Teleporting in an X Window System Environment
نویسندگان
چکیده
Teleporting is the ability to redirect a windowing environment to different computer displays. This paper describes the implementation of a teleporting system developed at Olivetti Research Laboratory (ORL). We outline two particular features of the system that make it powerful. First, it operates with existing applications, which will run without any modification. Second, it incorporates sophisticated techniques of personnel and equipment location which make it simple to use. Teleporting may represent a development in attempts to achieve a ubiquitous, personalised computing environment for all.

Global Teleporting with Java: Toward Ubiquitous Personalized Computing
Previous work has described teleporting, an approach to mobile computing in which it is the user's personal application environment which is mobile rather than the hardware on which the applications run. In this paper we describe a new teleporting system which makes the user's environment available on any machine in the world running a Java-compliant web browser. We present some preliminary exp...
متن کاملUsing Teleporting, Awareness and Multiple Views to Improve Teamwork in Collaborative Virtual Environments
Mobile Group Dynamics (MGDs) are a suite of techniques that help people work together in large-scale collaborative virtual environments (CVEs). The present paper describes the implementation and evaluation of three additional MGDs techniques (teleporting, awareness and multiple views) which, when combined, produced a 4 times increase in the amount that participants communicated in a CVE and als...
متن کاملLocal Interactions of an Entangled State with the Environment via Amplitude Damping Channel
Consider a two-qubit maximally entangled state that gets corrupted when only one of the qubits is subjected to local interaction with the environment via amplitude damping channel. We show that this corrupted state gets better by allowing the other qubit also to interact with the environment. Moreover if the corrupted state is non teleporting, then it can always be made teleporting by the same ...
متن کاملA Multi-Cursor X Window Manager Supporting Control Room Collaboration
Existing window systems have been designed to support a single user and they are not suitable for control room collaboration. This paper describes how to extend the X-window system to support multiple simultaneous cursors. In a collaborative control room environment a multi-cursor X window system can allow multiple users to simultaneously drag, control and input to windows on a shared display. ...
متن کاملAn X-window-based Distributed Application for Cooperative Work
The paper presents the design and implementation of a distributed application called OpenBoard Tutorial System (OTS) that supports cooperative work among users of window-based workstations. The application is based on the X window system and the SUN RPC protocol. The paper describes OTS as a system designed for conducting real-time tutorial in a distributed environment by allowing students to s...
