Book Description

1558604448 978-1558604445 April 15, 1998 1

This book represents a collection of the classic and contemporary readings in the field of Intelligent User Interfaces. An invaluable resource for students, professors, research scientists and engineers, it includes both fundamental research and applied innovations in the key areas of IUI including input analysis, output generation, user and discourse adapted interaction, agent-based interaction, model-based interface design, and evaluation.



Editors Maybury and Wahlster, two prominent researchers in the field of Intelligent User Interfaces, offer an introduction to the field along with commentary on each topic. In order to provide a uniquely synergistic view they chose a five person interdisciplinary review board to act as a sounding board for the organization of the book that included paper selection and reviewing commentary for the editors. Each paper concludes with a reflection by the original author on what worked, what did not, and where opportunities remain, as well as commentary on subsequent research and advances since the publication of their work, including important developments and key follow-up publications by the author and others.

Dr. Eduard Hovy, Information Science Institute (ISI), University of Southern California

By A Customer
This review is from: Readings in Intelligent User Interfaces (Interactive Technologies) (Paperback)
Current user-computer dialogues tend to be one sided, with the bandwith from the computer to the user far greater than that from user to computer. A fast and effortles mode of communication from a user to a computer would help redress this imbalance. We therefore investigate the possibility of introducing the movements of a user`s eyes as an additional input medium. While the technology for measuring eye movements and reporting them in rreal time has been improving, what is needed is appropriate interaction techniques that incorporate eye movements into user-computer dialogue in a convenient and natural way.
