Abstract

This paper highlights intrusiveness as a key issue in the field of pervasive computing environments and presents a multi-agent approach to tackling it. Specifically, we discuss how interruptions can impact on individual and group tasks and how they can be managed by taking into account user and group preferences through negotiation between software agents. The system we develop is implemented on the Jabber platform and is deployed in the context of a meeting room scenario.
