In our approach, the informal networks that exist within organization are used to "referral chain" requests expertise. User-agents help automate this process. The agents generate referrals by analyzing records of email patterns. Simulation results show higher responsiveness system can be effectively traded accuracy a completely manual approach. Furthermore, preliminary experience with group users prototype has shown useful automatic found in practice. Our actual also privacy concerns central successful deployment personal agents: advanced will therefore need reason about issues involving trust authority.
