The technology is rooted in flexible knowledge-rich artificial intelligence planning methods and has contributed to the development of standards for shared plan and process representations.<\/p>\n<p>The focus of the current work is on an &#8220;intelligent room&#8221; or &#8220;knowledgeable room&#8221; to act as a knowledge aid to support collaborative teleconferences and meetings initially but later to provide a knowledge assistant in any location a user wishes via whatever presentation and communications methods are appropriate. The project is a base for a range of collaborative developments, plug-ins, and projects. Initial work is focused on the creation of a Virtual Collaboration Center in a virtual world environment such as Second Life.<\/p>\n<p>The talk will outline our vision of the Helpful Environment and introduce the key I-X and  concepts which could offer a long term core for elements of this.  It will describe a number of large scale collaborative projects in which these ideas are in use including FireGrid, CoAX, CoAKTinG and Co-OPR.  It will show current work on the I-Room Virtual Collaboration Center.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- .asset-content --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our long term aim is to contribute to a future &#8220;Helpful Environment&#8221; by supporting the creation and use of task-centric virtual organisations involving people, government and non-governmental organisations, automated systems, grid and web services working alongside intelligent robotic, vehicle, building and environmental systems to respond to very dynamic events on scales from local to global.
