      <title>Pressing: Smooth Isosurfaces with Flats from Binary Grids</title>

      <description>Title: Pressing: Smooth Isosurfaces with Flats from Binary Grids
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Authors: Chica, Antonio; Williams, Jason; Andujar, Carlos; Brunet, Pere; Navazo, Isabel; Rossignac, Jaroslaw R.; Vinacua, Alvar
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Abstract: We explore the automatic recovery of solids from their binary volumetric discretizations. In particular, we propose&#xD;
an approach, called Pressing, for smoothing isosurfaces extracted from binary volumes while recovering their&#xD;
large planar regions (flats). Pressing yields a surface that is guaranteed to contain the samples of the volume&#xD;
classified as interior and exclude those classified as exterior. It uses global optimization to identify flats and&#xD;
constrained bilaplacian smoothing to eliminate sharp features and high-frequencies from the rest of the isosurface.&#xD;
It recovers sharp edges between flat regions and between flat and smooth regions. Hence, the resulting isosurface&#xD;
is usually a very accurate approximation of the original solid. Furthermore, the segmentation of the isosurface&#xD;
into flat and curved faces and the sharp/smooth labelling of their edges may be valuable for shape recognition,&#xD;
simplification, compression, and various reverse engineering and manufacturing applications.</description>

      <title>inSpace: Co-Designing the Physical and Digital Environment to Support Workplace Collaboration</title>

      <description>Title: inSpace: Co-Designing the Physical and Digital Environment to Support Workplace Collaboration
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Authors: Voida, Stephen; McKeon, Matt; Le Dantec, Christopher; Forslund, C.; Verma, Puja; McMillan, B.; Bunde-Pedersen, J.; Edwards, Keith; Mynatt, Elizabeth D.; Mazalek, Ali
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Abstract: In this paper, we unpack three themes for the multidisciplinary codesign&#xD;
of a physical and digital meeting space environment in supporting&#xD;
collaboration: that social practices should dictate design, the importance of&#xD;
supporting fluidity, and the need for technological artifacts to have a social&#xD;
voice. We describe a prototype meeting space named inSpace that explores how&#xD;
design grounded in these themes can create a user-driven, information-rich&#xD;
environment supporting a variety of meeting types. Our current space includes a&#xD;
table with integrated sensing and ambient feedback, a shared wall display that&#xD;
supports multiple concurrent users, and a collection of storage and&#xD;
infrastructure services for communication, and that also can automatically&#xD;
capture traces of how artifacts are used in the space.</description>
