Adaptive and Interactive
Mobile Systems (Chief's Special Project)
We draw expertise from the following areas:
- Autonomous
agents and multi-agent systems-
many interaction processes occur in groups, and
in order to organise knowledge, collaboration and a proper
distribution of functions and tasks, there is need to analyse, model
and develop computational systems in which several (semi-)autonomous
software agents interact, adapt and work together in a common open
environment, combining individual strategies into overall behaviour.
- Language technology and customized information delivery - the design and implementation of systems that
generate language understood by the end users; with the primary focus
on high-quality (multi-lingual) personalised documents for users,
which take into consideration preferences for language, medium and
style as well as customising content for the particular information
need.
- Human-computer interaction
- concerned with the joint performance of tasks by
humans and machines; the structure of communication between human and
machine; human capabilities to use machines; algorithms and
engineering issues that arise in designing and building user
interfaces; the process of specification, design, and implementation
of interfaces; and design trade-offs.
