CHI '99 extended abstracts on Human factors in computing systems - CHI '99, 1999
Science fiction introduced the idea of an electronic book; some early prototypes showed the potential of such devices (Kay and Goldberg, 1977); now we have the technology to implement these ideas (Lewis, 1998; Schilit et al., 1998). Still missing, however, is a principled look at interaction design and features that make electronic books useable and ...

Proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Interacción Persona-Ordenador - INTERACCION '12, 2012
This paper examines the influence of the loss of reference points for the digital readout in user interaction. This has been done using 5 eBooks from different disciplines, accessed through various consultation platforms. We have examined different aspects of the information architecture of these sites to find out if users are aware of their location ...

International Journal of Human-Computer Studies, 2012
We describe a software book model that emulates a range of properties associated with physical books-analog page turning, visual location cues, bookmarks and annotations-and, furthermore, incorporates many advantages of digital environments-hyperlinks, multimedia, full-text search, automatic identification of synonyms, cross-referencing of key terms ...

Library Hi Tech, 1988
The Smart Book involves the direct application of computer technology to the book marketplace. It employs speacial‐purpose equipment to simplify the user's access to information that would normally be found in a printed book. The concept invovles two distinct components: a reader unit and a book pack.

1996 IEEE International Conference on Multi Media Engineering Education. Conference Proceedings, 2002
Unlike traditional books which are passive, the Electronic Book lends itself to dynamic user interactions and is active. Multimedia technology enhances Electronic Books with video, sound, and animation in addition to text. Present generation authoring tools such as Authorware which are used to create multimedia electronic books, are designed as ...

Work Study, 1991
Examines the progress being made in the search for electronic books and the relevant criteria to make the concept work. States that the book has faults ‐the static nature of the text and the passive nature of the material – which the electronic book format can overcome, citing developments in pocket Pcs, CD‐ROM, databases, hypertext, text retrieval ...
