Abstract
In accordance with the teachings of the present invention, an architecture and method is presented for proving an ad hoc work space environment. In accordance with the teachings of the present invention, an end user operates a graphical user interface (GUI) to input requirements defining an ad hoc work space. Software robots are launched and they provision network resources to implement the requirements. The end user may then collaborate with others in the ad hoc work space while activities are logged. When there is no longer a need for the ad hoc work space, the provisioned resources may be returned to the network and the ad hoc work space may be dismantled.
