  • Abstract
    Companies that are present at multiple online locations may have difficulty staffing them adequately in terms of helpdesk services with efficient use of human resources. In this paper a technological architecture is presented that allows a team of people to staff several online locations simultaneously, providing to customers/users the indication of human presence to attend them. We also present details on a first prototype implementation of this architecture.
