n TECHNICAL PRESENTATIONS | BALLROOM G
OLD MOUSE, NEW TRICKS: DESKTOP INTERFACES
SESSION CHAIR: Krzysztof Gajos, Harvard University, United States
PAPER | Augmenting the Scope of Interactions with
Implicit and Explicit Graphical Structures
Raphael Hoarau, Stephane Conversy, Université de Toulouse -
ENAC/IRIT, France
Discusses graphical interaction with structures, and with multiple
objects through structures. Introduces two novel and consistent
interactive tools: ManySpector, an enhanced inspector, and userprovided
dependency links.
PAPER | Taming Wild Behavior: The Input Observer for
Text Entry and Mouse Pointing Measures from Everyday
Computer Use
Abigail Evans, Jacob Wobbrock, University of Washington, USA
Presents a tool that can measure text entry and mouse pointing
performance from everyday computer use. Device makers,
researchers, and assistive technology specialists may benefit from
measures of everyday use.
PAPER | Dwell-and-Spring: Undo for Direct Manipulation
Caroline Appert, Olivier Chapuis, Univ Paris-Sud, France
Emmanuel Pietriga, INRIA, France
Presents Dwell-and-Spring a technique that uses the metaphor of
springs to enable users to undo direct manipulations. Evaluation
shows that users quickly adopt it as soon as discovered.
72 | ACM Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems
ToCHI | WindowScape: Lessons Learned from a Task
Centric Window Manager
Craig Tashman, Keith Edwards, Georgia Tech, USA
Deployment study of a scaling window manager that supports
organization and grouping. Also discusses design process,
particularly including alternatives and tradeoffs.

SEARCH INTERFACES
SESSION CHAIR: Remco Chang, Tufts University, USA
PAPER | Best Faces Forward: A Large-scale Study of
People Search in the Enterprise
Ido Guy, Sigalit Ur, Inbal Ronen, IBM Research, USA
Sara Weber, Tolga Oral, IBM CIO’s Office, USA
We present Faces, an application built to allow effective largescale
people search in the enterprise, and its usage analysis within
IBM along a time period of over 140 days.
PAPER | The Search Dashboard: How Reflection and
Comparison Impact Search Behavior
Scott Bateman, University of Saskatchewan, Canada
Jaime Teevan, Ryen White, Microsoft Research, UK
Describes the design of a reflective interface for search. A 5-week
study showed that after brief contact, users adopted new
behavior. Provides clear next steps for improving the search
experience.
PAPER | Building the Trail Best Traveled: Effects of
Domain Knowledge on Web Search Trailblazing
Xiaojun Yuan, State University of New York, USA
Ryen White, Microsoft Research, UK
User study on the impact of domain knowledge on Web search
trailblazing (creating URL sequences to help searchers). Can assist
search engine designers understand the benefit from employing
domain-expert trailblazers.
CASE STUDY | A Survey on Web Use: How People
Access, Consume, Keep, and Organize Web Content
Seungyon Claire Lee, Eamonn O’brien-Strain, Jerry Liu, Qian Lin,
Hewlett-Packard Laboratories, USA
This survey contributes to the design of cloud content repository
by exploring the relationship between content characteristics
(contacted by passive delivery vs. active discovery) and behavior
(access, consume, keep, organize).
