This section will present the Breiny application’s user interface and the available interactions with it, features which will be evaluated by the users. Following the requirements for extensibility, modularity and flexibility, the subsequent visible objects were separated into several user controls.

My thesis proposes several approaches as result of the research questions. Their validity of each approach should be verified by allowing users to interact with a prototype built to fulfill all the proposed solutions. Hence, the final users will prove the correctness of this thesis approaches. The implemented prototype will be a brainstorming supporting application. Because my thesis studies brainstorming on a tabletop, I will choose the Microsoft Surface as the underlying hardware because it supports multitouch and multiuser experience. […]
is article presents the system architecture and the underlying decisions that were taken to achieve the above requirements. The system requires a repository for sessions, a repository for Brainstorming items and a native Windows application for achieving the baseline of desired features. Thus, a distributed client – server architecture is considered, exemplified here.
In this section the application requirements will be presented. They are split into functional and non-functional ones. The first refers to all the features needed to be implemented, while the second category refers to performance, extensibility and scalability of the system.
There are two sets of features that must or can be implemented: the first ones which regulate the brainstorming activity as a set of rules; the second ones add productivity to the process, enabling additional scenarios that improve the user experience.
My thesis claims as a basic concept that an ideal tabletop application supporting the brainstorming process must have an implemented answer to the issues raised above. Considering the first category of additional features which makes an application usable in the context of the brainstorming process, some properties were already mentioned and looked for in different applications: organization of ideas, relationships between ideas, sessions save and session restart for being continued.

As we read before in the Introduction, collaboration is a recursive and iterative process with the purpose of solving a problem or a situation in a systematic way (Dictionary 2007). It implies two or more individuals or organizations involvement in a mutually interested common goal. This process is creative in nature and its results are dependent on knowledge sharing, on learning from each team member and on building consensus towards a commonly recognized solution. Because humans are essentially different, the tendency […]
Radu Poenaru's Master thesis - The natural gesture of touching employed by the new devices’ interface led to it becoming ubiquitous. The interface dissolved itself in the device that we are using, creating a more natural interaction.
While creating the Windows Phone7 version of my Master Thesis project, I needed to show some custom dialogs. Because I wanted a clean, nice look which would be also familiar, I choose the layout of the Windows MessageBox.
The last milestone in my Master in Media Informatics is the master thesis. I quickly found a interesting topic: Improving the collaboration using a multitouch system (aka Microsoft Surface) using with C#, WCF, XAML
As part of Microsoft Student Partner organisation (MSP), I am trying my best to EVANGELIZE: promote Microsoft technologies through workshops, presentations, representing the organisation in front of the students.
Today is a great day - the third version of ASP .Net MVC framework was released! I like this trend in Microsoft's approach, providing free tools to quickly and cheaply start development, increasing your productivity and making you think about a quick Return of Investment - only your time is involved.
