abstract |
In rich pervasive environments, there will be numerous opportunities for end users
to dynamically create services of interest by causing two or more devices or resources
to interoperate together, often under changing circumstances. In general, users find
this kind of process hard to manage. Existing programming architectures make the situation
difficult to address in a principled, scaleable way. Users find it hard to tackle
such problems via devices with small, resource-poor user interfaces. It is proposed
that a good theoretical basis for addressing an essential aspect of all of these problems
is the theory of Direct Combination. When the Direct Combination framework, based
on the theory, is applied to spontaneous interactions, the user interface can be made
relatively simple, and the amount of search required by the user to specify desired
actions can be greatly reduced. We present Direct Combination (DC) and the new interaction
techniques it gives rise to for pervasive environments. We consider two different
support architectures. We argue that one of these, the role-based architecture, has
particularly good properties for modelling rapidly changing pervasive environments,
and for highly distributed implementations. We demonstrate how the concept of viewpoints
can be used to focus, filter and afford operations, and how this can be well supported
by the role-based architecture. |
