....desktop or laptop computer allowing for quick information access and parallel input reducing the problem of air time fragmentation. In supporting workshopstyle, dynamic meetings, these systems have not proven useful because they require pre structuring the meeting process. According to [10], it is rather common and not an exception that the agenda is often changed in the course of such meetings and there is the danger that such meetings are overly confined. One of the first computer setups to support face to face meetings, Colab [4] provided the meeting participants with a ....

There has been substantial research in augmented whiteboards for conference rooms, including Tivoli [18] and iLand [27] Some of the interaction techniques for large display surfaces, such as throwing in iLand, would be useful in our environment. Likewise the advanced projector display techniques of [21] could enable users to paint their interactive whiteboard on any surface in their office. 2.3 ....

Clearly, these contributions have been very important to the field. One issue that has not been so much addressed in the research on meeting support is mobility. In fact, mobility has until recently been largely overlooked in the CSCW literature (Luff and Heath 1998) Some recent empirical ....

....there was no condition with a combination of all devices. Most scenarios involving interactive electronic whiteboards concentrate on providing and using only one large display (Pedersen et al. 1993) operated with a pen, sometimes additionally operated by a scribe using a notebook on the table (Moran et al. 1996). There is also the obvious but seldomly realized configuration of providing a large interactive display and personal computers to all participants and networking all devices with each other. This is the standard setup in our OCEAN Lab at GMD IPSI (see figure 1 in the description of the ....

.... social scientists experienced in describing and identifying social and cultural factors, designers, and perhaps the people who are expected to use the resultant technological system [7] 9] Moran and his colleagues demonstrate the importance of supporting informal collaborative work [11] [12]. Their research focuses on using technology to augment intensive discussion based teamwork. They supported groups reviewing and rating many documents in short meetings. We are supporting a team working together over a period of weeks to make sense of multimedia data. In both cases the social ....

Researchers examining the use of technologies for group work point out the importance of natural interactions between team members, especially when using computers to assist or support the team s activities [15] [12].

.... on Collab and LiveBoard, our research aims to augment face to face work [16, 7] We have worked hard to weave the GroupWear tags into the social fabric of a normal conference, heeding Moran, et al. s warning that the tools should not inhibit or distort people s natural collaborative activities [12]. To this end, we have insured alignment between GroupWear mechanics and normal group dynamics: when two people face each other at normal conversational distance, their tags interact; also, tag output is designed to be easily comprehensible within the time and space constraints of regular social ....

Work at Xerox PARC has resulted in a suite tools to support a sribe at a meeting [14, 15], as well as some electronic whiteboard technology the LiveBoard [7] to support group discussion. The Marquee note taking system from PARC [21] and the Filochat prototype at Hewlett Packard Labs [24] both supported individual annotation. A simple pen based interface to produced automatic ....

Other researchers do not directly address how effective the fine grained indexing was for the users during the access phase, though one report does note conventions in note taking adopted to allow the user to be reminded how to adjust the system s timestamp to a more relevant audio index [15]. There will also be links generated that are not time related, one example of which we address next. Supporting revision during access In our prototype, the Web notes were static, meaning that no additional information could be added to them after class.

....a means to get a clean board without losing current content. Our efforts are motivated by two threads of inquiry. First, while there has been previous research in computeraugmented whiteboards, these efforts have principally focused on the use of whiteboards in meeting or classroom settings [1][13]. Our goal is to investigate a computeraugmented whiteboard design in the setting of an individual office. Second, we hope to contribute to the growing body of research in ubiquitous computing [20] augmented reality [4] and tangible interfaces [10] The whiteboard itself is a ubiquitous tool in ....

This retrieval interface is not fully implemented, but the underlying storage and retrieval mechanisms are in place. RELATED WORK Tivoli One of the major examples of previous work in this area is Tivoli [13][14] 14] 15] a pen based interface designed to run on a LiveBoard. Tivoli is principally designed for a specific task supporting focused meetings about a single issue. It has been most used and studied in the context of supporting PARC intellectual property management. Although there are many ....

Most of our work in that area has involved the application of ubiquitous computing technology in the stationary environment of the university classroom [12, 1, 2] and others have applied it in the meeting room environment [9, 10] . We can see a hint of this capture access problem appearing in CyBARguide as the traveller records impressions of an establishment that may influence their plans later on. It is a natural extension to add this kind of capture facility for the tourist. We have experimented with capturing ....

It started as a basic whiteboard simulation application [15] but it has been used as a platform for many different research explorations [12, 5, 8, 9, 13]. Figure 2 shows a simplified picture of the Tivoli architecture, as consisting of two components that manage interactions with the user and three components that analyze the graphic and spatial properties of materials on the board. The Whiteboard Manager handles user interactions, editing ....
