TableTop First IEEE International Workshop on Horizontal Interactive Human-Computer Systems Adelaide, Australia, 05-07 January 2006

The use of the tabletop as an input/output device is an exciting and emerging domain of computer systems. This is cross disciplinary domain. An example set of combining areas are as follows: projector based display systems, augmented reality, user interface technologies, multi-modal interactions, CSCW, and information visualization. Tabletop 2006 presents current results on ongoing investigations, maps out the current coverage of the research domain, and explores future research directions. Typically, the focus of research is on planar activities such document handling, planning, collaborative activities, and games. Considering the focus on system infrastructure, the employment of tangible input devices, and the integration of intelligent walls, there is now a great potential benefit for researchers to meet and present their research within the framework of an international workshop. Tabletop 2006 provides a rich opportunity to build a firm scientific foundation of tabletop technologies that will result in further collaborations among tabletop researchers.Fjeld is the author of 'TableTop First IEEE International Workshop on Horizontal Interactive Human-Computer Systems Adelaide, Australia, 05-07 January 2006', published 2006 under ISBN 9780769524948 and ISBN 076952494X.
