I am a member of a group of postgraduate students at the University of Newcastle-upon-Tyne researching in the area of WMS. We are looking at the ergonomic aspects with a view to implementing a generic system across a wide range of workstations. Some combinations examined so far are: Sun with Suntools, X (with xnwm, uwm, xwm) Xerox with Viewpoint, XDE, Bridge, Interlisp Perq with PNX-WMS, Flex Whitechapel with Oriel Blit with Rob Pike's window manager We are interested to hear from anyone who knows of comparative studies in this field, possibly including evaluation criteria, as our literature search has been disappointing in this regard. If you are interested in our work and would like a copy of our final report, or have any comments, please contact me through e-mail at the address below. We would be grateful for any information received, and will summarise to comp.windows.x.
