Augmented reality is a form of virtual reality that uses see-throughdisplays to enhance the world will computer generated material. Whencombined with more traditional palm, tablet and wall sized displays, apowerful augmented computing environment emerges in which two andthree dimensional information can be presented to a usersimultaneously on a combination of two and three dimensionaldisplays. This gives us a wider variety of interaction techniquesand ways of organizing information. The simple techniques used forwindow management in two dimensional graphical user interfaces, thatrely on the user to manual arrange windows, will not extend well intothis environment. More powerful, automated environment managementtechniques are required. We are investigating one approach to solvingthis problem, using a combination of expert system andconstraint-based techniques.<p>We are building a testbed (<!WA11><a href="http://www.cs.columbia.edu/graphics/projects/coterie">COTERIE</a>) for fast prototyping of distributed virtualenvironment systems that supports multiple simultaneous usersinteracting in environments with many heterogenous displays and inputdevices. The testbed is designed around a multi-threaded, modular,object oriented programming model and supports fully transparentdistributed communications via both client-server and fully replicateddistributed objects. By building applications as groups of cooperatingthreads, a single programming model can be used for both single andmultiprocess programs. Both interpretted (<!WA12><A HREF="http://www.research.digital.com/SRC/personal/Luca_Cardelli/Obliq/Obliq.html">Obliq</a>) and compiled(<!WA13><A HREF="http://www.research.digital.com/SRC/modula-3/html/home.html">Modula-3</A>)languages are simultaneously available to the application programmer.<p>An important component of this testbed is a high-level, distribtedgraphics library. By making the library objects directlydistributable, programmers operate on the scene graphs directly,allowing complex distributed graphical applications to be created in astraightforward manner.<p>Finaly, we are building a number of applications using this testbed andenvironment management to both demonstrate their utility and pointthe way towards future research.<p><hr><h2>Talks</h2><ul><li><!WA14><a href="http://www.cs.columbia.edu/~bm/phdtalk96/index.htm">Here</a> are the slides from a short, informal talk I gave during our PhD student Informal Talks series this summer. <li><!WA15><a href="http://www.cs.columbia.edu/~bm/uist96-talk/.index.html">Here</a> are the slides from a the talk I gave at UIST'96.</ul><hr><h2><!WA16><a href="http://www.cs.columbia.edu/~bm/3dcards/3d-cards1.html">The 3D Hardware accelerator FAQ Part 1</a> and <!WA17><a href="http://www.cs.columbia.edu/~bm/3dcards/3d-cards2.html">Part 2</a> </h2><i>(Last updated: Tue Mar 19 19:23:27 EST 1996)</i> <p>This is the FAQ I'm maintaining of 3D accelerators for PCs.
