In recent years, there has been an increased interest for research on computer-supported cooperative work performed in collaborative interactive spaces. The TATIN-PIC project envisions a true multi-surface collaborative work environment with an interactive tabletop, an interactive board display, tablet PCs, and smartphones. In this paper, we first present the middleware based on a multi-agent architecture which use in our implementation, and then we detail how voice-controlled personal assistant agents can be implemented to provide unique interactions within a multi-surface environment.
