Abstract. The use of natural interfaces improves significantly aspects related to human-computer interaction and consequently the productivity and the overall performance. In this paper we present a novel framework to interact with data elements presented in a 3D space. The system provides two mechanisms to interact using 2D and 3D gestures based on data provided by Kinect and on hand detection and gesture interpretation algorithms. The proposed architecture is analysed indicating that 3D interaction with information is possible, and provides advantages over a 2D interaction over the same problem. Finally, two sets of experiments were performed to evaluate 2D and 3D interaction styles based on natural interfaces focusing on traditional interaction with 3D databases.

Abstract. We present a graph grammar based type inference system for a totally graphic development language. NiMo (Nets in Motion) can be seen as a graphic equivalent to Haskell that acts as an on-line tracer and debugger. Programs are process networks that evolve giving total visibility of the execution state, and can be interactively completed, changed or stored at any step. In such a context, type inference must be incremental. During the net construction or modification only type safe connections are allowed. The user visualises the type information evolution and, in case of conflict, can easily identify the causes. Though based on the same ideas, the type inference system has significant differences with its analogous in functional languages. Process types are a non-trivial generalization of functional types to handle multiple outputs, partial application in any order, and curried-uncurried coercion. Here we present the elements to model graphical inference, the notion of structural and non-structural equivalence of type graphs, and a graph unification and composition calculus for typing nets in an incremental way
