In a first step, information about the personality of the user is obtained from a questionnaire and then, in a second step, integrated in the reactive system of the user agent, part of which implements ...
These agents, call them user agents, are really hermaphrodites between avatars and autonomous agents in that they live an autonomous life, if their users are offline, acting their behalf, but can be controlled ...
