We present HoloFlex, a 3D flexible smartphone featuring a light-field display consisting of a high-resolution P-OLED display and an array of 16,640 microlenses. HoloFlex allows mobile users to interact with 3D images featuring natural visual cues such as motion parallax and stereoscopy without glasses or head tracking. Its flexibility allows the use of bend input for interacting with 3D objects along the z axis. Images are rendered into 12-pixel wide circular blocks-pinhole views of the 3D scene-which enable similar to 80 unique viewports at an effective resolution of 160 x 104. The microlens array distributes each pixel from the display in a direction that preserves the angular information of light rays in the 3D scene. We present a preliminary study evaluating the effect of bend input vs. a vertical touch screen slider on 3D docking performance. Results indicate that bend input significantly improves movement time in this task. We also present 3D applications including a 3D editor, a 3D Angry Birds game and a 3D teleconferencing system that utilize bend input.

Although there are many kinetic garment artworks and studies (ex [3]), installing kinetic elements into garments is often difficult for people in the field of textile. The reason for this issue comes from the complexity of kinetic elements to be handled by such people. Thus, simple technology is required to enable those people to create new kinetic garment easily. In this project, we propose a simple toolkit that enables installing kinetic function to textiles. This toolkit is composed of Smart Hair(s), a fine, light weighted bending actuator, and an Arduino based microcomputer. The basic design of the proposed toolkit will be described. Furthermore, we held a workshop in cooperation with students who major in fashion and textile to investigate the effect of this toolkit.

In this demo we present a tangible UI concept for controlling the color of lighting. The interaction is performed by placing different color glass objects to a bowl of water. The system demonstrates an aesthetic design fora tangible UI, and aims to provide the user an experience-rich haptic UI. The demo aims towards decorative and calm UIs for home control systems. It seeks to hide conventional technology and switches, and is part of the ubiquitous computing design vision for calm computing.

This paper describes the experience of the first author with the Point-and-Click interface of the OnScreenDualScribe, created by the last author. The new interface is an innovative extension to the previous interface which required the use of the DualPad. The main differences between the two interfaces are highlighted. The user took several writing tests with the Point-and Click interface and compares her results with two of interfaces she uses the most for writing, Dragon NaturallySpeaking and SofType. Finally, the first author recommends several improvements to the interface which would make the software a better alternative for her.

Computational science and engineering (CSE) researchers usually develop their own technology computer-aided design (TCAD) programs, accompanying large-scale computation and I/O on high-performance computing (HPC) resources like clusters or supercomputers. The researchers typically use command-line interface (CLI) such as Terminal to access the HPC resources. But CLI may not be a useful tool to those who conduct research or get educated with the TCAD software, because of their unfamiliarity with executing a series of commands. Thus there has been a strong need on a platform that assists domain-specific scientists to easily share, access, and run TCAD services. To satisfy the need, in this poster we present a novel cyber-environment, called "Education-research Integration through Simulation On the Net" (EDISON), which has been designed and implemented to access and run various TCAD software tools developed in five selected CSE fields over the past four years. The EDISON platform comprises three layers: application portal to browse and run TCAD software, middleware to manage metadata associated with TCAD software and handle online simulation jobs, and infrastructure to support network, storage, and computing resources. In this demo a user will interact with the EDISON platform to perform two representative use-case scenarios: 1) browsing various TCAD tools, selecting one of the tools, controlling with its parameters, and running a simulation job from the tool, and 2) constructing a scientific workflow of selected TCAD tools and executing the workflow. At the end, the user will visualize the completed simulation results.

Mobile phone is being well integrated into people's daily life. Due to a large amount of time spending with them, users expect to have a good experience for their daily tasks. The mobile operating system's scheduler is in charge of distributing CPU computational power among these tasks. However, it currently has not yet taken into account dynamic frequencies of CPU cores at runtime. This unawareness of the scheduler with CPU frequency increases unresponsiveness of userinterface to user interactions, and consequently reduces user experience on using mobile devices. In this paper, we propose an extension of process scheduler which takes into account the dynamic CPU frequency when scheduling the tasks. Our method increases smoothness of userinterface to user interactions by lowering and stabilizing interface frame times. Experimental results show that our proposed scheduler reduces amount of frame time peaks up to 40%, which helps greatly in improving user experience on mobile devices.

Predicting user behaviour enables user assistant services provide personalized services to the users. This requires a comprehensive user model that can be created by monitoring user interactions and activities. BaranC is a framework that performs userinterface (UI) monitoring (and collects all associated context data), builds a user model, and supports services that make use of the user model. A prediction service, Next-App, is built to demonstrate the use of the framework and to evaluate the usefulness of such a prediction service. Next-App analyses a user's data, learns patterns, makes a model for a user, and finally predicts, based on the user model and current context, what application(s) the user is likely to want to use. The prediction is pro-active and dynamic, reflecting the current context, and is also dynamic in that it responds to changes in the user model, as might occur over time as a user's habits change. Initial evaluation of Next-App indicates a high-level of satisfaction with the service.
