Using a gestural interface toolkit for tactile input to a dynamic virtual space
Authors: Thecla Schiphorst, Robb Lovell, Norman Jaffe
Venue: CHI '02 extended abstracts on Human factors in computing systems (2002)

In this paper, we describe the development of a gesture interface toolkit that has been applied to an application of tactile gesture recognition within an artificial life environment. The goal is to design a gestural semantics of caress, in which qualitative attributes of gesture are expressed as a function of tactility. A touch-sensitive tablet capable of detecting multiple simultaneous contacts was used to provide a source of tactile gestures (stroking, pressing, tapping, wrapping, spreading, pinching, nudging) which were then interpreted by the software as events to be sent to the active creature in the environment. Participants could observe the creature reactions within a three-dimensional immersive display system.

Javaserver Pages
Authors: Hans Bergsten
Venue:  (2000)

:JavaServer Pages (JSP) technology provides an easy way to create dynamic web pages. JSP uses a component-based approach that allows web developers to easily combine static HTML for look-and-feel with Java components for dynamic features. The simplicity of this component-based model, combined with the cross-platform power of Java, allows a web development environment with enormous potential. JavaServer Pages shows how to develop Java-based web applications without having to be a hardcore programmer. The author provides an overview of JSP concepts and discusses how JSP fits into the larger picture of web applications. Web page authors will benefit from the chapters on generating dynamic content, handling session information, accessing databases, authenticating users, and personalizing content. In the programming-oriented chapters, Java programmers learn how to create Java components and custom JSP tags for web authors to use in JSP pages. About the Author: Hans Bergsten is the founder of Gefion Software, whose main product is a servlet-based component suite for developing web applications. Hans is also an active participant in the development of the JSP specification.

Efficient and precise array access analysis
Authors: Yunheung Paek, Jay Hoeflinger, David Padua
Venue: ACM Transactions on Programming Languages and Systems (TOPLAS) (2002)

A number of existing compiler techniques hinge on the analysis of array accesses in a program. The most important task in array access analysis is to collect the information about array accesses of interest and summarize it in some standard form. Traditional forms used in array access analysis are sensitive to the complexity of array subscripts; that is, they are usually quite accurate and efficient for simple array subscripting expressions, but lose accuracy or require potentially expensive algorithms for complex subscripts. Our study has revealed that in many programs, particularly numerical applications, many access patterns are simple in nature even when the subscripting expressions are complex. Based on this analysis, we have developed a new, general array region representational form, called the linear memory access descriptor (LMAD). The key idea of the LMAD is to relate all memory accesses to the linear machine memory rather than to the shape of the logical data structures of a programming language. This form helps us expose the simplicity of the actual patterns of array accesses in memory, which may be hidden by complex array subscript expressions. Our recent experimental studies show that our new representation simplifies array access analysis and, thus, enables efficient and accurate compiler analysis.
Teaching and learning ubiquitous CHI (UCHI) design: suggestions from the Bauhaus Model
Authors: Rich Halstead-Nussloch, William Carpenter
Venue: CHI '02 extended abstracts on Human factors in computing systems (2002)

We describe a design pedagogy under development. It is a) interdisciplinary, b) inspired by success in teaching architectural design, c) motivated by the rapid maturation of CHI design and computing, d) directly connected to what we call ubiquitous-computer-human interaction or UCHI, and e) based on larning design by building. We have brainstormed about how we might merge significant aspects of our disciplines (architecture and HCI) into a joint design course; we both agree that Gropius' 1922 [3,4] pedagogical model for the Bauhaus applies to learning architecture and UCHI design. We invite feedback, ideas, and collaboration from the HCI community on this work in progress.
A scalable and highly available system for serving dynamic data at frequently accessed web sites
Authors: Jim Challenger, Paul Dantzig, Arun Iyengar
Venue: Proceedings of the 1998 ACM/IEEE conference on Supercomputing (CDROM) (1998)

This paper describes the system and key techniques used for achieving performance and high availability at the official Web site for the 1998 Olympic Winter Games which was one of the most popular Web sites for the duration of the Olympic Games. The Web site utilized thirteen SP2 systems scattered around the globe containing a total of 143 processors. A key feature of the Web site was that the data being presented to clients was constantly changing. Whenever new results were entered into the system, updated Web pages reflecting the changes were made available to the rest of the world within seconds.One technique we used to serve dynamic data efficiently to clients was to cache dynamic pages so that they only had to be generated once. We developed and implemented a new algorithm we call Data Update Propagation (DUP) which identifies the cached pages that have become stale as a result of changes to underlying data on which the cached pages depend, such as databases. For the Olympic Games Web site, we were able to update stale pages directly in the cache which obviated the need to invalidate them. This allowed us to achieve cache hit rates of close to 100%.Our system was able to serve pages to clients quickly during the entire Olympic Games even during peak periods. In addition, the site was available 100% of the time. We describe the key features employed by our site for high availability. We also describe how the Web site was structured to provide useful information while requiring clients to examine only a small number of pages.

Functional logic overloading
Authors: Matthias Neubauer, Peter Thiemann, Martin Gasbichler, Michael Sperber
Venue: ACM SIGPLAN Notices (2002)

Functional logic overloading is a novel approach to user-defined overloading that extends Haskell's concept of type classes in significant ways. Whereas type classes are conceptually predicates on types in standard Haskell, they are type functions in our approach. Thus, we can base type inference on the evaluation of functional logic programs. Functional logic programming provides a solid theoretical foundation for type functions and, at the same time, allows for programmable overloading resolution strategies by choosing different evaluation strategies for functional logic programs. Type inference with type functions is an instance of type inference with constrained types, where the underlying constraint system is defined by a functional logic program. We have designed a variant of Haskell which supports our approach to overloading, and implemented a prototype front-end for the language.

Evaluating the effectiveness of spatial memory in 2D and 3D physical and virtual environments
Authors: Andy Cockburn, Bruce McKenzie
Venue: Proceedings of the SIGCHI conference on Human factors in computing systems: Changing our world, changing ourselves (2002)

User interfaces can improve task performance by exploiting the powerful human capabilities for spatial cognition. This opportunity has been demonstrated by many prior experiments. It is tempting to believe that providing greater spatial flexibility-by moving from flat 2D to 3D user interfaces-will further enhance user performance. This paper describes an experiment that investigates the effectiveness of spatial memory in real-world physical models and in equivalent computer-based virtual systems. The different models vary the user's freedom to use depth and perspective in spatial arrangements of images representing web pages. Results show that the subjects' performance deteriorated in both the physical and virtual systems as their freedom to locate items in the third dimension increased. Subjective measures reinforce the performance measures, indicating that users found interfaces with higher dimensions more 'cluttered' and less efficient
