Abstract

We propose an architecture for large scale, multi-user, distributed multimedia based on cooperating agents communicating by means of an observable communication channel. In addition to the traditional protocols based on point-to-point communication, coordination and cooperation should be supported via social awareness and overhearing. Overhearing also allows the collection of contextual information without interfering with already deployed systems. Our domain of application is interactive museums, which are typical examples of so-called ``active environments'' or ``ambient intelligence''. Purpose of this paper is to present the core concepts, and outline the future lines of research
