Vue Radar: déporter le gestionnaire de fenêtres sur une tablette: RadarView: Unloading the Desktop Window Manager onto a Tablet

In an activity that involves viewing and editing a large amount of data, organising the information in the form of a dashboard is relatively common. The user must then be able to move efficiently from one area of information to another to view or edit the data in the dashboard, which sometimes exceeds even the size of the screen. Multiple window managers have been studied but their application has never been explored for information areas within a single window. The "Radar View" we propose is a miniature representation of the different information areas accessible. We study the use of the radar view according to several considerations including the location of the radar view and the layout of its content. Through a first experimental study, il appears that the results are in line with the hypothesis according to which the use of a radar view displayed on a tablet glued to the keyboard allows the user to complete the task in less time than if he/she were to use a mouse and conventional window navigation, without increasing the number of errors made and without obscuring the data being consulted and edited. These results will need to be confirmed in a further study.
