Abstract

In this paper, we describe the Txupito interactor model. Nowadays, application contents are accessible on a wide variety of devices such as laptops, tablets and smartphones but the heterogeneity of such devices does not help programmers to elaborate ambient interactive applications adapted to each device. Indeed, users do not interact in the same way on a tablet, a laptop or a smartphone. Furthermore the design of cooperative HCI (Human Computer Interface) remains a very complex task especially in an ambient and heterogeneous environment. In this paper, we propose a multimodal mobile interactor model, called Txupito, and a set of composition operators as a way to achieve interactions with hardware in a distributed and cooperative way.
