Multimodal Interactive Maps: Designing for Human Performance.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Oviatt, Sharon – Human-Computer Interaction, 1997
Analyzes interfaces supporting spoken, pen-based, and multimodal input for their effectiveness in interacting with interactive map systems. Results identified performance difficulties with speech-only map interactions that declined substantially when people could interact multimodally. Analyses also indicated that map displays can be structured to…

Toward an Information Visualization Workspace: Combining Multiple Means of Expression.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Roth, Steven F.; Chuah, Mei C.; Kerpedjiev, Stephan; Kolojejchick, John A.; Lucas, Peter – Human-Computer Interaction, 1997
Presents an information visualization workspace in which users are able to explore data presented in diverse but coordinated formats using related systems called Visage, SAGE, and selective dynamic manipulation (SDM). Discusses four dimensions for analyzing user interfaces that reveal the combination of design approaches needed for visualizations…

Representing Cognitive Activity in Complex Tasks.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Barnard, Philip J.; May, Jon – Human-Computer Interaction, 1999
Interacting cognitive subsystems (ICS) is proposed as a unified cognitive theory that can be used as the basis for representations in human-computer interaction, and two approaches based on the theory are described: one entails the description of cognitive task models, and the other entails the production of less complete diagrammatic notations.…
