Information Display Retrospective: Looking Back Over 50-Plus Years of Information Display

The Display of Temporal Information

Beyond Ambient Display: A Contextual Taxonomy of Alternative Information Display

With the recent emergence of a wide range of information displays that reach beyond the traditional graphics-based computer screen, it seems that the original definition of ambient display, and its focus on user attention and aesthetics, has become diluted. Instead, we propose a taxonomy of alternative information displays that is mainly based on context, in terms of the data it represents and ...

Information Assembly for Adaptive Display

In a world where information is increasingly delivered to users via different devices with dramatically different constraints and capabilities, it is becoming crucial to consider how the presentation of information must be adapted to suit specific devices and user contexts. To avoid confusing and disorienting the users as they switch between devices, the content and structure of information sho...

Crossmodal Icons for Information Display

Information display by transcriptional enhancers.

Transcriptional enhancers integrate positional and temporal information to regulate the complex expression of developmentally controlled genes. Current models suggest that enhancers act as computational devices, receiving multiple inputs from activators and repressors and resolving them into a single positive or a negative signal that is transmitted to the basal transcriptional machinery. We sh...
