SPATIAL METAPHOR FOR CONTEXT-AWARE APPLICATIONS
Technological innovation is transforming the environment
wherein we live, work, and interact. The growing availability
of ever smaller computational devices and pervasive network
connectivity allow to conceive new applications that support
users in interactions among themselves, and with computer systems.
Interaction thus is a crucial aspect of these new and increasingly
decentralised systems, whose components need to act according
to their local, subjective perception of their situation.
Agent based models, and interaction models defined for these
systems are a promising research area, facing issues related to
pervasive context-aware systems. This talk will introduce the
current landscape in agent interaction models, with specific
references to the development of open and pervasive systems.
Finally, some research results on a spatially based agent
interaction model (Multilayered Multi Agent Situated System)
will be presented.
