“…Models specify a behavioral matrix to assist in the adaptation rules development. DynaMo-AID [24] is a design process and a runtime architecture to develop context-aware user interfaces that support dynamic context changes. Aleksy et al [25] defined an architecture that enables the dynamic loading of different elements of a mobile application, including the output components.…”

In Pervasive Computing environments, people are surrounded by a lot of embedded services. Since pervasive devices, such as mobile devices, have become a key part of our everyday life, they enable users to always be connected to the environment, making demands on one of the most valuable resources of users: human attention. A challenge of the mobile computing systems is regulating the request for users' attention. In other words, service interactions should behave in a considerate manner by taking into account the degree to which each service intrudes on the user's mind (i.e., the degree of obtrusiveness). The main goal of this paper is to introduce self-adaptive capabilities in mobile computing systems in order to provide non-disturbing interactions. We achieve this by means of an software infrastructure that automatically adapts the service interaction obtrusiveness according to the user's context. This infrastructure works from a set of high-level models that define the unobtrusive adaptation behavior and its implication with the interaction resources in a technology-independent way. Our infrastructure has been validated through several experiments to assess its correctness, performance, and the achieved user experience through a user study.

“…Basée sur CTT [Paternó 1999], la notation Dynamo-AID [Clerckx 2007] est une notation exprimant cette notion de modalité en l'associant à une tâche élémentaire (feuille d'un arbre de tâches) pour préciser l'interaction concrète. Dispositif.…”

International audience Multi-user multimodal interactive systems involve multiple users who can use multiple interaction modalities. Multi-user multimodal systems are becoming more prevalent, especially systems based on large shared multi-touch surfaces or video game centers such as Wii or Xbox. In this article we address the description of the tasks with such interactive systems. We review existing notations for the description of tasks with a multi-user multimodal interactive system and focus particularly on tree-based notations. For elementary tasks (e.g. actions), we also consider the notations that describe multimodal interaction. The contribution is then a comparison of existing notations based on a set of organized concepts. While some concepts are general to any notation, other concepts are specific to human-computer interaction, or to multi-user interaction and finally to multimodal interaction. De nombreux systèmes interactifs, professionnels ou grand public, permettent conjointement l’interaction multiutilisateur et multimodale. Un système interactif est multimodal lorsqu’un utilisateur peut interagir avec le système par l’usage de plusieurs modalités d’interaction (en entrée ou en sortie) de façon parallèle ou non. Nous constatons que de plus en plus de systèmes multiutilisateurs ou collecticiels sont multimodaux, comme ceux construits autour d’une surface interactive et les consoles de jeu de type Wii ou Xbox. Nous traitons dans cet article de la description des tâches-utilisateur avec de tels systèmes interactifs multiutilisateurs et multimodaux. Précisément, nous dressons un panorama des notations existantes permettant la description des tâches mono ou multi-utilisateur avec une attention particulière pour les notations à base d’arbre de tâches. Nous focalisons aussi sur les tâches élémentaires ou actions mono/multi-modales de l’utilisateur en considérant les notations de description de l’interaction multimodale. Pour cela, nous proposons une étude comparative d'un ensemble de notations de description selon une grille d’analyse regroupant des concepts généraux à l’interaction et des concepts propres à l’interaction multiutilisateur et multimodale.

“…The work of Hervás et al [14] presents a conceptual model to link context information with pervasive elements in order to personalize the offered services of these elements. Other works, such as DynaMO-AID [15] or the work of Blumendorf et al [16], define a runtime architecture to process context data to support migration, distribution, and multi-modality. However, these works define the adaptation space in terms of the environment and the platform.…”

The automation of user routine tasks is one of the most important challenges in the development of Ambient Intelligence systems. However, this automation may be annoying since some tasks may grab users attention in inappropriate situations. Since user attention is a valuable resource, task automation must behave in a considerate manner demanding user attention only when it is required. To address this issue, this work presents a systematic method for supporting the design and automation of unobtrusive routine tasks that can adjust their obtrusiveness level at runtime according to the user attentional resources and context. This method proposes to design the routine tasks that the system must carry out and how they must interact with users in terms of obtrusiveness. The method also provides a software infrastructure that makes the execution of the tasks at the appropriate obtrusiveness degree a reality. Finally, the system has been validated by means of usefulness and performance tests and a practical case study that demonstrates the correctness and applicability of our approach without compromising system performance.
