Abstract (EN): FC Portugal Rescue team is the result of a cooperation project between the Universities of Aveiro and Porto in Portugal. Following previous collaborations of these two Portuguese Universities in RoboCup simulation league and associated competitions, this project intends to fully adapt the coordination methodologies developed by FC Portugal simulated soccer team to the search and rescue scenario. After FC Portugal's first successful participation in RoboCup rescue simulation league (Osaka, 2005), the team aimed at introducing new high-level strategic analysis tools in the Rescue league and developed FCPx tool. This tool enables an easy comparison of different teams' strategies, and the use of learning methodologies for high-level strategic decisions in rescue. The tool also enabled us to evaluate our coordination methodologies, analyzing the results achieved in several rescue parameters, and conclude that they are very promising for the search and rescue domain. FC Portugal Rescue team results are very promising achieving first place in RoboCup European Championship 2006 (Dutch Open) held in Eindhoven.
