Emerging Frameworks for Tangible User Interfaces
, 2001
"... For more than thirty years, people have relied primarily on screen-based text and graphics to interact with computers. Whether the screen is placed on a desk, held in one's hand, worn on one's head, or embedded in the physical environment, the screen has cultivated a predominantly visual p ..."

paradigm of human-computer interaction. In this chapter, we discuss a growing space of interfaces in which physical objects play a central role as both physical representations and controls for digital information. We present an interaction model and key characteristics for such "tangible user
Graspable User Interfaces
, 1996
"... This dissertation defines and explores Graspable User Interfaces, an evolution of the input mechanisms used in graphical user interfaces (GUIs). A Graspable UI design provides users concurrent access to multiple, specialized input devices which can serve as dedicated physical interface widgets, affo ..."

Learning Semantic Interaction among Graspable Objects
"... Abstract. In this work, we aim at understanding semantic interaction among graspable objects in both direct and indirect physical contact for robotic manipulation tasks. Given an object of interest, its support relationship with other graspable objects is inferred hierarchically. The support relatio ..."

Pick-and-Drop: A Direct Manipulation Technique for Multiple Computer Environments
"... This paper proposes a new field of user interfaces called multi-computer direct manipulation and presents a pen-based direct manipulation technique that can be used for data transfer between different computers as well as within the same computer. The proposed Pick-and-Drop allows a user to pick up ..."

an object on a display and drop it on another display as if he/she were manipulating a physical object. Even though the pen itself does not have storage capabilities, a combination of Pen-ID and the pen manager on the network provides the illusion that the pen can physically pick up and move a computer
Grounding language in action
- Psychonomic Bulletin & Review
, 2002
"... We report a new phenomenon associated with language comprehension: the action–sentence compatibility effect (ACE). Participants judged whether sentences were sensible by making a response that required moving toward or away from their bodies. When a sentence implied action in one direction (e.g., “C ..."

.g., “Close the drawer ” implies action away from the body), the participants had difficulty making a sensibility judgment requiring a response in the opposite direction. The ACE was demonstrated for three sentences types: imperative sentences, sentences describing the transfer of concrete objects
Visual Simulation of Smoke
, 2001
"... In this paper, we propose a new approach to numerical smoke simulation for computer graphics applications. The method proposed here exploits physics unique to smoke in order to design a numerical method that is both fast and efficient on the relatively coarse grids traditionally used in computer gra ..."

by others. In addition, we introduce a physically consistent vorticity confinement term to model the small scale rolling features characteristic of smoke that are absent on most coarse grid simulations. Our model also correctly handles the interaction of smoke with moving objects. Keywords: Smoke
Augmented Surfaces: A Spatially Continuous Work Space for Hybrid Computing Environments
, 1999
"... This paper describes our design and implementation of a computer augmented environment that allows users to smoothly interchange digital information among their portable computers, table and wall displays, and other physical objects. Supported by a camera-based object recognition system, users can e ..."

Graspables: Grasp-Recognition as a User Interface
"... The Graspables project is an exploration of how measuring the way people hold and manipulate objects can be used as a user interface. As computational ability continues to be implemented in more and more objects and devices, new interaction methods need to be developed. The Graspables System is embo ..."

Orca: A language for parallel programming of distributed systems
- IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering
, 1992
"... Orca is a language for implementing parallel applications on loosely coupled distributed systems. Unlike most languages for distributed programming, it allows processes on different machines to share data. Such data are encapsulated in data-objects, which are instances of user-defined abstract data ..."

types. The implementation of Orca takes care of the physical distribution of objects among the local memories of the processors. In particular, an implementation may replicate and/or migrate objects in order to decrease access times to objects and increase parallelism. This paper gives a detailed
Index Structures for Path Expressions

The reasons for this non-conformance are diverse. One one hand, data may not conform to such models at the physical level: it may be ..."
