Abstract

In this paper a sketch-based prototype for dynamic domain comprehension tasks is presented. It enables knowledge workers to dynamically build up contact based knowledge landscapes and expert management using lightweight pen and paper-like interactions. The proposed prototype is operated on a tablet PC and recognizes objects, text and relations as digital entities for structured editing. The system utilizes sketch based template matching to recognize basic user created items. A flexible data model is used to translate the users' interactions into an ordered composite structure.
