  1. 1. On the Relative Utility of 3D Interfaces

    Author : Monica Tavanti; Mats Lind; Antonio Rizzo; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Människa-dator-interaktion; human-computer interaction; information visualization; 2D and 3D interfaces; Människa-dator-interaktion; Information technology; Informationsteknologi; datavetenskap med inriktning människa-dator interaktion; Computer Science; human-computer interaction;

    Abstract : Three-dimensional (3D) interfaces are made with the ambition to reinvent traditional two-dimensional (2D) displays into intuitive 3D environments that allow natural interactions and guarantee users’ satisfaction. However, reality is far from the expectations and 3D interfaces remain experimental. READ MORE

  2. 2. Usable privacy for digital transactions : Exploring the usability aspects of three privacy enhancing mechanisms

    Abstract : The amount of personal identifiable information that people distribute over different online services has grown rapidly and considerably over the last decades. This has led to increased probabilities for identity theft, profiling and linkability attacks, which can in turn not only result in a threat to people’s personal dignity, finances, and many other aspects of their lives, but also to societies in general.

    Abstract : The conditions for the third, non-profit sector, such as grassroots organisations and trade unions, have changed dramatically in recent years, due to prevailing social trends. Non-profit organisations have been seen as early adopters of information technology, but the area is, at the same time, largely unattended by scientific research. READ MORE

  4. 4. An Ontology-Based Platform for Information Integration : Supporting Sustainable Smart Transportation Infrastructure

    Abstract : Transportation and transportation infrastructure are major contributors to global emissions. Even though most of these emissions can be attributed to fuel consumption of vehicles, some of it is due to pavement construction and maintenance. READ MORE

  5. 5. From Conceptual Links to Causal Relations — Physical-Virtual Artefacts in Mixed-Reality Space

    Author : Thomas Pederson; Lars-Erik Janlert; William Buxton; Umeå universitet; []

    Abstract : This thesis presents a set of concepts and a general design approach for designing Mixed Reality environments based on the idea that the physical (real) world and the virtual (digital) world are equally important and share many properties. Focus is on the design of a technology infrastructure intended to relieve people from some of the extra efforts currently needed when performing activities that make heavy use of both worlds.
