MACC'97 Session: Information Retrieval
This paper presents a new computational model of daily information assistance with personal interface agents to achieve human-centered interaction between people and software agents in everyday life. The brains of personal interface agents are located in the internet apart from the owners, and the owners interact with their agents via internet using their agents' URL. A software agent on a street also obtains the URL of a personal interface agent, when the software agent meets the owner on the street. Then the software agent interacts with the personal interface agent using the URL, and they exchange the information of the interaction between the owner and the software agent. As a result, personal interface agents always observe the interaction of the owners with software agents, and help the owners when they are in trouble.
