Tutorial I Tuesday, Jan 5th - 9:30 to 12:30 pm Intelligent Interfaces: An Introduction Mark Maybury, The MITRE Corporation   Abstract: Intelligent user interfaces promise to improve interaction for all. Drawing upon material from the recently completed Readings in Intelligent User Interfaces (IUI) (Maybury and Wahlster, 1998), this tutorial will define terms, outline the history, describe key subfields, and exemplify and demonstrate intelligent user interfaces in action. About Mark Maybury: Mark Maybury received his M.Phil. in Computer Speech and Language Processing (1987) and his Ph.D. in Artificial Intelligence (1991) for his dissertation, "Generating Multisentential Text using Communicative Acts" at Cambridge University. He was awarded an MBA from RPI in 1989. Mark has organised multiple international symposia, given tutorials, and published over fifty technical and tutorial articles in the area of language generation, multimedia presentation, text summarization, and intelligent multimedia information retrieval. Mark is editor of Intelligent Multimedia Interfaces (AAAI/MIT Press, 1993), Intelligent Multimedia Information Retrieval (AAAI/MIT Press, 1997) and co-editor of Readings on Intelligent User Interfaces (Morgan Kaufmann Press, 1998), Advances in Text Summarization (MIT Press, 1999) and Readings in Knowledge Management (forthcoming). Mark is Executive Director for of MITRE’s Information Systems Division.	[top]
Tutorial II Tuesday, Jan 5th - 2:00 to 5:00 pm Designing and Evaluating Intelligent User Interfaces Kristina Höök, SICS, Swedish Institute of Computer Science   Abstract: Intelligent user interfaces have been proposed as a means to overcome some of the problems that direct-manipulation interfaces cannot handle, such as: information overflow problems; providing help on how to use complex systems; or real-time cognitive overload problems. Intelligent user interfaces are also being proposed as a means to make sys-tems individualised or personalised, thereby increasing the systems flexibility and appeal. But in order for intelligent user interface to gain ground and be of real use to their users, more attention has to be given to usability issues. In this tutorial we shall discuss methods for design and evaluation of intelligent user interfaces from a usability perspective. About Kristina Höök: Instructor Kristina Höök is a researcher at SICS, the Swed-ish Institute of Computer Science. She holds a Ph.D. in Computer and Systems Sciences. The thesis topic was the design, implementation and evaluation of an adaptive hy-permedia system to be used in an industrial setting at Er-icsson AB. Kristina also gives a course on Intelligent User Interfaces at the Royal Institute of Technology and Stock-holm University in Stockholm.	[top]
Tutorial III Tuesday, Jan 5th - 2:00 to 5:00 pm Intelligent Interface Agents Henry Lieberman, MIT Media Lab   Abstract: Attendees will come away with a real, no-nonsense under-standing of "the agent phenomenon"; why people are ex-cited about agents, what the range of applicability of interface agent systems is, what is good and bad about agents, how to learn more about agents, and what is necessary to build them. About Henry Lieberman: Henry Lieberman has been a Research Scientist at the MIT Media Laboratory since 1987. He is a member of the Software Agents group, which is concerned with making intelligent software that assists users in interactive interfaces. His current projects involve intelligent agents for the Web that learn by "watching what you do." Other projects include an interactive graphic editor that learns from examples, and from annotation on images and video; debugging and visualization for programming environments, and new graphic metaphors for information visualization and navigation. From 1972-87, he was a researcher at the MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, where he worked in the group that originally developed Logo, and with Carl Hewitt on Actors. He introduced the notion of prototypes in object-oriented systems. He holds a doctoral-equivalent degree from the University of Paris VI and was a Visiting Professor there in 1989-90.	[top]
