Abstract
In order to make the task of animation creation easy, a different approach should be presented to the user. This thesis describes a new approach to animation creation. In this approach, the representation of animation is based on changes in state and not descriptions of the state. Users issue commands, which change the state of objects, to quickly and easily create new and interesting animations. The implemented system, called COMMANIMATION, also includes speech recognition technology, which allows for a more natural user interface. In addition to exploring animation, COMMANIMATION, a system that runs over three networked computers, provides a platform to study issues in pervasive computing, such as the use of multimodal inputs, error control, and error detection.
