Abstract
Several methods and models for interactive system specification can be found in research literature. An agent-oriented approach inspired by Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) is proposed and discussed in relation to its value for UI design . This approach is currently being tested as part of a project which aims to design a supervision system used by regulators of a public transport system.
