Adaptive Interaction Using the Adaptive Agent Oriented Software Architecture (AAOSA)

User interfaces that adapt their characteristics to those of the user are referred to as adaptive interfaces. We propose Adaptive Agent Oriented Software Architecture (AAOSA) as a new way of designing adaptive interfaces. AAOSA is a new approach to software design based on an agent-oriented architecture. In this approach agents are considered adaptively communicating concurrent modules which are divided into a white box module responsible for the communications and learning, and a black box which is responsible for the independent specialized processes of the agent. A distributed learning policy that makes use of this architecture is used for purposes of system adaptability.
