This workshop position paper describes our prior and ongoing research on horizontal
computing systems, which is focused on understanding how interactive tables can effectively …

While digital tables can be used with existing applications, they are typically limited by the
one user per computer assumption of current operating systems. In this paper, we explore …

Although electronic media has changed how people interact with documents, today's
electronic documents and the environments in which they are used are still impoverished …

This paper explores users' interpersonal interactions during collaboration around a tabletop
display, in order to better understand the affordances offered by this medium. We investigate …

This paper proposes a novel paradigm: human-centered tabletop computing, which
enhances the role of an ordinary table by projecting interactive images onto tabletop objects …

While" displays" have the connotation of affording visual output," surfaces" invite the users to
interact. What happens then when the surfaces are also displays, when a direct input …

A digital tabletop offers several advantages over other groupware form factors for
collaborative applications. However, users of a tabletop system do not share a common …

To date, digital tabletop research has predominantly focused on resolving fundamental
software and hardware challenges introduced by this new interactive platform …

Multi-person tabletop applications that require a high display resolution, such as
collaborative web-browsing, are currently very difficult to create. Tabletop systems that …

Most tabletop groupware systems provide a single shared display, and users must
coordinate access to both resources and space. In many situations, it can be difficult to …
