METHOD OF ENABLING CONFERENCING USING PRINTED FORMS
First Claim
1. A method of enabling conferencing using printed forms, the method comprising the steps of:
- receiving, in a computer system, indicating data generated by a sensing device through interaction with conference information and first coded tags printed on a first form, the computer system having a form description associated with an identity of the first form, each first tag encoding data on the first form identity and the location of that first tag on the first form, the indicating data including data on the first form identity and a position of the sensing device relative to the first tags sensed by the sensing device;
determining, in the computer system and from the indicating data and digital description, a parameter relating to the conference information; and
outputting, from the computer system, a second form with second coded tags and information on the parameter and a hierarchial tree of form versions, the computer system producing the hierarchical tree of form versions by associating an identity of the second form with said form description by determining whether an identity of any other second form is associated with said form description, each second tag encoding data on the second form identity and the location of that second tag on the second form.

Abstract
A method of enabling conferencing using printed forms includes, in a computer system, receiving indicating data generated by a sensing device through interaction with conference information and coded tags printed on a first form, determining a parameter relating to the conference information and outputting a second form with coded tags and information on the parameter and a form version hierarchial tree. Each tag encodes an identity of, and the location of that tag on, the respective form. The indicating data includes the first form'"'"'s identity and a sensing device position relative to the tags sensed on the first form. The computer system has a form description associated with the first form'"'"'s identity and produces the hierarchical tree by associating the second form'"'"'s identity with the form description by determining whether any other form is associated therewith. The parameter is determined from the indicating data and digital description.
