    Abstract
    Investigates the use of formal mathematical models in the design of interactive systems and argues for the development of generic models that describe the behaviour of a class of interactive systems. It is possible to construct a generic model of a class of interactive systems at an intermediate level of abstraction. Such a model would offer wider reusability than detailed specifications of a single system, but greater expressiveness and support for software development than fully generate abstract models. Reviews a number of existing models in the literature and presents a generic model of interactive case memories, a class of systems used in case-based reasoning

    Abstract
    Understanding the properties of interactions is essential to the design of effective interactive systems involving 2 or more agents, and to the evaluation of existing systems. This understanding can inform the design of multi agent systems by helping the designer identify properties that a system should conform to. In addition, a focus on the properties of interactions can lead to a better understanding of the space of possibilities, by recognizing features of multi agent systems which are often simply incidental outcomes of design, not explicitly considered in the design specification. Presents an Interaction Framework, in which abstracts interactional requirements and properties can be expressed in a way which is not biases towards the perspective of any one agent to the interaction. These can be used to derive requirements on the design of computer systems, to highlight those aspects of users which influence the properties of the interaction, and hence to guide the design of the interactive system
