Abstract

This paper proposes a notion of presence which overcomes its strict interpretation in terms of physical projection and perception, and interprets “the sense of being there” as the understanding of “the meaning of what is going on there”. The domain of control environments is considered to illustrate this point and to propose technological solutions combining principles and techniques taken from Artificial Intelligence and Computer Supported Cooperative Work to enhance the interpretation and cooperation capabilities of the involved actors.
