Sustainable Knowledge Globe: A System for Supporting Content-oriented Conversation

摘要

The purpose of this paper is to support a sustainable conversation. From a view point of sustainability, it is important to manage huge conversation content such as transcripts, handouts, and slides. Our proposed system, called Sustainable Knowledge Globe (SKG), supports people to manage conversation content by using geographical arrangement, topological connection, contextual relation, and a zooming interface. By using SKG, a user can construct his content in the virtual landscape, and then explore the landscape along a conversational context. This paper describes the approaches to realize the concept above, and discusses the effectiveness of SKG based on experiments.
