User Interfaces [link]Paper  abstract   bibtex   
Multimedia would be meaningless if the applications would not use the media available at the interface for input and output. Media determine how and how well human-computer interaction is supported. On the first computers, either the user or the computer had to enter various addresses by setting switches or entering commands. The medium “text” was used to allow users and computers to interact. The only computer input was punched cards and paper was the only output form. And text was also the only means for screen displays. Later applications offered text menus, which facilitated inputs for the user, but they still had to adapt to the computer.
