Recovering Context After Interruption

چکیده
As information systems become more complex and present an increasingly rich amount of information to users, interruptions present an ever larger hurdle to operational efficiency. User interface technologies intended to support increased user-control of the transitions between computer-based tasks can help mitigate that obstacle. We present a three-pronged approach that combines dynamic interruption coordination support with context review mechanisms to aid user navigation through interruptions. These mechanisms are implemented within a spoken dialogue interface system for a radio-based humansoftware agent military logistics task.

متن کاملThe influence of sensory memory and attention on the context effect in talker normalization
Studies on talker normalization have reported that contexts would affect how a vowel/consonant/tone is perceived, which suggests that listeners use cues in the context as a reference for speech perception. However, it is unclear how the cues of the context are encoded in memory, and to what extent the context effects are influenced by interruption in sensory memory and reduction in attentional ...
متن کاملSupport for Intelligent Interruption and Augmented Context Recovery
We describe work to support task alertness, mitigating the negative effects of interruption of one task by others competing for attention. These effects are ameliorated in two ways. First, by comparing the relative priorities of tasks from two domains, we decide whether to interrupt immediately, negotiate to interrupt completely now or later, or to schedule the interruption at the next cognitiv...
متن کاملEmpirical Validation of a Computer-Mediated Coordination of Interruption
User’s cognitive state is extremely fragile and sensitive to external interruption, especially when a user is performing a cognitively-taxing task. Given that interruptions frequently occur during human-computer interaction, and given the relative scarcity of human attention and their vulnerability to interruptions, interruption-resistance is needed to be considered when designing user interfac...
متن کاملHistorical Interruption and Continuity Attitude in Recent Changes in Architecture of Historical Iranian Fabrics
Review and continuation of the physical evidence can be pursued over a long period in Iranian architecture; however, the architecture of modernity occurred in persistence of Iranian architecture. The past architecture and discontinuity can be the factors deemed to avoid identity. Facing tradition against contemporary ideas is now a challenge in many primeval countries. Lack of intimacy and com...
