Supporting Collaborative Design

Parametric Modelling Supporting Collaborative Design

In our paper, we will (1) discuss the primary motivations for the usage of parametric data in Collaborative Design. (2) Describe a project currently implemented using parametric modelling in Revit and Bentley. The final section of this paper, section (3), will investigate how the above mentioned libraries behave when they are transferred from one modelling program to another. The use of this ty...

Using Interactive Design Activity Visualizations for Supporting Collaborative Sketching Sessions

In this paper we describe a novel approach for supporting co-located collaborative sketching sessions. Our system is based on digital pen & paper and an interactive visualization that can be used by a session facilitator for examining live design activity. We argue that such visualizations may provide benefits for improving creative group work without the need to change traditional practices. A...

Remote Collaborative Multi-user Informal Learning Experiences: Design and Evaluation

This paper presents a customizable system used to develop a collaborative multi-user problem solving game. It addresses the increasing demand for appealing informal learning experiences in museum-like settings. The system facilitates remote collaboration by allowing groups of learners to communicate through a videoconferencing system and by allowing them to simultaneously interact through a sha...

User Interface Design in Mobile Educational Applications

Introduction: User interfaces are a crucial factor in ensuring the success of mobile applications. Mobile Educational Applications not only provide flexibility in learning, but also allow learners to learn at any time and any place. The purpose of this article is to investigate the effective factors affecting the design of the user interface in mobile educational applications. Methods: Quantita...
