`
`
`Principal investigator for the Natural Programming Project, funded by NSF and industry, which is creating new
`programming languages, environments and tools that are easier to learn, more effective, and less error prone. We
`are taking a human-centered approach, first studying how people perform their tasks and then designing
`languages and environments around people's natural tendencies. We focus on all kinds of programming,
`including professional programmers, novice programmers who are trying to learn to be experts, and end user
`programmers, who program to support other jobs or activities.
`
`Principal investigator for the Pebbles PDA project, funded by DARPA, NSF, SEI and industry, which is
`investigating the use of hand-held computers like Android smartphones, Pocket PC/Windows CE and PalmOS
`devices synchronously with PCs. By "synchronously," we mean that one or more hand-helds will be connected
`to a computer or computerized device, so that the hand-helds will be in continuous two-way communication
`with the main computer and with each other.
`
`Principal investigator for the Silver Project, funded as part of the second Digital Libraries Initiative, which
`investigated authoring with digital video.

`

`Principal investigator for the User Interface Software Project, funded by DARPA and industry, which developed
`sophisticated user interface development environments to help build graphical user interfaces. Garnet, our earlier
`system, is in Lisp, and introduced encapsulating mouse and keyboard behaviors into abstract "interactors."
`Amulet, the second system, is in C++ and runs on Unix, Windows NT and 95, and Macintosh. Amulet is
`downloaded about 10,000 times a year, and incorporates novel object, constraint, input, output, undo, command
`and animation models to provide high-level support for highly-interactive, multi-media applications for one or
`multiple users. An important focus is high-level graphical editors which allow the user interface designer to
`draw all graphical aspects of user interfaces, and to demonstrate most of the behavior of the user interface.
`
`Principal investigator for the Demonstrational Interfaces project, funded by NSF and industry. In a
`"demonstrational interface," the user gives an example of how the system should operate, and the system
`automatically generalizes from the example to produce a parameterized procedure. For instance, in the
`Macintosh Finder, the user might move "foo.PS" and then "bar.PS" to the trash can. The system might notice
`that a similar operation was performed twice and automatically create a procedure to delete all the "*.PS" files.
`We are developing a demonstrational visual shell (iconic desktop), a text formatter, an editor for business charts,
`an editor for dynamic world-wide-web pages, and an architecture for programs that support demonstrational
`interfaces.
`
`MacGnome project (1987-1988): designed a system that creates visualizations for Pascal data structures.
