Intelligent User Assistance in Collaborative Design Environments

摘要：

This paper reports on our recent work on intelligentuser assistance for collaborative design environments.Critical to the success of the agent framework designhas been a cognitive user model, which is composed ofa user interest model and behavior model. Theintelligent assistance architecture integrates thesemodels with other environment models as well as withinference, knowledge-update and collaborationcomponents. All these models and componentscollectively enable the intelligent assistant agent toeffectively achieve the users goals in a collaborativedesign environment.The proposed user model isimplemented in a coordinated, intelligent, rationalagent ( CIR-Agent) model on a FIPA-compliant platforra.This paper also presents a case study on amultidisciplinary design optimization (MDO) softwareenvironment and our efforts towards a generalcollaborative personal assistant agent framework.
