`BACKGROUND AND EXPERIENCE
`
`3.
`
`In 1991, I earned a Ph.D. in Computing Science from the University
`
`of Glasgow, Scotland, where I researched in the area of multimedia information
`
`retrieval. Between approximately 1991 and 1993, I was a lecturer in Computing
`
`Science at the University of Glasgow. In 1994, I was a lecturer in Computing and
`
`Information Systems at the University of Paisley, Scotland. From 1994 to 1999, I
`
`was again a lecturer in Computing Science at the University of Glasgow.
`
`4.
`
`From July 1999 to July 2000, I was a senior researcher at the Risø
`
`National Laboratory in Roskilde, Denmark, where I researched in the area of
`
`human-machine interaction.

`
`Since 2000, I have been a senior lecturer at the University of
`
`Strathclyde in Glasgow, Scotland. My teaching is mainly related to human
`
`computer interaction and internet programming technologies.
`

`
`experience is attached to this Declaration as Attachment A.
`
`II. MOBILEHCI CONFERENCES AND WORKSHOPS
`
`7.
`
`Since 1998, I have been an active participant in The International
`
`Conference Series on Human Computer Interaction with Mobile Devices and
`
`Services (“MobileHCI”). MobileHCI conferences are open to members of the
`
`public to attend, participate, and share ideas related to interaction with mobile
`
`devices. The modern MobileHCI conferences began as small workshops attached
`
`to the Interact series of conferences on human-computer interaction.
`
`8.
`
`In 1998, along with colleagues named Chris Johnson and Stephen
`
`Brewster, I organized the first Workshop on Human Computer Interaction with
`
`Mobile Devices (the “1998 Workshop”), which started the MobileHCI conference
`
`series. We arranged the 1998 Workshop because mobile devices were growing in
`
`popularity and functionality and because they offered exciting new ways to interact
`
`with technology and exciting opportunities for human computer interaction (HCI).
`
`The 1998 Workshop was largely academic, but the 1998 Workshop and subsequent

`
`workshops and MobileHCI conferences also involved industry representatives,
`
`such as Nokia, Ericsson, Siemens, Philips, Microsoft, LG, Google and Yahoo.
`
`9.
`
`Chris Johnson, Stephen Brewster and I contacted members of the
`
`human computer interaction and mobile device industry to request research
`
`contributions for the 1998 Workshop, which took place in Glasgow in May 1998.
`
`10. The following year, in 1999, Stephen Brewster and I contacted
`
`participants from the 1998 Workshop and others in the general academic and
`
`industrial research committees to seek submissions for another workshop, which
`
`took place in August 1999 in Edinburgh, Scotland (“the 1999 Workshop”). The
`
`1999 Workshop was a one-day workshop as part of the Interact ‘99 Conference.
`
`11.
`
`In the weeks prior to the 1999 Workshop, we created a publicly
`
`accessible webpage (“the 1999 Webpage”), hosted by the University of Glasgow,
`
`to publicise the workshop and call for research contributions.
`
`12. We encouraged prospective attendees to the 1999 Workshop to access
`
`the 1999 Webpage prior to the 1999 Workshop to download copies of the research
`
`contributions to be discussed at the 1999 Workshop. The 1999 Webpage was the
`
`primary way attendees accessed the research contributions prior to the 1999
`
`Workshop.

`IN SUPPORT OF PETITION FOR INTER PARTES REVIEW
`OF U.S. PATENT NO. 7,787,904 B2
`
`
`13. The 1999 Webpage also gave members of the general public access to
`
`papers and posters to be discussed at the 1999 Workshop.
`
`14. The 1999 Webpage still exists today, at
`
`http://www.dcs.gla.ac.uk/mobile99/.
`
`15. Attachment B to this Declaration is a true and correct representation
`
`of the content of the 1999 Webpage as it existed on September 1, 1999, now
`
`viewed from the Internet Archive located at www.archive.org at
`
`http://web.archive.org/web/19990901173557/http://www.dcs.gla.ac.uk/mobile99/.
`
`16. The 1999 Webpage had hyperlinks to Postscript files of the papers
`
`and posters to be presented at the 1999 Workshop. Postscript was a common
`
`document format known to the public and members of industry. In 1999, visitors
`
`to the 1999 Webpage clicked on hyperlinks to the papers and posters to retrieve the
`
`Postscript files and view the papers and posters.
`
`17. At some point after 1999, we updated the hyperlinks to the posters
`
`and papers on the 1999 Webpage to provide .pdf files of each document, rather
`
`than the now less used Postscript versions. The site retained the original 1999
`
`PostScript submissions within two compressed (zip) archives.
`
`18. Attendance at Interact ‘99 and the 1999 Workshop was open to the
`
`public, subject to registration through the Interact ‘99 conference, which itself was

