Modèles de conception pour des applications collaboratives dans le cloud / Design Models for Mobile Collaborative Applications in the CloudGuetmi, Nadir 12 December 2016 (has links)
De nos jours, nous assistons à une énorme avancée des applications collaboratives mobiles. Ces applications tirentparti de la disponibilité croissante des réseaux de communication et de l’évolution impressionnante des dispositifsmobiles. Cependant, même avec un développement en accélération, ils demeurent toujours pauvres en ressources(une courte durée de vie des batteries et une connexion réseau instable) et moins sécurisés. Dans le cadre de notretravail, nous proposons une nouvelle approche basée sur le déploiement des tâches de collaboration mobile versle cloud. La gestion d’une virtualisation efficace assurant la continuité de la collaboration pour des réseaux pairà-pair est une tâche très difficile. En effet, l’aspect dynamique des groupes (où les utilisateurs peuvent joindre,quitter ou changer de groupes) ainsi qu’une vulnérabilité aux pannes peuvent affecter la collaboration. En outre,la conception de telles applications doit prendre en compte l’hétérogénéité des environnements cloud et mobile.Contrairement aux travaux existants , nous proposons une architecture réutilisable de haut niveau basée sur les patronsde conception et qui peut être facilement adaptée à plusieurs environnements clouds et mobiles hétérogènes.Nos modèles ont été utilisés comme base pour la conception de : (i) MidBox, une plate-forme virtuelle pour exécuterdes applications collaboratives mobiles sur un cloud privé et (ii) MobiRDF, un service de cloud décentralisépour la manipulation en temps réel des connaissances via des documents RDF partagés. / Nowadays we assist to an enormous progress of mobile collaborative applications. These applications take advantage of the increasing availability of communication networks and the impressive evolution of mobile devices. However, even with a developing acceleration, they are still poor in resources (short life of batteries andunstable network connections) and less secure. In the context of our work, we propose a new approach based on the deployment of mobile collaboration tasks to the cloud. The management of efficient virtualization ensuring continuity of collaboration in peer-to-peer networks is a very difficult task. Indeed, the dynamic aspect of the groups (where users can join, leave or change groups) and a vulnerability to failures can affect the collaboration.In addition, the design of such applications must consider the heterogeneity of cloud and mobile environments.Unlike existing works, we propose a reusable high-level architecture based on patterns design, which can be easily adapted to heterogeneous clouds and mobile environments. Our models have been used as basis for the design of:(i) MidBox, a virtual platform for running mobile collaborative applications on a private cloud and (ii) MobiRDFa decentralized cloud service for real-time manipulation of knowledge via shared RDF documents.

Investigating Mobile Device-Based Interaction Techniques for Collocated MergingKühn, Romina, Korzetz, Mandy, Kallenbach, Felix, Kegel, Karl, Aßmann, Uwe, Schlegel, Thomas 23 July 2021 (has links)
In mixed-focus collaboration, group members create content both individually as a kind of groundwork for discussion and further processing as well as directly together in group work sessions. In case of individual creation, separate documents and contents need to be merged to receive an overall solution. In our work, we focus on mixed-focus collaboration using mobile devices, especially smartphones, to create and merge content. Instead of using emails or messenger services to share content within a group, we describe three different mobile device-based interaction techniques for merging that use built-in sensors to enable ad-hoc collaboration and that are easy and eyes-free to perform. We conducted a user study to investigate these merging interactions. Overall, 21 participants tested the interactions and evaluated task load and User Experience (UX) of the proposed device-based interactions. Furthermore, they compared the interactions with a common way to share content, namely writing an email to send attached content. Participants gave valuable user feedback and stated that our merging interaction techniques were much easier to perform. Furthermore, we found that they were much faster, less demanding, and had a greater UX than email.

Towards Interaction Design for Mobile Devices in Collocated Mixed-Focus CollaborationKühn, Romina, Korzetz, Mandy, Aßmann, Uwe, Grzelak, Dominik, Schlegel, Thomas 22 July 2021 (has links)
In collocated collaboration, applied methods and technologies to support the collaboration process mainly comprise either analog paper and pen methods, large display applications or the usage of several laptops. Whereas paper and pen are easy to use, they impair the digital documentation and further editing. Large displays are expensive, stationary, and depend on speci_c environments. Furthermore, laptops build physical barriers between people, which impedes face-to-face communication. This leads to the fact that direct digitization is still not often performed in collocated collaborative scenarios, although it would be useful for further processing or permanent storing of created content.To address advantages of analog media, especially small size and high ubiquity, and eliminate the disadvantages, namely the lack of direct digitization, we aim at applying mobile devices to collocated collaboration. To contribute to the development of future collaboration tools, we derive and propose concrete design goals for applying mobile devices in collocated mixed-focus collaboration.
