Abstract

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 1st International Conference on Distributed, Ambient and Pervasive Interactions, DAPI 2013, held as part of the 15th International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction, HCII 2013, held in Las Vegas, USA in July 2013, jointly with 12 other thematically similar conferences. Emerging 'intelligent' or 'smart' environments react in an attentive, adaptive, and active (sometimes proactive) way to the presence and activities of humans and objects in order to provide intelligent/smart services to the inhabitants of these environments. Related technologies integrate sensing capabilities, processing power, reasoning mechanisms, networking facilities, applications and services, digital content, and actuating capabilities distributed in the surrounding environment. While a wide variety of different technologies is involved, the underlying goal is to either entirely hide their presence from users or to smoothly integrate within the surrounding context as enhanced environment artifacts rather than as technological gadgets. This way, the computing-oriented connotation of technology essentially fades-out or even disappears in the environment, providing seamless and unobtrusive interaction paradigms. The total of 54 contributions was carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in the DAPI proceedings. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: natural interaction; context-awareness in smart and intelligent environments; design and evaluation of smart and intelligent environments; smart cities; multi-user, group and collaborative interaction; smart everyday living and working environments.