`
`open to the public and advertised in technical literature and web sites pertaining to
`
`the general topic of the conference. Access to the 1999 Webpage was advertised to
`
`the 1999 Workshop attendees and through the publicity material for Interact ‘99.
`
`The 1999 Webpage was openly available to members of the public.
`
`III. “A personal digital assistant as an advanced remote control for
`
`audio/video equipment” by De Vet, J. and Buil, V.
`
`19. One of the submissions for the 1999 Workshop was entitled “A
`
`personal digital assistant as an advanced remote control for audio/video
`
`equipment,” by John de Vet and Vincent Buil of Philips Research (“the de Vet
`
`article”).
`
`20.
`
`I received the de Vet article in 1999 and published it to the 1999
`
`Webpage. Shortly thereafter, in 1999, members of the public could access the de
`
`Vet article via the 1999 Webpage in Attachment B:
`
`http://www.dcs.gla.ac.uk/mobile99/.
`
`21. As seen on Attachment B, visitors could access the de Vet article
`
`using a hyperlink having the text of the article’s title. In fact, at least some visitors
`
`to the 1999 Webpage accessed the de Vet article, including myself, in 1999.
`
`22. Attendees of the 1999 Workshop viewed the de Vet article and
`
`discussed its contents as it was presented as a poster at the workshop.

`I was under no obligation to maintain the de Vet article as
`
`confidential.
`
`24. Petitioner’s counsel provided me with a copy of the de Vet article,
`
`which is attached to this Declaration as Attachment C.
`
`25. The de Vet article in Attachment C is a true and correct copy of the de
`
`Vet article that was publicly available on the 1999 Webpage in 1999 and accessed
`
`by members of the public shortly thereafter in 1999.

`
`Understanding contextual interactions to design navigational context-
`aware applications
`MobileHCI
`2002
`Context-aware technology has stimulated rigorous research into novel ways to support people in a
`wide range of tasks and situations. However, the effectiveness of these technologies will ultimately
`be dependent on the extent to which contextual interactions are understood and accounted for in
`their design. This study involved an investigation of contextual interactions required for route
`navigation. The purpose was to illustrate the heterogeneous nature of humans in interaction with
`their environmental context. Participants were interviewed to determine how each interacts with or
`use objects/information in the environment in which to navigate/orientate. Results revealed that
`people vary individually and collectively. Usability implications for the design of navigational context-
`aware applications are identified and discussed.

`A Pathway to Independence: wayfinding systems which adapt to a visually
`impaired person's context
`IEE Symposium on Assistive Technologies
`2003
`Despite an increased amount of technologies and systems designed to address the navigational
`requirements of the visually impaired community of approximately 7.4 million in Europe, current
`research has failed to sufficiently address the human issues associated to their design and use. As
`more types of sensing technologies are developed to facilitate visually impaired travellers for
`different navigational purposes (local vs. distant and indoor vs. outdoor), an effective process of
`synchronisation is required. This synchronisation is represented through context-aware computing,
`which allows contextual information to not just be sensed (like most current wayfinding systems),
`but also adapted, discovered and augmented. In this paper, three user studies concerning the
`suitability of different types of navigational information for visually impaired and sighted people are
`described. For such systems to be effective, human cognitive maps, models and intentions need to
`be the focus of further research, in order to provide information that is tailored to a user’s task,
`situation or environment. Methodologies aimed at establishing these issues need to be
`demonstrated through a multidisciplinary framework.

