Kim Halskov Madsen Up until a few decades ago, business administration and science were the primary areas in which computers were applied, but terms like pervasive computing reflect that interactive computing power is becoming an embedded part of people's every day environment, not only office buildings and private homes but also art and cul At one of the frontiers of multimedia applications computers are used as tural events. part of experimental theatre, puppet theatre, musical performances, museums, entertainment, and learning. In some of these domains, people interact with the computers using a mouse, keyboard and a 17-inch monitor, but present-day inter faces take a variety of forms, in...
Lars Qvortrup The world of interactive 3D multimedia is a cross-institutional world. Here, researchers from media studies, linguistics, dramaturgy, media technology, 3D modelling, robotics, computer science, sociology etc. etc. meet. In order not to create a new tower of Babel, it is important to develop a set of common concepts and references. This is the aim of the first section of the book. In Chapter 2, Jens F. Jensen identifies the roots of interaction and interactivity in media studies, literature studies and computer science, and presents definitions of interaction as something going on among agents and agents and objects, and of interactivity as a property of media supporting interac...

In the past, computer-based information systems have been designed primarily for hierarchically structured organizations, reinforcing a single unified world view. This has been reflected in the design methods such as validity and consistency checking, information systems architecture, and information system use theories. Alternative organizational structures such as clans, network organizations, inter-organizational alliances and markets have different requirements, thus necessitating the emergence of a new perspective in information systems. As we develop information systems in the future, we must think of the user no longer as an individual but as a community. Fifteen excellent papers from the many interesting submissions are included in these proceedings along with four invited papers by leading representatives in the field. Also included are the briefing notes for four provocative panel discussions.
Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW) examines the possibilities and effects of technological support for humans involved in group communication and work processes... attention has been devoted to how humans might interact, not so much with computers, but with each other through computer based technology. Based on papers delivered at a conference topics are dealt with under six sections: the concept of CSCW; generic models and configurable systems; empirical studies of cooperative work and system use; infrastructure for CSCW; CSCW and design: principles and practices.
From materials to applications, this ready reference covers the entire value chain from fundamentals via processing right up to devices, presenting different approaches to large-area electronics, thus enabling readers to compare materials, properties and performance. Divided into two parts, the first focuses on the materials used for the electronic functionality, covering organic and inorganic semiconductors, including vacuum and solution-processed metal-oxide semiconductors, nanomembranes and nanocrystals, as well as conductors and insulators. The second part reviews the devices and applications of large-area electronics, including flexible and ultra-high-resolution displays, light-emitting transistors, organic and inorganic photovoltaics, large-area imagers and sensors, non-volatile memories and radio-frequency identification tags. With its academic and industrial viewpoints, this volume provides in-depth knowledge for experienced researchers while also serving as a first-stop resource for those entering the field.
