The content collection process can be enhanced by retrieving semantically related information objects, relevant to the topic selected by an author.

This paper describes a foundation for an interface to allow non-technical human authors to collaborate with an automated planning system to design interactive narrative. Drawing from research in advisable and mixed-initiative planning, a domain metatheory is presented that allows for qualitative elaborations of narrative domains. The authors describe a graphical user interface that exploits thi...

The authors have developed a new hardware/software device for persons with disabilities (the MotionComposer), and in the process created a number of interactive dance pieces for nondisabled professional dancers. The paper briefly describes the hardware and motion tracking software of the device before going into more detail concerning the mapping strategies and sound design applied to three int...

Computer-based highly interactive drama involves different authoring approaches, compared to linear media. Underlying design principles needs to be understood in order to guide the authoring process, to teach authors and to design better systems. This paper identifies a fundamental design principle termed Structural Writing that underlies some of the most generative approaches in interactive dr...

Interactive TV technology has been addressed in many previous works, but there is sparse research on the topic of interactive content broadcasting and how to support the production process. In this article, the interactive broadcasting process is broadly defined to include studio technology and digital TV applications at consumer set-top boxes.
