This text presents research and development and industrial experience of usability engineering for multimedia user interfaces. It discusses the methods, tools and guidelines for multimedia use and implementation and covers the following topics in detail: design methods for multimedia (MM) systems; social and cognitive models for MM interaction; empirical studies of the effects of MM on learning and behaviour; design and prototyping support tools; intelligent MM Systems and Design support; and usability evaluation. The book contains the proceedings of the International Working Conference on Designing Effective and usable Multimedia Systems, sponsored by the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP), held in Stuttgart, Germany, in September 1998. It should be of interest to computer scientists, software developers, information systems managers and human scientists, especially those working in the applied disciplines such as human factors and interface design.

Providing insights into methodologies for designing adaptive systems based on semantic data, and introducing semantic models that can be used for building interactive systems, this book showcases many of the applications made possible by the use of semantic models.Ontologies may enhance the functional coverage of an interactive system as well as its visualization and interaction capabilities in various ways. Semantic models can also contribute to bridging gaps; for example, between user models, context-aware interfaces, and model-driven UI generation. There is considerable potential for using semantic models as a basis for adaptive interactive systems. A variety of reasoning and machine learning techniques exist that can be employed to achieve adaptive system behavior. The advent and rapid growth of Linked Open Data as a large-scale collection of semantic data has also paved the way for a new breed of intelligent, knowledge-intensive applications.Semantic Models for Adaptive Interactive Systems includes ten complementary chapters written by experts from both industry and academia. Rounded off by a number of case studies in real world application domains, this book will serve as a valuable reference for researchers and practitioners exploring the use of semantic models within HCI.

Die interdisziplinare Tagung Mensch und Computer findet jahrlich statt und bundelt die vielfaltigen Facetten der Mensch-Computer-Interaktion im deutschsprachigen Raum. Die Konferenz steht 2003 unter dem Motto "Interaktion in Bewegung" und setzt Schwerpunkte in den Themenbereichen mobile und ubiquitare Mensch-Technik-Interaktion, adaptive Benutzerschnittstellen und Interaktion mit vernetzten Informationsraumen und Anwendungen.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 18th Collaboration Researchers' International Working Group Conference on Collaboration and Technology, held in Raesfeld, Germany, in September 2012.The 9 revised papers presented together with 12 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. They are grouped into five themes that represent collaborative learning, social media analytics, conceptual and design models, formal modeling and technical approaches and collaboration support in emergency scenarios.
