Model Driven Development (MDD) is an important paradigm in Software Engineering. In MDD, applications are specified systematically using abstract, platform independent models. The models are then transformed into executable code for different platforms and target devices. Model-driven techniques become ever more prominent in any kind of application, such as multimedia and Web, ubiquitous and automotive applications.

Abstract This paper introduces a conceptual framework and process that aims to simplify the development of applications for mobile devices. We specialize on the domain of health monitoring by providing a whole system that would allow people to model their own mobile health monitoring applications in a simplified manner without dealing with low-level coding themselves.

Precise modeling is essential to the success of the OMG's Model Driven Architecture initiative. At the modeling level (M1) OCL allows for the precision needed to write executable models. Can OCL be extended to become a full high-level executable language with side-effects? At the meta-level (M2), queries, views and transformations are subjects that will be vital to the success of the OMG's Model Driven Architecture initiative.

Abstract Usability analysis is an important step in software development in order to improve certain aspects of the system. However, it is often a challenge especially when it comes to evaluating applications running on mobile devices because of the restrictions posed by the device and the lack of supporting tools and software available to collect the necessary usability data. This paper proposes a methodology and framework to aid developers in preparing the mobile system for usability analysis.

Abstract More and more services are available on public terminals. Due to their public location and permanent availability, they can easily fall victim to manipulation. These manipulations mostly aim at stealing the customers' authentication information (eg bank card PIN) to gain access to the victims' possessions. By relocating the input from the terminal to the users' mobile device, the system presented in this paper makes the authentication process resistant against such manipulations.

Abstract The development of mobile applications has now extended from mobile network providers into the hands of ordinary people as organizations and companies encourage people to come up with their own software masterpieces by opening up APIs and tools. However, as of the moment, these APIs and tools are only usable by people with programming skills. There is a scarcity of tools that enable users without programming experience to easily build customized mobile applications.

Abstract This project deals with interaction across multiple devices in mobile computing environments, and will investigate the use of spatial information to support such interactions. Therefore a variety of application scenarios is considered, which involve spatially co-located devices, objects, or people. The general research aim is to understand how such interactions can be supported with spatial information, that is how the devices are positioned and oriented with respect to each other.

Abstract. In this paper we present Team Battle Quiz, a game that runs on publicly accessible screens and is played through the users' mobile phones. Our aim was to provide a game open for everyone that encourages participants to discuss and play together as a team. Our first user study demonstrated that the approach has the potential to elate the anonymous crowd to get in touch with each other. It further enables conversations among potential strangers in urban spaces by fostering team spirit among its participants.

ABSTRACT Hybrid User Interfaces, which create a heterogeneous environment providing different interaction forms and devices, may be enhanced by exploring more extensively the mixed reality continuum, which ranges from the real world to the complete virtual world, passing by augmented reality and augmented virtuality. Some hybrid interface approaches have been developed making use of the real world or enhanced by augmented reality resources.

Abstract: In the field of collaborative learning, instructional designs are often used to structure learning processes. In order to support educationalists during the design of such learning scripts, graphical learning design editors have been developed, eg MoCoLaDe. The learning designs can then be exported using a formal specification, such as the markup language IMS-LD, for further use.

Abstract: Within the setting of tangible user interfaces (TUI) in combination with interactive surfaces, collaborative scenarios seem to be the most promising use cases, since these cant be performed on desktop computers. Furthermore, TUIs allow quick and easy interactions with tabletop computers. However, within such collaborative use cases with multiple users, the problem of establishing ownership between a TUI and a user arises quickly.

Abstract Topic Maps offer mechanisms to index information items on a global scale. Any arbitrary subject, even a subject from the real world, may be part of a topic map. Within topic maps, assertions about these subjects can be made. This makes Topic Maps a very suitable concept for the realization of a knowledge management system.

ABSTRACT Designing ubiquitous computing applications not only requires technical knowledge but also creativity. New ways of seamless interaction with computers and new applications domains that target real user needs have to be found. That demands collaboration between several disciplines such as product and interaction designers as well as software and hardware engineers.

Abstract The proliferation of digital cameras and their low operating costs lead to an abundance of digital photos that are not only laborious to organize but also lack the tangibility of their physical counterparts. Informed Browsing tries to ease the organization of a large media collection by applying automatic analysis methods. Tabletop displays allow for a more direct handling of virtual objects and facilitate multi-user interaction and communication.

In der modernen Softwareentwicklung spielt die Verwendung objektorientierter Frameworks und die Orientierung auf objekt-und komponentenorientierte Programmierung eine zunehmende Rolle. Diese Konzepte erlauben sehr effiziente Wiederverwendung bereits erstellten Codes und sind damit eine wichtige Möglichkeit zur Senkung der Softwareentwicklungskosten. Die Verwendung von Frameworks stellt aber auch besondere Anforderungen an den Entwickler.

Abstract—Beyond 3G mobile systems are characterized by the usage of a multitude of different terminals, from high-end devices to miniaturized ubiquitous devices, as well as heterogeneous networks. Complexity for configuration and service provisioning is increased on both terminal and network sides. To ease of the users' burden, flexible adaptation and personalization support are fundamental requirements for service architecture.

Abstract The world wide web is filled with information. In the most recent past, web sites emerge that allow users to add their own content very easily. In the desired to share their information with others, users tag their content on social web sites like flickr, del. icio. us and technorati with key words, other users can relate to when they discover the web and find information. This paper will define the terms tag, tag cloud and folksonomy, that are recently used more often when talking in terms of social web sites.

Abstract We report on experience from teaching OO project courses to undergraduate students. Before they can successfully tackle projects they have to climb a rather steep qualification ladder: pick up a working knowledge of some OO language, learn and practice OOA and OOD, and get used to advanced ideas like patterns and frameworks. In order to relieve this heavy burden somewhat, we provide an object-oriented application framework as a common base for the projects.

Based on in-game behaviour, eye tracking data, and cued retrospective reports, the present study aims to evaluate how commercial video games, specifically Multiplayer Online Battle Arenas can foster hypothetico-deductive reasoning in everyday life contexts. At the same time, it aims to locate in-game behaviour patterns serving as indicators of hypothetico-deductive traits. The studies take place in a simulated-naturalistic environment using both an exploratory and a microgenetic design.
