Dynomite: a dynamically organized ink and audio notebook

The role of logbooks as mediators of engineering design work

“…A significant portion of these have focused on the affordances of logbooks as a paper medium e.g. low cost, ease of access, and non-linear interaction (Liang et al, 1998;Wilcox et al, 1997). In particular, projects have sought to produce digital alternatives that replicate the logbook's 'surface' functionality such as the tagging of information (Fredian & Stillerman, 2006) or the medium of the logbook itself (Oehlberg et al, 2009).…”

"Construção de aplicações de captura e acesso baseada em recorrência de funcionalidades"

“…Igualmente pioneiros, o DOLPHIN (Streitz et al, 1994) e o Tivoli (Pedersen et al, 1993) foram desenvolvidos para dar suporte a reuniões distribuídas em que usuários podem interagir com uma lousa eletrônica compartilhada. O Dynomite (Wilcox et al, 1997) permite a integração de anotações com áudio e vídeo capturado durante a reunião. O sistema DUMMBO tem como foco a captura de sessões casuais, cujas ocorrências são normalmente aperiódicas e dependem de situações oportunas.…”

Software for taking notes in class

“…Thus there are fewer problems with notes which were clear when created but after some months, when the context has been forgotten, are hard to interpret. For office workers the technique of storing notes as "ink without recognition" [10] or "digital ink" [11], that is, storing the notes in bitmap form, is often acceptable.…”

“…As these may be used to support the creation of products based on a integration of a large quantity of information gathered over months or years, indexing and restructuring become major concerns [10], [12], [13], much more so than for class notes.…”
