Multiple User Interfaces

Beschreibung

Multiple User Interfaces allow people using mobile phones, laptops, desk tops, palm tops or PDAs to access and read informationfrom their central server or the internet in a coherent andconsistent way and to communicate effectively with other users whomay be using different devices. MUIs provide multiple views of theinformation according to the device used and co-ordinatecommunication between the users. Multiple User Interfaces: Engineering and ApplicationsFrameworks is the first work to describe user interface designfor mobile and hand-held devices such as mobile phones. Given theproliferation of books on web site design in the late '90s, thispromises to be the forerunner in a new wave of books dealing withthe issues specific to small screens, limited memory and wirelesstransmission. It also deals with problems relating tomulti-user functionality and sharing the same application overvarious platforms. * Offers a comprehensive account of state-of-the-artresearch * Combines human and technical aspects including socialinteraction, workflow, HCI, & system architectures. * Provides practical toolkits, guidelines and experiencereports * Includes contributions from leading experts at allthe key institutions - Virginia Tech, ConcordiaUniversity, Lancaster University, Ericsson &Intel With such a unique and cutting-edge approach researchers anddevelopers working on user interface design in companiesmanufacturing handsets and other portable devices, university HCIgroups and companies providing web-based information services fordelivery to hand-held devices will find this indispensable.
