Concepts and Models for Ubiquitous Computing
workshop @ ubicomp 2002 - göteborg - 29 sept 2002
web :-
http://www.hcibook.com/alan/conf/ubicomp2002-models/
what :-
Ubicomp has produced many innovative and exciting systems and
applications alongside broad visionary viewpoints. However, more
generic design focused concepts and models will become essential as
ubicomp moves from an exploratory research area to being the normal
pattern of human-computer interaction.
This workshop is for those interested in developing the generic
understanding of interaction needed to make sense of ubiquitous
environments. This will include those developing new interactive
approaches and metaphors, those reflecting on experience of
development and those constructing supporting software architectures.
We wish to bring together researchers interested in the fundamental
principles of ubiquitous interaction. This will include
system-orientated architectural and device models; user orientated
cognitive models; new paradigms and metaphors; and discussions of the
nature of user's understanding. The breadth of scope is based on
experience within the user-interface community where there is a
considerable overlap between conceptual understanding and
architectural models of interaction.
The experimental systems designed today are unlikely to be those used
in 5-10 years time or beyond, but the lessons they teach us will be
of enduring value. This workshop will be the first of an ongoing
series of international workshops aimed at making these generic
lessons explicit.
Numbers are restricted and invitations will be issued based on
submitted position papers of 2-4 pages.
