the literature. This thesis offers contribution to the existing literature by reflecting the case example of US Task Forces organization model in Iraq, the Team of Teams (Fig 2.), through a specific framework of distributed cognition: Distributed Cognition for Teamwork (DiCoT, Fig.4).
