MORENO-ESPINOI, Mailyn; CARRASCO-BUSTAMANTE, Alternán; ROSETE-SUAREZI, Alejandro  e  DELGADO-DAPENA, Martha Dunia. Decision-making support in a Technology Observatory by incorporating proactivity. Ing. Ind. [online]. 2013, vol.34, n.3, pp. 293-306. ISSN 1815-5936.

The process of finding and processing information is very important for many professionals. Therefore, information retrieving and sharing are key issues. At present, the quantity of information is growing and it is difficult to find it, due to its heterogeneity, its constant change and the diversity of data sources. Technological observatories solve this problem in some way, although they do not always take into account the necessity to make the monitoring process proactively. This paper shows how the inclusion of proactive behaviors into a technological observatory using the agent’s philosophy and the implementation patterns can improve its performance and keep users updated if their interests are known. The test pilot results are described, where the users received mails according to their interests.

Palavras-chave : technology observatory; proactivity; agents; implementation pattern; Java Agent Development Framework (JADE)..
