Importantly, by maintaining a logical mapping between the printed and digital instances, editing operations on paper can later be integrated into the digital document even if other users have edited the digital version in parallel. The system is based on Anoto digital pen and paper technology and is implemented using the iPaper framework for interactive paper.","PeriodicalId":310204,"journal":{"name":"CHI '08 Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing Systems","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116733382","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}

Keywords are defined by a hierarchically structured command set, called the \"functional structure.\" Two kinds of interactions are designed to support user-friendliness and effectiveness: interaction for exploration and interaction for the resolution of ambiguity. A probabilistic formulation for this approach is also considered. An experiment and objective evaluation method are designed so that the new interface for command execution can be compared with the conventional \"command and control\" interface. A comparative experiment to measure the efficiency and usability is also conducted and reported in this paper. Experimental results show that the proposed approach is superior to the conventional approach from both objective and subjective points of view.","PeriodicalId":310204,"journal":{"name":"CHI '08 Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing Systems","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115456182","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}

These systems use event-based schedulers and sensors in physical environments to detect and respond to individual and group activity. They are designed to motivate, sustain, and augment a wide variety of human behaviors. Ongoing user testing is geared toward understanding how these systems can be used to better understand, encourage, and organize personal and group activities. A primary goal of experience-scapes research is to leverage increasingly available ubiquitous and physical computing platforms to enhance personal and group self-awareness and self-efficacy. Through user testing and refinement, experience-scape systems are becoming readily deployable, interactive, smart environments that empower people to reflect on their everyday activities.","PeriodicalId":310204,"journal":{"name":"CHI '08 Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing Systems","volume":"169 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121400003","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 found that the particular access method is an influential factor in the overall acceptance of a mobile video service.
