-    Pre-attentive cues in user interfaces
-    =====================================
-
-    Employing the effortless and parallel pre-attentive
-    processes of human vision can yield substantial improvements 
-    in the usability of computer interfaces. We show several
-    examples in our prototype interfaces: Fillets --- smoothing 
-    of sharp angles at the joints --- make the connections in a 
-    graph-like diagram easily discriminable. Unique background 
-    textures help the user instantly identify a familiar 
-    document, even if only a fragment is seen. Tearing instead 
-    of rectangularly clipped viewports makes document fragments 
-    comprehensible at a glance.
-    
-    Lego controllers
-    ================
-
-    New user interfaces could benefit from customized controllers,
-    but it is expensive to design and produce for a specific 
-    purpose unless standard, mass-produced parts can be used.
-    We show how controllers can be built from a standard mouse
-    and Lego bricks, allowing anyone to reproduce the design
-    without any tools and to easily prototype new designs.

+    Storm
+    =====
+
+    STORage Module is a library for storing and retrieving data as
+    immutable byte sequences, which are identified by cryptographic
+    content hashes. This allows for addressing two important issues 
+    of data mobility: dangling links and version management.
+
+    Dangling link is a known problem in contemporary hypertext networks, 
+    ultimately caused by the links referring to a specific location.
+    In Storm, we assume that location-independent identifiers are resolvable 
+    in an efficient and trusty manner, thus causing links not to dangle.
+
+    Version management ensures that a user can move and work fluently
+    between different versions of a resource. This includes editing
+    the current version, merging with another version, forking, and reverting
+    to older versions.

+    Fenfire and P2P
+    ===============
+    
+    We use Peer-to-Peer technologies to build a location transparent,
+    hyperstructured desktop environment. We believe that the properties
+    of Peer-to-Peer technology, such as the ad hoc connectivity and
+    the lack of central authority, are prerequisites while mobilizing
+    the Fenfire system. We wish to use globally unique, semantic-free
+    references for locating data in Peer-to-Peer environment. Our future
+    work includes a implmentation of Fenfire Peer-to-Peer prototype.
