Abstract

The paper focuses on an approach that facilitates improving the management processes in solving the project tasks. The improvement can be achieved if Agile managerial mechanisms will be combined with the managing of human-computer interruptions when tasks are reflected on programmable queues. The offered combining opens the possibility for planned and situational interactions of the designer with queues of tasks in points of interruptions taking into account the evolving multitasking. Furthermore, the approach supports intellectual processing the reasons of interruptions for their more effective using.
