A Conceptual Framework and a Toolkit for Supporting the Rapid Prototyping of Context-Aware Applications
, 2001
"... Computing devices and applications are now used beyond the desktop, in diverse environments, and this trend toward ubiquitous computing is accelerating. One challenge that remains in this emerging research field is the ability to enhance the behavior of any application by informing it of the context ..."

removed from that vision. This is due to three main problems: (1) the notion of context is still ill defined; (2) there is a lack of conceptual models and methods to help drive the design of context-aware applications; and (3) no tools are available to jump-start the development of context
Taking CSCW Seriously: Supporting Articulation Work

this paper we set out an approach to CSCW as a field of research which we believe provides a coherent conceptual framework for this area, suggesting that it should be concerned with the support requirements of cooperative work arrangements. This provides a more principled, comprehensive, and, in our opinion, more useful conception of the field than that provided by the conception of CSCW as being focused on computer support for groups. We then investigate the consequences of taking this alternative conception seriously, in terms of research directions for the field. As an indication of the fruits of this approach, we discuss the concept of `articulation work' and its relevance to CSCW. This raises a host of interesting problems that are marginalized in the work on small group support but critical to the success of CSCW systems `in the large', i. e., that are designed to meet current work requirements in the everyday world
Classroom 2000: An Experiment with the Instrumentation of a Living Educational Environment

One potentially useful feature of future computing environments is the ability to capture the live experiences of the occupants and to provide that record to users for later access and review. Over the last 3 years, we have designed and extensively used a particular instrumented environment, the classroom, designed to facilitate the easy capture of the traditional lecture experience. We will describe the history of the Classroom 2000 project at Georgia Tech, and provide results of extended evaluations of the impact of automated capture on the teaching and learning experience. In addition to understanding the impact of automated capture in this educational domain, there are many important lessons to take away from this long-term, largescale experiment with a living ubiquitous computing environment. The environment needs to address issues of scale and extensibility, and there needs to be a way to continuously evaluate the effectiveness of the environment and understand and react to the w...
3-D Sound for Virtual Reality and Multimedia
, 2000
"... This paper gives HRTF magnitude data in numerical form for 43 frequencies between 0.2---12 kHz, the average of 12 studies representing 100 different subjects. However, no phase data is included in the tables; group delay simulation would need to be included in order to account for ITD. In 3-D sound ..."

Semantic annotation, indexing, and retrieval
- Journal of Web Semantics
, 2004
"... Abstract. The Semantic Web realization depends on the availability of a critical mass of metadata for the web content, associated with the respective formal knowledge about the world. We claim that the Semantic Web, at its current stage of development, is in a state of a critically need of metadata ..."
