Abstract

A method for user-based application grouping in a table-top multi-user environment where a plurality of users execute applications individually comprises collecting geometric information of each window of a plurality of applications displayed on a table-top display—each window of the plurality of applications has different geometric information according to the position at which each user uses the table-top display; and processing geometric information of each window of the plurality of applications through a clustering algorithm processing unit by using the collected geometric information as a criterion for classifying the plurality of applications and grouping the processed geometric information for each user. Through grouping of applications currently executed in a table-top environment for each user, a user-specific special function such as a user-specific application history may be provided.
