e-Science and CVEs • e-Science • Globally distributed resources • Communication between systems (Internet) • CVEs • Real-time, visual feedback for e-Science • Crude collaborative interaction (at present) • Example applications • Urban planning • Data visualization
Interaction in CVEs Urban planning Data visualization
Interaction in CVEs Urban planning Data visualization
Interaction in CVEs Urban planning Data visualization
CVE interaction research at Leeds • Independent views • Asynchronous collaboration • Group dynamics • Using urban planning/data visualization case studies
Asynchronous collaboration • History mechanisms • Trails (movement) • Comments
Group dynamics • Side channels of communication • Tightly-coupled interaction; body language;Synthetic faces (Hogg et al.) • e.g., using Covisa-G (Brodlie et al.)
Conclusions • Independent views • Asynchronous collaboration • Group dynamics • Representation
