Abstract

One of the challenges for ambient intelligent agents to support a human in demanding tasks, is to find out and be aware of what the human is exactly doing, and how much progress is made. Of course, in principle it would be possible to interact with the human to discover what this human is doing, but this communication can potentially slow down or even endanger task performance. In this paper an ambient agent model is presented that is able to obtain such an awareness of the human's progress in task execution by performing model-based analysis using available workflow models and available observation information. The design of the model is based on a component-based generic ambient agent model. Simulation experiments for a case study are discussed, and evaluated by automated formal verification.
