Cross-Device Taxonomy: Survey, Opportunities and Challenges of Interactions Spanning Across Multiple Devices

TL;DR: An analysis and taxonomy of a corpus of 510 papers in the cross-device computing domain is contributed to create a unified terminology and common understanding for researchers in order to facilitate and stimulate future cross- device research.

HuddleLamp: Spatially-Aware Mobile Displays for Ad-hoc Around-the-Table Collaboration

TL;DR: HuddleLamp as mentioned in this paper is a desk lamp with an integrated RGB-D camera that precisely tracks the movements and positions of mobile displays and hands on a table, enabling a new breed of spatially-aware multi-user and multi-device applications for around-the-table collaboration without an interactive tabletop.

Toward a framework for ecologies of artifacts: how are digital artifacts interconnected within a personal life?

TL;DR: A concept of ecology of artifacts is suggested to describe any implicit or explicit relationships among interactive artifacts in one's personal life to help designers and researchers in the field of HCI to create and analyze interactive artifacts considering their dynamic interplays in an increasingly ubiquitous technology environment.

The Human–Artifact Model: An Activity Theoretical Approach to Artifact Ecologies

TL;DR: The human–artifact model is developed, which has its roots in activity theoretical HCI, and is used to structure such analysis and to reason about findings while providing leverage from activity theoretical insights on mediation, dialectics, and levels of activity.

Interaction with Large Displays: A Survey

TL;DR: The evolution of large interactive displays is discussed by looking at their use and analyzing how they are changing the concept of human-computer interaction through new modalities, by surveying the literature on systems using these displays.

The Ethnography of Infrastructure

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors ask methodological questions about studying infrastructure with some of the tools and perspectives of ethnography, which is both relational and ecological, and they propose a methodology for studying infrastructure that is both ecological and relational.

Dealing with mobility: understanding access anytime, anywhere

TL;DR: A study of mobile workers that highlights different facets of access to remote people and information, and different facet of anytime, anywhere, and four key factors in mobile work are identified.

Yesterday’s tomorrows: notes on ubiquitous computing’s dominant vision

TL;DR: This article explores the vision that has driven the ubiquitous computing research agenda and the contemporary practice that has emerged, and argues for developing a “ubicomp of the present” which takes the messiness of everyday life as a central theme.

Seamful interweaving: heterogeneity in the theory and design of interactive systems

TL;DR: This work critiques the 'disappearance' mentioned by Weiser as a goal for ubicomp, and Dourish's 'embodied interaction' approach to HCI, suggesting that these design ideals may be unachievable or incomplete because they underemphasise the interdependence of 'invisible' non-rationalising interaction and focused rationalising interaction within ongoing activity.

Mobile kits and laptop trays: managing multiple devices in mobile information work

TL;DR: A study at a large IT company shows that mobile information workers frequently migrate work across devices, and workers' strategies of coping with these problems center on the physical handling of devices and cross-device synchronization.
