Abstract :
We have studied a mechanism of interaction support in software process by using an agent program prepared for every entity of the process. The agent defined accepts the requests and replies to them. We are now prototyping the communication support system based on this framework. More intelligent agent mechanisms such as automatic message routing could be investigated
