Synchronous interaction, Theory and models.

by Olov Ståhl, Anders Wallberg, Jan Humble, Lennart E. Fahlén, Jenny Lundberg
"... In this paper we describe The Pond, a system used to search for and visualise data elements on an engaging tabletop display. The Pond uses methods of unencumbered interaction and audio feedback to allow users to investigate data elements, and supports shoulder-to-shoulder collaboration with the phys ..."

Enhancing collaboration of multi-developer projects with synchronous changes

by Lile Hattori - In Proceedings of ICSE 2010 (32nd ACM/IEEE International Conference on Software Engineering), Doctoral Symposium , 2010
"... In a multi-developer project, team collaboration is essential for the success of the project. When team members are spread across dif-ferent locations, informal interactions are lost, having an impact on individual awareness of the activity of others. In this scenario, col-laboration becomes a chall ..."

. In this work, we address the challenge of enhancing group aware-ness and stimulating collaboration by providing relevant informa-tion to developers in a non-intrusive manner. The novelty of our approach is that we model changes as first-class entities to deliver precise change information to targeted

Simplifying Interactions with Task Model Tracing

by Greg Trafton, Derek Brock
"... We use the cognitive architecture ACT--R to model a simple application task domain. Using a technique we call "Task Model Tracing," we have implemented a general mechanism for enhancing direct manipulation in a simple application's user interface. The task model tracing system is a la ..."

Assessing the use of a Trace-Based Synchronous Tool for distant language tutoring

by Yannick Prié, Université De Lyon, Cnrs Université Lyon
"... Abstract: This article presents a pilot study carried out to investigate the potential of a functionality marker setting, included in a synchronous collaborative videoconferencing platform (VISU). Markers, supported by a trace-based system, are designed to facilitate tutors' activity. They prov ..."
Abstract - Add to MetaCart
on the marker-based traces of eight language tutors collected in the course of pedagogical interactions with their distant learners during a seven-week transnational collaborative project. It presents both quantitative and qualitative analyses of the use of markers during synchronous language teaching sessions

Service oriented support for heterogeneous software tools in environmental modelling and visualisation

by C. Stock, I. Bishop, C. Pettit
"... Abstract: Natural resources management policies often entail a complex environmental decision-making process. This process can be greatly enhanced if it is based on an exploratory-envisioning system such as the Spatial Information Exploration and Visualisation Environment (SIEVE). This system integr ..."

Interactive facilities for collaborative feature modeling on the web

by Rafael Bidarra, Eelco Berg, Willem F. Bronsvoort - in Proc. of the Tenth Portuguese Conference on Computer Graphics
"... Collaborative modeling systems are distributed multiple-user systems that are both concurrent and synchro-nized, aimed at supporting engineering teams in coordinating their modeling activities. During a collaborative modeling session, several users are connected to each other in order to perform act ..."

SPIFF, the functionality of the server and the clients, their communication mechanisms, and the distribution of model data is described. In particular, maintenance and synchronization of model data at the clients, and techniques for their effective utilization for enhancing user interaction and collaboration are de

Enhancing CS programming lab courses using collaborative editors

by Timothy J. Hickey, J. T. Langton, Kenroy Granville, Richard Alterman - Journal of Computing Sciences in Colleges , 2005
"... This paper describes the pedagogical implications of the GREWPtool (the Groupware Research in Education and the Workforce Project), a same time different place groupware tool built to support synchronous, collaborative coding among small to medium sized groups. GREWPtool exploits the educational ben ..."

benefits of paired programming while extending the model to allow students synchronous control of the same code. This effectively drops the constraints of turn taking, and allows for a richer interaction. The result was a powerful tool that can be used to provide interactive lectures, structure classroom

An Enhanced Context Aware Applications Architecture Using Collaborative Model 1

by S Srinivasa Reddy , S Siva , Rama Krishna , B Gantaiah , Lakireddy Bali Reddy
"... Abstract Asynchronous Event Handling and Synchronous Exception Handling mechanisms are devised as part of a forward recovery model to program robust context-aware applications which enable designing recovery actions to handle different kinds of failures such as service discovery failures, service b ..."

original article Collaborative 3D Workspace and Interaction Techniques for Synchronous Distributed Product Design Reviews

by Tek-jin Nam, Kyung Sakong
"... This paper presents a collaborative 3D workspace that makes use of newly developed interaction techniques for synchronous distributed product design reviews. These new techniques were developed to enhance collaboration in regard to shared objects and shared workspaces. The requirements for such coll ..."
