Users can tag other users while commenting on a case or while execution of a case (at run/step level). Tagging users will generate an email notification (given the preferences are set appropriately). Email notifications are sent automatically when a user is assigned to a case in a cycle and also when a user is set as the Automation Owner of a case.
