In teams working closely together, interruptions of coworkers are normal and necessary. One of the goals of the ambient intelligent computing framework MATe (Mate for Awareness in Teams) is to prevent unwanted interruptions and at the same time improve social interaction. By creating awareness of each other's situation, users are able to judge how interruptible colleagues are. We describe the concept of MATe and its components and present related work on interruption handling and ontology-based reasoning as well as outline our current and future research in the area of context-aware systems.
