“…An early project was the Stanford iRoom [10], an infrastructure that enabled the devices in a room to communicate with each other. Lucia Terrenghi and colleagues provided a comprehensive taxonomy of different scales of multisurface environments [11], from wristwatches and phones to the side of a building.…”

“…The Stanford Interactive Workspaces project tackled this problem by developing a robust, fault-tolerant middleware that built on the concept of the Event Heap, a tuplespace with publish-subscribe semantics (see [Borchers, Ringel, Tyler and Fox 2002] or Winograd's chapter for details). It allowed applications to send or subscribe to particular events, enabling applications, devices and services to talk to each other.…”

Designing User Friendly Augmented Work Environments

Abstract. Design Patterns are a format to capture the knowledge about successful solutions to recurring design problems in a uniform, interconnected, and easily understood way. The format originated in urban architecture, but has made its way into software engineering and Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). This makes them an ideal format to provide guidelines for the design of Augmented Environments, which requires a highly interdisciplinary team to collaborate.The author, who published the original book on HCI design patterns, has worked on Augmented Environments since 1995. He has captured his experience in designing such environments within the patterns presented here. The chapter first introduces the design pattern format, gives practical tips for reading and writing design patterns, and presents the Augmented Environments from which the patterns in this chapter were distilled. The main part of this chapter then consists of the collection of design patterns for Augmented Environments. These patterns provide practical guidance on how to create an Augmented Environment, with a focus on architectural, interior design, software infrastructure, and user interface considerations. The chapter includes nineteen such patterns connected into a network, as well as suggestions for additional patterns.

“…Alternatively, DC may be viewed as a novel way of exploiting a relational approach [Ullmer & Ishii 2000] to Tangible User Interface design, systematically allowing the selection of multiple objects to determine dynamically bindings between objects and computational operations. Other systems with related goals, but different approaches include Recombinant Computing , and the iRoom tuple-space approach [Borchers et al 2002]. DC relates strongly to Direct Manipulation (DM): parts of DC may be viewed as generalizations or specializations of DM, though the relationship is complex.…”

A First Empirical Study of Direct Combination in a Ubiquitous Environment

People and Computers XVIII — Design for Life

In dynamic ubiquitous environments, end users may need to create services by causing two or more devices or resources to interoperate together in adhoc circumstances. In general, users can find this kind of process hard to manage. At the same time, existing UI architectures are not well suited to supporting such activities. It is proposed that a good basis for addressing these and related problems in a principled, scaleable way is the principle of Direct Combination (DC). The principle is summarized, and analytical arguments are presented that predict that DC can reduce the amount of search required by the user. Other things being equal, such a reduction in search would be expected to offer interactions which are faster, less frustrating, and impose less mental load on the user. We present a proofof-concept implementation, and a small-scale evaluation of a DC interface. Within the limitations of a preliminary evaluation, consistent support is offered across several measures for the analytical predictions.
