Résumé
This paper presents a new agent-based Virtual Communication Interface (VCI), called E-Mask, which hides the real appearance of its interlocutors. After a contextualization of Microsoft Software Agent technology, we focus on the implementation of virtuality in the BM_Virtual Enterprise Architecture Reference Model (BM-VEARM) with human-like characters. Other applications of agent software as well as the VCI are also covered. We find that the E-Mask interface may be a dynamic reconfiguration enabler in Virtual Enterprise (VE) Networks since the communication time between end-users is shortened.
