Kick of WP3
Steps towards building
Oxford, first project meeting
23-05-2006
10:30 am – 11:15 am
Current status WP3
"WP3 is on hold until:
the transistion from conceptual framework to
implemenation is more clear, and there is a
consensus on the architecture.
We hope to overcome these issues at the
Oxford project meeting."

Components of the DoW
The principal components are:
The attention detection component:
Its role is to observe the action of the user, establish current
user focus, and update the user model (and in particular
attentional state)
The agent reasoning component.
Its role is to analyze the attentional state of the user, and to
construct some possible interventions through the evaluation of
possible alternative foci.
The agent intervention component.
Its role is to select and execute a particular intervention.

3.3 Integration in

3.4 Validation of
the pilots
Defening the steps
 T3.1: Implementation preparation, methodology & plan.
Technical approaches are analysed and technical decisions are taken, the development
methodology (XP based) is clarified and an implementation plan (for both the
components and the e-learning platforms) is elaborated.
 T3.2 Implementation of the attention recognition component, the agent reasoning
component and the agent intervention component.
The different components are developed according to the specifications in WP2. Central
to this iterative development process will be the modularity and flexibility of the
components.
 T3.3: Global integration and technical testing for two pilots.
The different components of AtGentive will be integrated in the collaborative e-learning
platforms, resulting in first prototypes of AtGentSchool and AtGentNet. Elaboration of
the general user’s documentation (integrated as much as possible into the platform).
 T3.4: Implementation, setting-up and execution of the validation of the user
interaction using eye-tracking.
The prototypes will be validated in user tests in which eye-tracking technology will play
and important role to asses the functioning of the different components with the
AtGentSchool and AtGentNet environment.
