An Agent-based System for Capturing and Indexing Software Design Meetings


	The system no longer allows users to design agent software, but it is also built up from agents itself.

	The system run on the Metaglue agent architecture installed in the MIT AI lab intelligent room and in other various places. The system is composed of several agent components that all interact with one another. The design meeting manager agent is a general agent that inherits from the meeting manager agent, and starts the tahuti agent, the tahuti speech agent, and meeting capture devices. The meeting manager agent is an agent for general meetings and can be used to control the agenda as well as things like the lights and the fan. The Tahuti agent controls the sketch recognition and process the sketch related events. The Tahuti Speech Agent allows users to use voice to command the application. Meeting capture devices, such as a video agent, audio agent, and/or screen capture agent may be present in the room. The Metaglue agent system will start the most appropriate capture device in the room to record the meeting.
