In the project described here, the system Irvine, CA 92697-3440 USA Irvine, CA 92697-3440 USA only adapts when the user allows it to go to sleep long ebaumer@uci.edu acorrea@uci.edu enough to have a dream. In addition, the dream itself is a visualization of the transformation of the interface, Man Lok Yau Bryant Hornick so that a person may see what changes have occurred. Department of Informatics Department of Informatics This project presents an interim stage of this system, in University of California, Irvine University of California, Irvine which an autonomous agent collects knowledge about Irvine, CA 92697-3440 USA Irvine, CA 9269
