	abstract = {Distributed POMDPs provide an expressive framework for
modeling multiagent collaboration problems, but NEXPComplete complexity hinders their scalability and application
in real-world domains. This paper introduces a subclass of
distributed POMDPs, and TREMOR, an algorithm to solve
such distributed POMDPs. The primary novelty of TREMOR
is that agents plan individually with a single agent POMDP
solver and use social model shaping to implicitly coordinate
with other agents. Experiments demonstrate that TREMOR
can provide solutions orders of magnitude faster than existing algorithms while achieving comparable, or even superior,
solution quality},
