Abstract

This paper proposes an agent-based approach to customizing a remote conversation support system for cognitively handicapped people. This remote conversation support system is designed as a web application to assist with conversation over the Internet. The system is built from ‘gadgets,' each of which implements a particular conversation support function. Since the need for conversation support varies from person to person, such a system must be customized to suit the requirements of the two users who conduct the conversation. The proposed approach introduces a user agent that corresponds to a human user. The negotiation protocol for selecting the necessary gadgets is defined based on the FIPA interaction protocol. This paper describes how the proposed protocol can be used to determine the gadgets to be used during run-time.
