Working with complex data, reaching decisions based on multiple information sources and sensemaking activities are increasingly executed by collaborative teams, which often consist of multiple experts. Examples are tumor board reviews, where doctors from different disciplines discuss patient data for optimal treatment planning, control rooms, where various incoming information streams are monitored and analyzed, or strategy and idea engineering meetings, where people analyze notes, sketches and other media to cooperatively generate ideas and objectives. In all these and other scenarios, people are co-located, collaborate with each other and make increasing use of digital support. Where previously whiteboards or single displays have been used, there is a growing number of setups with interactive large wall displays being the center of attention and team discussion. In addition, mobile personal devices, such as laptops, tablets or smartphones, and horizontal tabletop displays are being used in what has been termed a Multi-Display Environment (MDE). We expect such environments to be the dominate setup for computer-supported co-located collaboration in the future.In previous research, several technological solutions have been proposed for MDE as well as numerous interaction techniques, e.g., for transferring data between personal devices and large wall displays. However, a systematic and foundational understanding is still missing, how collaborative work is actually accomplished in such environments, how the transition between individual and group work happens, which roles users take over in MDE, how, where and when awareness information shall be displayed and how the space in front of and on the wall display is being used. The planned project aims at closing this gap and contributing important steps to a better understanding of collaborative interaction in Multi-Display-Environments.As a basis, we will first develop a design space of influencing dimensions for MDE collaboration. Next, to better understand interaction, movement, and proxemic patterns, we will develop a novel MDE analysis toolkit comprising complex visualization views, which allows for a semi-automated analysis of recorded behavior. By conducting several empirical studies, we will then identify behavior patterns of collaborating users, focussing our research on the usage of space, awareness aspects and dynamically changing roles. As a result, we will carefully develop design guidelines, which facilitate the design of future collaborative user interfaces in MDE. Therefore, our project will both make theoretical contributions as well as practical ones, since the visual analysis toolkit and the detailed study data will be made available to other researchers.

处理复杂的数据、基于多个信息源做出决策以及意义构建活动越来越多地由协作团队执行，这些团队通常由多个专家组成。例如肿瘤委员会审查，来自不同学科的医生讨论患者数据以制定最佳治疗计划，控制室，监控和分析各种传入的信息流，或战略和想法工程会议，人们分析笔记，草图和其他媒体以合作产生想法和目标。在所有这些和其他情况下，人们都在同一地点，相互协作，并越来越多地使用数字支持。在以前使用白板或单个显示器的地方，越来越多的设置使用交互式大型墙壁显示器作为注意力和团队讨论的中心。此外，诸如膝上型计算机、平板计算机或智能电话之类的移动的个人设备以及水平桌面显示器正被用于所谓的多显示器环境（MDE）中。我们期望这样的环境将成为未来计算机支持的协同定位协作的主导设置。在以前的研究中，已经为MDE提出了几种技术解决方案以及许多交互技术，例如，用于在个人设备和大型墙壁显示器之间传输数据。然而，仍然缺乏系统和基础的理解，如何在这样的环境中实际完成协作工作，个人和小组工作之间的过渡如何发生，用户在MDE中接管哪些角色，如何，何时何地显示意识信息，以及如何使用墙壁显示器前面和上面的空间。计划中的项目旨在缩小这一差距，并为更好地理解多显示环境中的协作交互提供重要步骤。作为基础，我们将首先开发一个影响MDE协作维度的设计空间。接下来，为了更好地理解交互，运动和运动模式，我们将开发一个新的MDE分析工具包，包括复杂的可视化视图，它允许对记录的行为进行半自动分析。通过进行一些实证研究，我们将确定合作用户的行为模式，集中我们的研究空间的使用，意识方面和动态变化的角色。因此，我们将仔细制定设计指南，以促进MDE中未来协作用户界面的设计。因此，我们的项目将作出理论贡献，以及实际的，因为可视化分析工具包和详细的研究数据将提供给其他研究人员。
