On the World Wide Web, however, the browser's experience is attenuated, not only by the limited number of items represented at a given time on a given page, but by the number of arbitrary decisions that are often required to navigate to that page. The High-Density Online Catalog (HDOC) is a single-page, interactive visualization derived from parallel coordinate plots and intended for browsing many items with common attributes. A fully populated HDOC immediately communicates its depth and breadth, and engages the user to dip freely into its contents. A prototype of HDOC, illustrating many hundreds of musical works, has been developed in conjunction with the composer, Philip Glass. The paper discusses the HDOC interface design and initial usability studies.","PeriodicalId":201648,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 34th Annual Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences","volume":"265 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-01-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123017216","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Comprehensive coordinated rehabilitation services can reduce mortality and improve functional outcomes following stroke. In rural communities, however, the specialized services and supports needed by patients after stroke are often not available. An innovative alternative to deliver rehabilitation services is telerehabilitation. The INTEGRIS Rural Facilities and the INTEGRIS Jim Thorpe Rehabilitation Network collaboratively conducted case studies utilizing physical therapy, occupational therapy, neuropsychology and vocational rehabilitation for stroke survivors in rural communities 70 to 170 miles away from the specialists. Consultations were conducted using H320 videoconferencing equipment over dedicated T-1 lines. The telerehabilitation applications, patient outcomes, service coordination, cost-effectiveness and lessons learned are discussed.","PeriodicalId":201648,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 34th Annual Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences","volume":"117 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-01-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123053500","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is an obstruction, prohibiting inter-organization collaboration in different ways. If we can manage the inter-cultural communication apprehension properly, we may be able to bring organizations of different cultures together for successful completion of EC collaborative works. This paper summarizes previous works on inter-cultural communication apprehension and identifies three potential factors that could influence inter-cultural communication apprehension: cultural climate, technology environment and communication leadership. Also, this paper proposes a research framework and several hypotheses for future testing.","PeriodicalId":201648,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 34th Annual Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-01-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126402670","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The third in a series of experiments comparing virtual interaction to interaction combining both face-to-face and virtual communication, this study focuses on the relationship between group interaction, group development, and group effectiveness. Data were collected on four dependent variables: quality, creativity, satisfaction, and group development. Findings reinforce results from previous experiments: virtual and combined groups generated work products of equivalent quality; virtual groups generated more creative solutions; combined groups were more satisfied with their interaction process and solution quality. Findings indicate that combined groups reached a higher level of development than virtual groups. There was a positive relationship between the level of group development, the quality of the work product, and the degree of satisfaction. A negative relationship was found between group development level and creativity.","PeriodicalId":201648,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 34th Annual Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences","volume":"226 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-01-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115277464","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We conducted a series of experiments to assess the effectiveness of shared viewpoints on two simple tasks. Control groups were provided with telepointers. Experimental groups were provided with telepointers and shared views. The results indicate that for participants with access to both tools, shared views are preferred over telepointers for tasks involving joint exploration of either the environment or some object of common interest.","PeriodicalId":201648,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 34th Annual Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences","volume":"55 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-01-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116657305","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The solution starts with a text transcript of the broadcast generated by an automatic speech recognition system. Speaker independent speech recognition technology, even when tailored for a broadcast scenario, generally produces transcripts with relatively low accuracy. Given this limitation, we have developed algorithms that can determine the essence of the broadcast from these transcripts. Specifically, we extract named entities, topics, and sentence types from the transcript and use them to automatically generate both structured and unstructured search queries. A novel distance-ranking algorithm is used to select relevant information from the search results. The whole process is performed online and the query results (i.e., the collateral information) are added to the broadcast stream.","PeriodicalId":201648,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 34th Annual Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences","volume":"58 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-01-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116745039","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We find that the number of existing orders has a significant positive effect on new orders placed during each 3-hour period, indicating the presence of a positive participation externality effect. We also find evidence for expectations of falling prices, a price drop effect. Results also reveal a significant ending effect, as more orders were placed during the last 3-hour period of the auction cycles.","PeriodicalId":201648,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 34th Annual Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-01-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125175371","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper focuses on their work practices, specifically those of their conversational resources in organising collaboration and structuring their workspaces for future reuse. The team was interdisciplinary and both locally (office spaces spread over a single site) and temporally (across different time zones) distributed. As well as face-to-face meetings, their resources included a shared Web space, Web development software, telephones, videoconferencing, e-mail, Hypermail and CAD software. Our findings demonstrated that it was not enough that the team maintained a persistent record of their communication; it was also critical that this record was archived and accessible in an appropriate medium for rapid and effortless reuse, and that it was dynamically re-configurable to adapt to the team members' changing communication and information requirements over the project's lifecycle. From the findings, we developed implications for the design of persistent network-based solutions for information referral and review.","PeriodicalId":201648,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 34th Annual Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences","volume":"2014 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-01-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125638113","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
