Editor's Notes
- #2: Name – framework for building analytical spaces that go beyond a single device – done by our group includes Eli Fisher, Niklas – Now, taking a few steps back into the past --
- #3: Mark Weiser had the vision of ubiquitous computing in which technologies evolve disappear into the background to aid us in achieving higher and bigger goals – Ubicomp inspires many fields including mobile computing, distributed computing, and HCI. However, Ubicomp has not made a lot of progress in visualization (Segue)
- #4: (start animation) We do have some brilliant research on co-located collaborative visualization including
- #5: (start animation) and we have some research exploring the Mobile visualization
- #6: In order to apply Mark Weiser’s vision and combine these efforts to interact with data in visual form anywhere and anytime for analytical processes, an approach called ubiquitous analytics was proposed. To understand how ubiquitous analytics is useful, lets consider an emergency situation (Segue)
- #7: During an emergency situation – get data form multiple sources (resource information, sensor, social media) – multiple analysts and stakeholders working together on multiple devices (segue)
- #8: They can work with multiple devices, interact with a visualization through gestures with large displays, collaborate with others, and finally we have users not confined to a single office space (without restrictions). In order to develop ubilytics applications we need
- #9: Summing it up… we have 4 requirements To support development of applications for ubiquitous analytics we created the Munin framework (segue) Cross-platform, to support heterogeneous devices. Peer-to-peer, to avoid servers and increase robustness. Graphics-agnostic, since devices have varying APIs. Multiple concurrent users with concurrent interactions. Co-located and synchronous collaboration support. Multiple input sources, such as touch, gestural, pen- based, tangible, and full-body interaction. Multiple output sources, such as wall-mounted, table- top, mobile, volumetric, and tangible displays. Visualization mechanisms and patterns (e.g., [60]). Multiple visual representations and views [11].
- #10: In our research, we created Munin, a framework for ubiquitous analytics spaces. Munin is a middleware framework Munin is decentralized. It connects the devices over a p2p infrastructure, no client/servers involved. It has a three layers. Java
- #11: Looking closer at the architecture, We have multiple devices connected over a shared space, generating multiple services, which are accessed by a visualization layer.
- #12: The shared state is essentially created through multicast in the P2P infrastructure. It contains an associative memory to store shared objects (for example) and an event space to share the generated events. Lets take a quick look at the code for accessing shared space. Moving on to the Service layer--
- #13: It can contain services such as for display, input handling, and even for managing computation. These services commute with the shared events and sometimes the shared objects to update the view on each device. Other than generic services such as display, input, computation, we can also create custom services, for example, zoom and pan, with the Munin framework.
- #14: The visualization layer sits on top of the service and shared state layers to support development of visualization. It provides a shared relational data structure to store structured data, and a distributed scene graph to draw the graphical abstractions for visualization.
- #16: We made three example applications using the Munin framework.
- #17: One of our most sophisticated - Visual search of real estate information visualized on map. – shared and public view – personal and private view (segue)
- #18: Tabletop for coupled work and tablet to individual exploration, provides a branch explore merge kinda scenario for visual exploration – the second example is a distributed version of an existing technique (segue)
- #19: The first example is an multi-screen or distributed version of PolyZoom. This lets you build hierarchies of focus regions such that each subsequent level in this tree shows a higher magnification.
