A visual adaptive interface to file systems
Proceedings of the working conference on Advanced visual interfaces, 2004•dl.acm.org
In this paper we present our experience in building a visual flle manager, VennFS 2, that
offers to users an adaptive interface toward access to files. Our file manager was originally
designed to overcome some of limitations of hierarchical file systems, since it allows users to
categorize files in such a way that files may belong multiple categories at once. Based on
the past history of the files that were opened and modified by the user, VennFS 2 graphically
presents the user a small number of choices of the next file the user will modify. Some …

Some preliminary testing with interesting hints are also reported.
