Abstract

This talk describes and demonstrates a system for building interactive cartoons of computer programs. The system augments the expressive power of Web pages for publishing passive multimedia information with a full-fledged interactive algorithm animation system. Moreover, by exploiting the connectivity of the Web, system is particularly well-suited for use in an "Electronic Classroom."

Joint work with Marc Najork, DEC Systems Research Center, and Roope Raisamo, University of Tampere, Finland.
