چکیده

With the World Wide Web (WWW) becoming the de facto standard for human-computer interaction and human-human communication, there is a need to develop net-centric, multimedia and collaborative applications. We introduce a new scripting language, JACIE, designed to support rapid prototyping and implementation of such applications. The necessity to support the management of multimedia interaction and communication in collaborative applications is highlighted. JACIE facilitates such support through the concepts of channels and a collection of interaction protocols. JACIE also features a template-based programming style, a single program for both client and server, and platform-independence by using Java as the target language. All these features characterise a desirable collaborative software engineering tool.

EMIL: A Rapid Prototyping Authoring Environment for the Design of Interactive Surface Applications

Interactive surfaces (IS) like digital tabletop systems offer a cornucopia of input possibilities like touch gestures or interaction with physical objects. Additionally, multiple users can interact simultaneously allowing for a collaborative setting. These aspects have increased the complexity of designing such interfaces as compared to WIMP interfaces. However, existing UI design approaches fa...
