Multiagent applications will appear more and more in open, heterogeneous, evolving and distributed environments, such as the Internet. In order to run in such environments, agents will need to adapt themselves to new platforms and protocols. We propose ...
Are physically embodied social agents better than disembodied social agents?: The effects of physical embodiment, tactile interaction, and people's loneliness in human-robot interaction

Two experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of physical embodiment in human-agent interaction. Experiment 1 (N=32) shows positive effects of physical embodiment on the feeling of an agent's social presence, the evaluation of the agent, the ...
