Abstract

When people work collaboratively with physical forms of information such as post-it notes, charts, or storyboards, they often place them on a wall, where they can easily view, annotate, and organize the information. With advances in ubiquitous computing technology, rooms with multiple large displays, i.e., "active spaces", are becoming common. In such spaces, a single machine does not typically drive the multiple displays, and as a result, a user cannot easily move an application from one display to another. To address this need, we developed a mechanism that enables a user to control the display of applications across multiple displays. Our system is composed of an enabling architecture and an intuitive user interface that enables a user to easily share, juxtapose and organize different forms of electronic information.
