The tools comprised an interactive communication module, a distributed visualization module, and a large international data repository. The paper explores the extent to which the PD concept which is usually employed in user interface design, may be effective for addressing these other, related issues as well. Results were confirmatory suggesting that PD techniques can be adapted effectively to address issues other than those involved in user interface design. Findings also suggested that these topics should be dealt with in special sessions separate from those aiming to design the user interface.","PeriodicalId":322019,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 1998 Australasian Computer Human Interaction Conference.

The use of multiple modes, such as speech and gesture, can allow for more natural human-computer interaction. Opportunities for error and ambiguity resolution also occur, as the same information may be available from more than one source, providing redundant or repeated information. This paper presents a study of the redundant integration of speech and 2D gesture input in a relatively simple, inexpensive multimodal input system. Empirical results about multimodal recognition rates at particular levels of redundancy are presented, and implications for the integration of multiple modes are discussed.","PeriodicalId":322019,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 1998 Australasian Computer Human Interaction Conference.

One popular approach is to represent domains of interest in terms of the objects they contain and measures of the similarity between them. Spatial data visualisations can then be generated which place objects so that those which are more similar lie nearer each other. Unfortunately, this approach has limitations when dealing with domains which require the display of very high-dimensional configurations or incorporate fundamentally non-metric structures. This paper develops and demonstrates an interactive approach to spatial data visualisation which addresses both of these weaknesses. By allowing analysts to select objects within the domain and view spatial configurations adjusted to represent the similarity relationships from the perspective of those objects, it is shown to be possible to build up an accurate and useful understanding of high-dimensional and non-metric domains.","PeriodicalId":322019,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 1998 Australasian Computer Human Interaction Conference.

Changes in cursor coordinates were sampled at 200 Hz. Relative to a mouse, the Accupoint acquired movement precision at a slower rate, and was less force efficient. While only 56% as efficient as the mouse, Accupoint cursor trajectories are more reliable in near space (but less reliable in far space).","PeriodicalId":322019,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 1998 Australasian Computer Human Interaction Conference.
