“…Multimodal interfaces, similarly, offer users a natural way of interacting with smart spaces since humans use several senses to perceive the world. From the design point of view, multimodal interfaces and physical browsing make it possible to distribute User-to-Resource interaction between users' mobile devices and the smart space resources [7,43]. For example, Turunen et al [60] demonstrated a prototype of a distributed multimodal interface for smart spaces which was implemented as a combination of a physical browsing solution with gesture and voice recognition technologies.…”

Recently, we have been witnessing how various social applications and networking services are being integrated more deeply into our daily lives. Until now, social interaction has been attributed exclusively to humans, while resources and the smart space have supported interaction as passive mediators only. However, the involvement of smart spaces as an active actor in the interaction process facilitates more flexible and user-centered applications for users. This article explores how knowledgebased technologies enable smart spaces to actively take part in the interaction. We argue that smart spaces should be able not only to adapt their behaviour according to the actions of humans and other participants, but also initiate interaction when it is necessary. In order to support this statement, we categorise the types of interaction from the participants' perspective, and review and evaluate the technologies enabling interaction in smart spaces. Furthermore, we present our constructive research on interaction in smart spaces: proof-of-concept prototype applications realizing different architectures and supporting various types of interaction in smart spaces.

“…An approach for dynamic distribution of UIs at run-time is discussed in [1], where the authors highlight the availability of diverse devices that characterise smart networked environments. Among the potentialities of distributed user interfaces in such contexts, there is the possibility for the user to enhance the interaction, for instance by increasing the communication bandwidth.…”

“…Multi-modality occurs when the multi-device interface simultaneously supports two or more interaction modalities in one (at least) of the devices involved. Various modalities have been considered in the dynamic interactors distribution proposed in [1], where the authors assume that each device category available in a smart environment has specific interaction resources (IRs). The approach is based on distribution of UI interactors among available IRs (devices).…”

In this paper, we present a framework for describing various design dimensions that can help in better understanding the features provided by tools and applications for multi-device environments. We indicate the possible options for each dimension, and also discuss how various research proposals in the area are located in our framework. The final discussion also points out important areas for future research.

“…Specific aspects like the distribution requirement description that is needed to compute the dynamic distribution of application components are not part of the meta-model. The approaches in [5,6] describe the use of UI properties to characterize the distribution of abstract UI elements on model layer -the CARE-properties [7]. They allow to bind an abstract UI to a concrete device of the smart environment during the design time.…”

Multi-device scenarios pave the way for new applications that allow the user to interact collaboratively with other users or enhance the interaction through the combination of different devices. To realize such applications, a new development paradigm is needed. Traditional methods do not support the dynamic extension or alteration of the application's feature set. Our approach is based on the idea of modeling the composition and distribution of several application components, so that the component implementations and their assignment to specific execution environments (component distribution) can be determined dynamically. All application components are linked together as an overlay network in the context of the multi-device environment. Therefore, we propose an architecture of a runtime environment and an overview of the component distribution process during the load-time of a multi-device mashup.
