The goal of this research is to support the cognitive process of a student in taking notes while looking at the front (an instructor, screen, etc.) and listering to the instructor in a real-time class lecture. We have identified three system requirements for the goal:(1)to decrease cognitive overhead of recording notes of visual information (slides and white boards) by video-recording the lecture, (2)to help the students maintain the current context while taking notes, and (3)to support hand-writing input. We have been building a prototype system NOSTIS (a NOte-taking Support within a TIme-constrained Situation), which allows the user to capture video frames of the lecture, and to annotate captured frame images by hand-writing.

The goal of our research is to develop computer systems that support designers' collective creativity; such systems support individual creative aspects in design through the use of representations created by others in the community. We have developed two systems, IAM-eMMa and EVIDII, that both aim at supporting designers in finding visual images that would be useful for their creative design tasks. By observing designers interacting with the two systems, we have identified three concepts that are important for designing systems that support collective creativity.