`Both applications are centred around Starfield displays on palmtop computers – this provides fast,
`dynamic access to information on a small platform. The paper describes the applications focussing
`on this novel palmtop information access method and on the user-profiling aspect of the CityGuide,
`where restaurants are recommended to users based on both the match of restaurant type to the
`users’ observed previous interactions and the rating given by reviewers with similar observed
`preferences.

`This paper presents an initial study into the viability of text entry on a watch face using four
`alphabetic buttons and a central space key. The study includes a technical evaluation of likely error
`rates using a large text corpus and user studies on palmtop emulated mobile phone and watch. The
`results, though in favour of the phone pad, are encouraging and show such a method is feasible.

`
`Towards a Multidisciplinary Model of Context to Support Context-Aware
`Computing
`Journal of Human-Computer Interaction
`2005
`Capturing, defining, and modeling the essence of context are challenging, compelling, and
`prominent issues for interdisciplinary research and discussion. The roots of its emergence lie in the
`inconsistencies and ambivalent definitions across and within different research specializations (e.g.,
`philosophy, psychology, pragmatics, linguistics, computer science, and artificial intelligence). Within
`the area of computer science, the advent of mobile context-aware computing has stimulated broad
`and contrasting interpretations due to the shift from traditional static desktop computing to
`heterogeneous mobile environments. This transition poses many challenging, complex, and largely
`unanswered research issues relating to contextual interactions and usability. To address those
`issues, many researchers strongly encourage a multidisciplinary approach. The primary aim of this
`article is to review and unify theories of context within linguistics, computer science, and
`psychology. Summary models within each discipline are used to propose an outline and detailed
`multidisciplinary model of context involving (a) the differentiation of focal and contextual aspects of
`the user and application’s world, (b) the separation of meaningful and incidental dimensions, and (c)
`important user and application processes. The models provide an important foundation in which
`complex mobile scenarios can be conceptualized and key human and social issues can be
`identified. The models were then applied to different applications of context-aware computing
`involving user communities and mobile tourist guides. The authors’ future work involves developing
`a user-centered multidisciplinary design framework (based on their proposed models). This will be
`used to design a large-scale user study investigating the usability issues of a context-aware mobile
`computing navigation aid for visually impaired people.

`network access, this paper discusses the possibility for contextual information extracted from
`electronic calendars to be used as sources for Internet content predictive retrieval (pre-caching).
`Our results show that calendar based contextual information is useful for this purpose and that

`Personal and Ubiquitous Computing
`2005
`In recent years, there has been an escalation of orientation and way finding technologies and
`systems for visually impaired people. These technological advancements, however, have not been
`matched by a suitable investigation of human computer interaction (e.g. designing navigation aids
`for people who form different cognitive maps for navigation). The aim of this study was to investigate
`whether a group of sighted participants and a group of visually impaired participants experience a
`difference in mental and physical demands when given two different sets of verbal instructions
`directing them to four landmarks. The content of the first set of instructions was proportioned to
`route descriptions derived from sighted people, and the second set proportioned to descriptions
`derived from visually impaired people. The time taken to reach landmarks and the number of
`deviations provided the objective assessment and a NASA–Task Load Index questionnaire provided
`an indication of participants subjective perception of workload. The results revealed that instructions
`formed from visually impaired people resulted in a lower weighted workload score, less minor
`deviations, and quicker times for visually impaired participants. In contrast, these instructions were
`found to cause a higher weighted workload score for sighted participants. The results are discussed
`in relation to the issue of personalisation of mobile context-aware systems for visually impaired
`people.

`
`A calendar based Internet content pre-caching agent for small computing
`devices
`Personal and Ubiquitous Computing
`2007
`We described in earlier publications the principles of a system where internet content would be pre-
`cached, based on contextual information obtained from a user’s electronic calendar. The model for
`such a system envisioned a set of cooperating agents, distributed on a user’s desktop and mobile
`device, which would be responsible for making decisions on the context and preferences of the
`user, and downloading the relevant internet content through a land-based broadband connection
`and storing it on the mobile device. This paper presents and discusses established pre-caching
`techniques and their suitability for use on mobile information access scenarios. It proceeds in
`describing the implementation details of an alternative approach, a calendar based pre-caching
`system and presents the findings of tests that were made with human subjects on such a system.

