چکیده

We present Snakey, a tangible user interface (TUI) designed for the field of reservoir engineering. The Snakey interface focuses on intuitive manipulation and interaction with 3D curves common to underground well path planning. Our paper discusses design goals and prototyping solutions relating to the physical materials, sensing technology, input/output mapping, and multimodal information feedback of the Snakey TUI. The paper also discusses a design critique of the latest prototype interface performed by domain experts (experienced reservoir engineers) and concludes by outlining our findings regarding the next steps required to improve the current Snakey interface

Designing Snakey: A Tangible User Interface Supporting Well Path Planning

We present our ongoing design of Snakey, a tangible user interface (TUI) dedicated to the field of reservoir geosciences and engineering. Our design of Snakey emphasizes intuitive manipulation and interaction with 3D curves, common to underground well path exploration and planning. Snakey is not designed to replace the traditional CAD reservoir well path planning tools, but rather to augment th...

Oil and gas reservoir flow simulation models are computational models that converge reservoir data collected from several sources into a single entity. They are used by reservoir engineers to forecast reservoir behaviour, a fundamental activity for better understanding of the underground reserves; they are also analyzed and discussed by a team of experts in related fields, ultimately attempting...

Context-Aware Recommender Systems: A Review of the Structure Research

 Recommender systems are a branch of retrieval systems and information matching, which through identifying the interests and requires of the user, help the users achieve the desired information or service through a massive selection of choices. In recent years, the recommender systems apply describing information in the terms of the user, such as location, time, and task, in order to produce re...

سیستم پیشنهاد دهنده زمینه‌آگاه برای انتخاب گوشی تلفن همراه با ترکیب روش‌های تصمیم‌گیری جبرانی و غیرجبرانی

Recommender systems suggest proper items to customers based on their preferences and needs. Needed time to search is reduced and the quality of customer’s choice is increased using recommender systems. The context information like time, location and user behaviors can enhance the quality of recommendations and customer satisfication in such systems. In this paper a context aware recommender sys...
