“…Many conference technologies have sought to promote better networking [12] by identifying attendees, suggesting potential beneficial contacts and offering icebreakers and other prompts to encourage social activity. Often, these have built upon the familiar concept of a conference badge, which is a common means of identifying others and a convenient placement for sensors, emitters or small displays [3,8,15].…”

We describe a qualitative study of delegate engagement with technology in academic conferences through a largescale deployment of prototype technologies. These deployments represent current themes in conference technologies, such as providing access to content and opportunities for socialising between delegates. We consider not just the use of individual technologies, but also the overall impact of an assemblage of interfaces, ranging from ambient to interactive and mobile to situated. Based on a two-week deployment followed by interviews and surveys of attendees, we discuss the ways in which delegates engaged with the prototypes and the implications this had for their experience of the conferences. From our findings, we draw three new themes to inform the development of future conference technologies.

“…Furthermore, work on designing technology-rich spaces to attract user interaction and enhance human-to-human sociability has been a promising research. The GROUPCAST [7] and Intellibadge systems [4] are applications that present information in a large display in a shared area. In the current project we elaborated upon these ideas by combining information with 'sweet' input devices and providing ways to make the passersby curious about the system.…”

Abstract. This paper describes the development of a multi-user interactive display in the coffee corner that makes the office workers aware of events happening within the company aiming to stimulate social interaction. New input devices, i-Candies (fake candies integrated with RFID tags) are used as multiuser input devices for explicit interactions with the display. The interactive display and i-Candies have been deployed and tested within the office environment.

Abstract:In this paper, we propose a Weblog system called ActionLog, which can associate Weblog entries to real world contexts. The real world context is not only useful for Weblog authors themselves, but also beneficial to communication among people, because people with the same or a similar context can easily find each other. ActionLog collects user actions from both Web-based and other real-world systems. Weblog contents are generated automatically from these user actions with related information. Users can browse and edit these entries as their personal action records and in addition can publish them for experience sharing. We built a practical system as an ActionLog application for conference support. Its main objective is to help people to learn about presentations and to effectively meet other people in a limited amount of time and the least amount of user commitment. There are three main features, i.e., integration of information in the real world and the cyber world, personalization in both information capturing from users and in information providing to users, and persistent assistance throughout the conference.
