title: Folder Window as Canvas creator: Reißig, Malte creator: Melcher, Matthias subject: ddc-004 subject: 004 Data processing Computer science description: In this paper we argue that already minimal additions to the operating system’s folder window, are able to significantly enhance the quality of the users’ Personal Knowledge Management, if they are leaning towards a certain style of cognitive and working preferences that embraces associations or connections among the concepts, documents, or “topics”. Drawing upon empirical experiences with a prototypical lightweight user interface, we propose a filebrowser implementation as well as a subsequent user study involving people who expose preferences of spatial visualizers. publisher: Logos-Verlag contributor: Schroeder, Ulrik date: 2010 type: Book Section type: info:eu-repo/semantics/bookPart type: NonPeerReviewed format: application/pdf identifier: https://archiv.ub.uni-heidelberg.de/volltextserverhttps://archiv.ub.uni-heidelberg.de/volltextserver/10962/1/foldercanvas.pdf identifier: DOI:10.11588/heidok.00010962 identifier: urn:nbn:de:bsz:16-opus-109627 identifier: Reißig, Malte ; Melcher, Matthias (2010) Folder Window as Canvas.
