Personalized Ubiquitous Data Collection and Intervention as Interactive Multimedia Documents

The Experience Sampling Method (ESM) has been proposed as a method for collecting data about people's experiences in their everyday and natural environments. ESM-based systems thier limited authoring for interactive documents designed to collect text-based responses offered as answers to text-based questions, and integrated with the non-intrusive data collection from sensors. From a document engineering perspective, ESM brings new requirements with respect to the authoring of non-trivial interaction and navigation work flow, in particular when multiple media and collaborative tasks are concerned. Tackling existing challenges, we modeled the Experience Sampling and Programmed Intervention Method (ES-PIM) by combining ESM, individualized teaching procedures and ubiquitous computing toward producing interactive personalized multimedia documents applied in data collection.
