This is the third edition of the workshop on Exploratory Search and Interactive data Analytics (ESIDA). This series of workshops emerged as a response to the growing interest in developing new methods and systems that allow users to interactively explore large volumes of data, such as documents, multimedia or specialised collections, such as biomedical datasets. There are various approaches to supporting users in this interactive environment ranging from the development of new algorithms through visualisation methods to analysing users' search patterns. The overarching goal of ESIDA is to bring together researchers working in areas that span across multiple facets of exploratory search and data analytics to discuss and outline research challenges for this novel area.

The growth in the capacity and capability of NAND Flash based storage systems have changed the face of data oriented computational systems. These systems have become both more capable and flexible in how they are used. With these changes comes both increased potential and user complexity. While many systems attempt to hide this complexity through the addition of more layers of storage caches, the design of the Wrangler system went a different route, choosing instead to build a simple yet flexible web based interface to allow users to easily configure this complex data computing system based on their service and software needs. This allows users to work in the environments best suited to their workflows while optimally utilizing the systems high performance and high capacity storage systems. This interface also allows users to schedule long term periods of reserved capacity, "data campaigns", for projects. Finally, the system has been designed to support the data storage and sharing capacities of the system to enable these key aspects of data research. We discuss the capabilities with respect to three already existing workflows on the system to highlight the diversity and flexibility provided by this environment to data researchers.

The process of building remote or virtual laboratories to be deployed via. Internet usually involves communication between different software tools. Very often, there is a separation between the software which interfaces with the model or real system, and the software responsible of providing the student with art interactive and visual representation of the data provided by the engineering system. Abstracting the way these two elements communicate with each other from the particular implementation, the requirements are frequently the same: connection and session control, data transmission control, user interaction handling, etc. This work describes a generic protocol to interoperate remotely any kind of engineering software. The solution proposes to encapsulate all the communication issues into an interoperability API that can be implemented in many different systems. In order to show the flexibility of such API, an implementation to intemperate MATLAB from Java userinterfaces via JSONRPC is explained in detail.

Electronics systems and their integration on the military land vehicles requires intensive testing. Most of the times required test are hardly conducted because of both the unavailability of the target systems and the importance of the safety factors. While cost of these electronics systems and engineering efforts are taken into account;the required tests need test software which can simulate a system or most of the unavailable systems. In an attempt to decrease the repetitive engineering effort spent on different vehicle projects and different vehicle variants, a software framework is designed to create automated graphical userinterfaces for complex data types on frequently used data buses in the vehicles. This article presents the purpose, motivation and technical development details of the software framework and the gained achievements of the project realization.

Automatic data dissemination systems are becoming increasingly relevant in internet-based information systems. In such systems, users subscribe to the dissemination service by providing interest profiles. These profiles are then used to determine which information should be delivered to which users, whenever new information is entered into the system. A main shortcoming of existing dissemination systems is the lack of any access control mechanisms, enabling selective information dissemination based for example on security or other regulatory policies. In this paper, we present an access control model suitable for dissemination systems. The model is based on user profiles containing both user interests and user credentials (i.e., a set of attributes characterizing users for access control purposes). information is then filtered before being delivered to users on the basis of both the user interests and credentials. To make authorization manageable when dealing with very large information systems, our model supports authorization domains, that allow one to group together information objects to which the same access control policies apply. Finally, in addition to formally defining our model and developing the related access control algorithm, we outline an implementation strategy.
We are interested in formal modelling and verification of security ceremonies. Considerable efforts have been put into verifying security protocols, with quite successful tools currently being widely used. The relativ...

Nowadays an ever increasing number of companies rely on Application Service Providers for hosting some or almost all software applications. In this domain, an effective way for customizing userinterfaces would be highly desirable. We propose a profiling system interacting with the applications in order to capture users' behavior. The system is based on Bayesian Networks and we show a strategy for combining data collected in each session and previous knowledge. Experiments on a prototype show that the proposed approach is promising.

End user Semantic Web Interaction is a field that is concerned with optimizing userinterfaces for semantic web applications. In this position paper, we present a different angle to this problem: instead of looking at the Semantic Web from a user interface perspective, we would like to look at userinterfaces from a Semantic Web perspective. Specifically, we are interested in graphical userinterfaces (GUIs) as used by applications in mainstream operating systems such as Windows. We argue that the ease with which data can be integrated, queried and manipulated in Semantic Web applications is something that can be transferred to GUI applications. To that end, we outline where current GUIs fall short and how ideas from the Semantic Web can help. Note: Even though exceptions sometimes apply, our assertions are deliberately general in order to paint a concise picture.

This article proposes a framework that will help analyze current and future output multimodal userinterfaces. We first define an output multimodal system. We then present our framework that identifies several different combinations of modalities and their characteristics. This framework assists in the selection of the most appropriate modalities for achieving efficient multimodal presentations. The discussion is illustrated with MulTab (Multimodal Table), an output multimodal system for managing large tables of numerical data.

System-of-systems integration requires sharing of data, algorithms, user authorization/authentication, and userinterfaces between independent systems. While SOA promises to solve the first issues the latter is still open. Within an experimental prototype for a distributed information system we have tested different methods to share not only the algorithmics and data of services but also their user interface. The experimental prototype consists of nodes providing services within process portals and nodes realizing services with software agents. Some of the services were extended with WSRP (web service remote portlet) to provide their own user interface components that can be transmitted between separated containers and application servers. Interoperability tests were conducted on JBoss and BEA Portal workshop. Open questions remain on how the layout of one component should influence the internal layout of other GUI-components displayed concurrently. Former work on user interface management systems could improve todays tools in that respect.
