Abstract
The classical strategy of multimodal interactions is to simultaneously utilise several modalities offered on a 'single' device. However, practical restrictions appear, especially in mobile communications, due to the limitations of device's interfaces and the continuously changing communication conditions. Taking multimodality out of this single-device scenario, this paper introduces a theoretical framework for dynamic Multi User Interfaces-Device Binding (MID-B). MID-B facilitates dynamic adaptation and customisation of physically distributed devices (and their user interfaces) into one 'virtual' multimodal environment, thus introducing ambient awareness into user interfaces. In MIDB, one device assumes the role of a "controller" which detects and binds the interfaces and modalities available on devices in the vicinity. After discovery, it binds these modalities to deliver the actual mobile service.
