Abstract:
In this paper, we describe the Txupito interactor model. Nowadays, application contents are accessible on a
wide variety of devices such as laptops, tablets and smartphones but the heterogeneity of such devices does
not help programmers to elaborate ambient interactive applications adapted to each device. Indeed, users do
not interact in the same way on a tablet, a laptop or a smartphone. Furthermore the design of cooperative
HCI (Human Computer Interface) remains a very complex task especially in an ambient and heterogeneous
environment. In this paper, we propose a multimodal mobile interactor model, called Txupito, and a set of
composition operators as a way to achieve interactions with hardware in a distributed and cooperative way.
