  2. 1. Towards Enhancing Awareness in Designing Collaborative Computing Systems

    Author : Khanh Duy Le; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; social network; Workspace awareness; vibro-tactile feedback; Contextual awareness; Social awareness; distributed creative group work; tabletop; Awareness; Collaboration;

    Abstract : Awareness is critical to the success of collaborative activities. User awareness (from here on: awareness) is a system’s capacity to provide comprehensible and appropriate communication cues from one user to the other users of the same system. READ MORE

  4. 2. Designing for technology-mediated collaboration

    Author : Stefan Nilsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; technology-mediated collaboration; coordination; awareness; CSCW; shared workspace; grounding; social norms; design patterns;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns the design of a synchronous shared workspace supporting technology-mediated collaboration. In order to collaborate, participants need to be able to coordinate the activity. And to coordinate an activity, they need be aware of others involved in the collaboration. READ MORE

  5. 3. Designing to Support Workspace Awareness in Remote Collaboration using 2D Interactive Surfaces

    Author : Khanh Duy Le; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; mobile devices; gaze; 2D interactive surfaces; non-verbal communication; virtual collaboration; telepresence; hand gestures; remote collaboration;

    Abstract : Increasing distributions of the global workforce are leading to collaborative workamong remote coworkers. The emergence of such remote collaborations is essentiallysupported by technology advancements of screen-based devices ranging from tabletor laptop to large displays. READ MORE

  6. 4. Design and Evaluation of 3D Multimodal Virtual Environments for Visually Impaired People

    Author : Ying Ying Huang; Yngve Sundblad; Eva-Lotta Sallnäs; Charlotte Magnusson; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Multimodal interaction; 3D worlds; Haptics; Audio; Visually impaired users; Collaboration; Navigation; Computer science; Datavetenskap;

    Abstract : Spatial information presented visually is not easily accessible to visually impairedusers. Current technologies, such as screen readers, cannot intuitively conveyspatial layout or structure. This lack of overview is an obstacle for a visuallyimpaired user, both when using the computer individually and when collaboratingwith other users. READ MORE

  7. 5. On Safe Collaborative Assembly With Large Industrial Robots

    Author : Varun Gopinath; Kerstin Johansen; Johan Ölvander; Micael Derelöv; Michael Hofbaur; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : This thesis pertains to industrial safety in relation to human-robot collaboration. The aim is to enhance understanding of the nature of systems where large industrial robots collaborate with humans to complete assembly tasks. This understanding may support development and safe operations of future collaborative systems. READ MORE
