Dan Robbins · Microsoft Research.The Task Gallery: A 3D Window Manager
April 21, 2000
Over the last several years our research group has been working
on ways of letting users easily view, access, and manage large
amounts of information.
Dan will present the current state of the group's research as
embodied by the Task Gallery, a 3D window manager. This interface
attempts to take advantage of user's natural spatial abilities.
Dan will focus on the design process, trade-offs made, then discuss
the ongoing evaluation stage.
