Agile methods emphasize highly interactive and close collaboration within teams and among stakeholders. Due to still missing adequate digital tools, agile teams use mostly physical artefacts like wallboards and story cards. In this paper, we present ...

Large screen displays are part of many future visions, such as i-LAND that describes the possible workspace of the future. Research showed that wall-sized screens provide clear benefits for data exploration, collaboration and organizing work in office ...

Although interactive surfaces have been a constant topic of research during the last decades, there is still little agreement on shared infrastructures for their conception and development. While the mainstream industry has already partially integrated ...

The wide availability of human-computer interfaces which stimulate our senses (vision, hearing and touch) does not equally serve all categories of end users: people with sensory and/or motor disabilities cannot access information as the majority does, ...

We focus on the use of interactive surfaces for visual data exploration. The workshop topics are situated at the intersection of Interaction and Visualization research, and we ask for contributions from members of one or both communities. Our main goal ...

In this workshop, we will review and discuss opportunities, technical challenges and problems with cross-device interactions in interactive multi-surface and multi-device ecologies. We aim to bring together researchers and practitioners currently ...

This workshop proposes to bring together researchers who are interested in improving collaborative experiences through the combination of multiple interaction surfaces with diverse sizes and formats, ranging from large-scale walls, to tables, mobiles, ...

Over the years we have seen the proliferation of mobile internet connected devices. This growth is challenging the traditional notions of education being bound to a single time and place. At the same time teachers are asked to develop 21st century ...

Analyzing and redesigning business processes is a complex task, which requires the collaboration of multiple actors. Current approaches focus on workshops where process stakeholders together with modeling experts create a graphical visualization of a ...

In the last decade, object recognition placed on tabletop has been advertised as a near future ability on next generation tabletops by several major information technology companies. Markers-based recognition seems the straightforward solution, but one ...

This paper presents the evaluation of the RoboTale game of interactive storytelling for children. The evaluation assess the usability of tangibles for robot control; their role in the storytelling; and the collaboration among the participating children. ...

Despite the increasing use of Multi-Touch (MT) capable devices, novel interaction techniques need to be examined in order to swift from a single-touch WIMP interaction paradigm to a MT one.In this work, we focus on chord interaction on vertical MT ...

In this paper, we present several concepts towards fluid multi-touch interactions for an interactive star plot visualization. The goal of our research is to improve the usability of visualizations by developing new and natural interaction techniques as ...

The internet raises challenges for retailers, since it provides a competing sales channel that allows effectively unlimited access to arbitrary products. In particular, this enables a phenomenon known as showrooming, where customers inspect products in ...

With the increasing use of multi-touch (MT) capable devices, MT interaction has become a commodity during the last years. From personal devices to larger multi-user screens, MT functionality is nowadays considered as a standard way of performing rich ...

In tabletop-supported collaborative environments, direct viewing or accessing to all parts of the screen is not possible in many cases. This could affect the performance of team members in executing the common collaborative tasks. Targeting this concern, ...

This study explores the design of a tabletop system that seeks to bolster the argumentative skills of Computer Science students. A set of four design guidelines - positive interdependence, stages, interference, and awareness - were derived from user ...

This poster describes the design of a display and interaction device that allows a natural mid-air manipulation and feedback of floating, true 3D objects. This so called virtual touch will create a natural feeling of manipulating and touching of the ...

We present Stripe, a fluid and zoomable interface for navigating content datasets with a remote control on large screens. By bringing multi-level semantic zooming, fixed focus, and fluid user interaction to linear layouts of content, Stripe provides ...

Developing applications for multi-surface user interfaces is challenging. Sharing and transferring information between these surfaces requires the need for multi-modal interaction methods. In this paper we describe the Police Analyst work- station for ...
