“…They include a great variety of capturing, processing, connecting, storage, and imaging technologies. The processing and storage technologies are becoming more and more interlinked as utility, grid and cloud computing are used to harness shared computational resources in order to optimally meet various demands in a timely and cost-effective manner [21,22]. Within conversion technologies, visualization and sensation conversion technologies (including haptic, tactile, audio, etc.…”

Personal assistant agents capable of proactively offering assistance can be more helpful to their users through their ability to perform tasks that otherwise would require user involvement. This article characterizes the properties desired of proactive behavior by a personal assistant agent in the realm of task management and develops an operational framework to implement such capabilities. We present an extended agent architectural model that features a meta-level layer charged with identifying potentially helpful actions and determining when it is appropriate to perform them. The reasoning that answers these questions draws on a theory of proactivity that describes user desires and a model of helpfulness. Operationally, assistance patterns represent a compiled form of this knowledge, instantiating meta- * Authors listed in reverse alphabetical order. 1250004-1N.

The resulting generic framework for proactive goal generation and deliberation has been implemented as part of a personal assistant agent in the computer desktop domain.

“…Rather, a decade of experience has shown that the educational benefits of computers have resulted from the manner in which the technology has been applied by teachers and students (Knapp 1989;Collins 1991). Educators have concluded that the more closely the application of the technology complements the teaching and learning styles, the greater the impact on learning (Migliorelli 1987;Tesler 1991 What is needed, then, is a different approach to the use of technology in schools, one which attends first to the teaching model that the teacher wishes to employ for a certain instructional unit or event, and one which also can be adapted to the different abilities and interests of the learner. Interestingly, the latest advances in LAN technology can now support the demands that would be placed on a school-based LAN if the approach delineated above and fleshed-out below were to be implemented.…”

The thesis of this paper is that new advances in both microtechnology and LAN technology can now provide teachers with flexible and exciting instructional tools which allow for a powerful integration of teaching model, curriculum content and technology. The first section describes some of the current applications of school-based LANs. The second section discusses various teaching models, and describes an in-depth example of how a teacher may go about providing instruction by combining a LAN and these models. The third section addresses the feasibility of such an instructional approach.
