Augmented Interactions: A Framework for Adding Expressive Power to GUI Widgets

摘要: The basic elements of WIMP interfaces have proven to be robust components for building interactive systems, but these standard interactors also limitations. On many occasions, researchers introduced augmented GUI that are capable more expressive interactions and better suited user tasks. Although novel designs been effective, still invented in an ad-hoc fashion, there is no systematic way thinking about or designing augmentations. As a result, little understanding the principles underlying augmentation, relationships between different designs, possibilities creating new interactors. In this paper we present framework specifies elemental with identifies possible ways which augmentations can occur. We show explanatory generative power by analysing existing interactions.