`Investigating five key predictive text entry with combined distance and

`Personal and Ubiquitous Computing

`This paper investigates text entry on mobile devices using only five-key. Primarily to support text
`entry on smaller devices than mobile phones, this method can also be used to maximise screen
`space on mobile phones. Reported combined Fitt's law and keystroke modelling predicts similar
`performance with bigram prediction using a five-key keypad as currently achieved on standard
`mobile phones using unigram prediction. User studies reported here show similar user performance
`on five-key pads as found elsewhere for novice nine-key pad users.

`no information about the snow and weather conditions on each run. All this information is available
`at resorts, usually on notice boards or screens at central meeting points. The visualisation and
`personalisation approaches presented here combine this information and a map overview on a
`mobile phone screen. Initial trials showed significantly better performance for some tasks on the
`mobile condition (both in terms of accuracy and time), with no clear result for other tasks

`Dynamic Positioning Systems – Usability and Interaction
`NordiCHI
`2008
`This paper describes the first steps of a research project directed towards human computer
`interaction (HCI) within the maritime environment and on maritime equipment. The focus is at this
`stage mainly on interaction with Dynamic Positioning Systems (DP) and how new interaction styles
`can be introduced to make the interaction more efficient and less faulty in both standard operations
`and in safety-critical situations. The initial experiment looks into how a DP operator can operate a
`DP system by using bi-manual interaction/multi-touch combined with hand-gestures to create a new
`type of user-experience. The aim for this research is to investigate which gestures feel natural to the
`DP operator and how/if they can be implemented into a real-life DP system.

`Text Entry
`ISR Handbook of Research on User Interface Design and Evaluation for Mobile Technology
`2008
`Text entry on mobile devices (e.g. phones and PDAs) has been a research challenge since devices
`shrank below laptop size: mobile devices are simply too small to have a traditional full-size
`keyboard. There has been a profusion of research into text entry techniques for smaller keyboards
`and stylus input: some of which have become mainstream, while others have not lived up to early
`expectations. This chapter will review the range of input techniques together with evaluations that
`have taken place to assess their validity: from theoretical modelling through to formal usability
`experiments. Finally, the chapter will discuss criteria for acceptance of new techniques and how
`market perceptions can overrule laboratory successes.

`
`Paper Rejected (p>0.05): An introduction to the debate on appropriateness
`of null-hypothesis testing
`International Journal of Mobile Human Computer Interaction
`2009
`Null-hypothesis statistical testing has been seriously criticised in other domains, to the extent of
`some advocating a complete ban on publishing p-values. This short position paper aims to introduce
`the argument to the mobile-HCI research community, who make extensive use of the controversial
`testing methods.

`Tactile Feedback for Predictive Text Entry
`ACM CHI
`2009
`Predictive text entry provides a fast way to enter text on phones and other small devices. Early work
`on predictive text entry highlighted that the reaction time for checking the screen dominates text
`entry times. Improving accuracy of predictions brings a downside: as prediction gets better, users
`will drop the slow operation of checking the screen and will thus miss prediction errors and system
`feedback/suggestions. In this note, we present an experiment into the use of vibration to alert the
`user when word completion is likely to aid them, using a dynamic approach based on their current
`typing speed, and when there are no dictionary matches to their entry. Results show significantly

`Pickup Usability Dominates
`International Journal of Mobile Human Computer Interaction
`2009
`Text entry on mobile devices (e.g. phones and PDAs) has been a research challenge since devices
`shrank below laptop size: mobile devices are simply too small to have a traditional full-size
`keyboard. There has been a profusion of research into text entry techniques for smaller keyboards

`review the range of input techniques for mobiles, together with evaluations that have taken place to
`assess their validity: from theoretical modelling through to formal usability experiments. We also
`report initial results on iPhone text entry speed.
