Automating CPM-GOMS
Authors: Bonnie John, Alonso Vera, Michael Matessa, Michael Freed, Roger Remington
Venue: Proceedings of the SIGCHI conference on Human factors in computing systems: Changing our world, changing ourselves (2002)

CPM-GOMS is a modeling method that combines the task decomposition of a GOMS analysis with a model of human resource usage at the level of cognitive, perceptual, and motor operations. CPM-GOMS models have made accurate predictions about skilled user behavior in routine tasks, but developing such models is tedious and error-prone. We describe a process for automatically generating CPM-GOMS models from a hierarchical task decomposition expressed in a cognitive modeling tool called Apex. Resource scheduling in Apex automates the difficult task of interleaving the cognitive, perceptual, and motor resources underlying common task operators (e.g. mouse move-and-click). Apex's UI automatically generates PERT charts, which allow modelers to visualize a model's complex parallel behavior. Because interleaving and visualization is now automated, it is feasible to construct arbitrarily long sequences of behavior. To demonstrate the process, we present a model of automated teller interactions in Apex and discuss implications for user modeling
Constructing a web-based asynchronous and synchronous collaboration environment using WebDAV and Lotus Sametime
Authors: Changtao Qu, Wolfgang Nejdl
Venue: Proceedings of the 29th annual ACM SIGUCCS conference on User services (2001)

In this paper we present our practice of constructing a Web-based asynchronous and synchronous collaboration environment for supporting collaborative distance learning between a German university and a university in Italy. We utilize the recent collaboration-friendly Internet protocol WebDAV to implement a groupware system which can support document-centric asynchronous collaboration activities, e.g., collaborative document authoring, collaborative document management, etc., as well as an industrial strength product Lotus SameTime to provide synchronous collaboration support, e.g., team awareness, instant messaging, shared whiteboard, and IP audio&video conferencing. Our approach has efficiently integrated our own research work on asynchronous collaboration technologies with a high-performance industrial product and as a result, constructed a full-function collaboration environment with relatively low cost and greatly reduced development time.

Supporting global user profiles through trusted authorities
Authors: Ibrahim Cingil
Venue: ACM SIGMOD Record (2002)

Personalization generally refers to making a Web site more responsive to the unique and individual needs of each user. We argue that for personalization to work effectively, detailed and interoperable user profiles should be globally available for authorized sites, and these profiles should dynamically reflect the changes in user interests.Creating user profiles from user click-stream data seems to be an effective way of generating detailed and dynamic user profiles. However a user profile generated in this way is available only on the computer where the user accesses his browser, and is inaccessable when the same user works on a different computer. On the other hand, the integration of Internet with telecommunication networks have made it possible for the users to connect to Web with a variety of mobile devices as well as desk tops. This requires that user profiles should be available to any desktop or mobile device on the Internet that users choose to work with.In this paper, we address these problems through the concept of "Trusted Authority". A user agent at the client side that captures the user click stream, dynamically generates a navigational history 'log' file in Extensible Markup Language (XML). This log files is then used to produce the 'user profiles' in Resource Description Framework (RDF). User's right to privacy is provided through the Platform for Privacy Preferences (P3P) standard. User profiles are uploaded to the trusted authority and served next time the user connects to the Web.The trusted authority concept, serving as a namespace qualifier, provides globally unique userid/password identification for users. Furthermore user profiles dynamically reflect the changes in their interests since the data generated while they are surfing the Web contribute to their profile. Also since the user profiles are defined in RDF, they are interoperable and available to any type of authorized device on the Internet.
Pole Assignment for Uncertain Systems
Authors: Mehmet Turan Soylemez
Venue:  (1999)

:Pole assignment for uncertain systems is a book where many existing as well as new pole assignment methods are described using a common notation and a clear yet efficient language. The problem considered has two strands. First, classical pole assignment problem, and especially, obtaining parametric general solutions to this problem in a computer algebra framework is treated. Secondly, given a general parametric solution to the pole assignment problem, finding robust compensators that D-Stabilise the closed-loop system is considered. A summary of post-Kharitonov results together with how to apply these results to the pole assignment problem for uncertain systems are given to this end.

Scaffolding: design issues in single & collaborative virtual environments for social skills learning
Authors: Steven J Kerr
Venue: Proceedings of the workshop on Virtual environments 2002 (2002)

Virtual Environments (VE's) are seen as having great potential for teaching people with autism. This paper looks at research being carried out as part of the AS Interactive project to teach social skills to adults with Asperger's Syndrome. Design issues for VE's are discussed, in particular the scaffolding required to help ensure learning objectives are met both in single user(SVE) and collaborative environments (CVE). While no firm guidelines as to when it is appropriate to move from a SVE to a CVE are offered, the factors involved in the transition from one to the other are discussed.

Organizing shared enterprise workspaces using component-based cooperative hypermedia
Authors: Jessica Rubart, Jörg M. Haake, Daniel A. Tietze, Weigang Wang
Venue: Proceedings of the 12th ACM conference on Hypertext and Hypermedia (2001)

Cooperative work in Extended Enterprises needs a flexible shared workspace for team members to access and manipulate shared information objects in a well-coordinated working process. Current shared workspace systems do not adequately support the evolving character of shared workspaces as needed by Extended Enterprises, i.e. the dynamic cooperation processes, various kinds of shared information contents and the set of cooperative tools. In this paper, the usage scenarios and requirements developed in a European Extended Enterprise project are used to derive the requirements for shared enterprise workspaces. Our approach utilizes component-based cooperative hypermedia to organize shared enterprise workspaces that contain team and process structures, information contents and their corresponding tools. The approach extends classical hypertext models to shared hypermedia objects as well as dynamic bindings between these and the Groupware Components working on them. To demonstrate the approach, a prototype system and a prototypical usage scenario are presented.
