An implemented system is described which allows a software agent to collaborate with a human user using a shared application window. The system automatically controls input permission and also provides mechanisms for signalling and communication. A generalization of the system to multiple users and agents, called NShare, is compared with common window-sharing tools, such as SharedX. This work is part of a larger agenda to apply principles of human collaboration and discourse structure to human-computer interaction using the interface agent paradigm. |
