ACTIVEMAP: A Visualization Tool for Location Awareness to Support Informal Interactions
, 1999
"... . ACTIVEMAP is a visualization tool that enables users to gain greater awareness of the location of people in their workplace environment, increasing each person's ability to seek out colleagues for informal, face-to-face interactions. Our initial implementation of the tool places images of ..."

Activity maps for location-aware computing
- In Proceedings of the IEEE WACV2002
, 2002
"... The Problem: Location-based context is important for many applications. Previous systems offered only coarse room-level features or used manually specified room regions to determine fine-scale features. We propose a location context mechanism based on activity maps, which define regions of similar c ..."

We describe an algorithm for obtaining activity maps in real time using the spatio-temporal clustering of visual tracking data. Motivation: In many cases, fine grain location based information is preferred. One example
Map Displays for Information Retrieval

Visual Analytics Browsers to Support Awareness and Social Interaction
"... Information sharing and social interaction are the Web’s main features that have enabled online communities to abound and flourish. However, the Web is lacking cues and browsing mechanisms for the online social spaces. That is, such spaces look and feel abstract and informational rather than invitin ..."

A Survey of Visualization Tools that Promote Awareness of Software Development Activities
, 2009
"... In recent years, research attention in the software engineering community has shifted from process management and workflow tools that aim to plan for all coordination activity and eventualities before development begins to a new generation of more flexible tools that saturate the developer's wo ..."

The common thread that runs through these tools is the objective of supporting awareness of software developers‘ activities, in order to put one‘s own activities in context. Despite
Location-Aware Active Signage

Workspace Awareness Support with Radar Views
- Conference companion of the Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI’96
, 1996
"... Real-time groupware systems often let each participant control their own view into a shared workspace. This strategy can reduce awareness about where and how others are interacting with the document or the workspace artifacts. We have designed a number of awareness widgets to help people regain this ..."

Our displays give lightweight access to information about others ’ locations and activities, providing for richer person-to-person interaction in groupware systems.
