  1. “Computing a Multimedia Representation for Documents Given Time and Display Constraints,” B. Erol, K. Berkner, S. Joshi. and J. J. Hull. Development of the first technique that automatically converts static documents into multimedia summaries that are easily viewed on small cell phone displays. IEEE Int. Conf. on Multimedia and Expo (ICME), Toronto, Canada, pp. 2133-2136, July 9-12, 2006. Winner of the Conference Best Paper Award.
  2. "Refocusing Multimedia Research on Short Clips," P.E. Hart. K. Piersol, and J. J. Hull. IEEE Multimedia, v. 12, no. 3., pp. 8-13, July-Sept., 2005.
  3. “Toward Zero-Effort Personal Document Management,” J.J. Hull and P.E. Hart. Development and deployment of the first practical document-handling system that autonomously saves a digital copy of every document passed to it, and makes the saved documents searchable without using key words or file names. This concept of “unconscious capture” was subsequently designed into the hardware of Ricoh’s digital photocopiers. IEEE Computer, v. 34, no. 3, pp. 30-35, March 2001.
  4. "Office Blogger," B. Erol and J. J. Hull, ACM Multimedia, Singapore, pp. 383-386, Nov. 6-11, 2005.
  5. "Video Paper: A Paper-Based Interface for Skimming and Watching Video," J. Graham and J. J. Hull, IEEE Int. Conf. on Consumer Electronics, Los Angeles, June 16-18, 2002.
  6. "Information technology – JPEG 2000 image coding system: Core coding system," ISO/IEC 15444-1:2004 | ITU-T Rec. T.800, www.iso.org , 23 September 2004.
  7. “A Paper-based Interface for Video Browsing and Retrieval,” J. Graham and J. J. Hull. Invention of the first system for printing multimedia streams and navigation tools on plain paper, from the paper representation to any point in the stream. IEEE Int. Conf. on Multimedia and Expo (ICME), Baltimore, MD, July 6-9, 2003.
  8. “The Reader's Helper: A Personalized Document Reading Environment,” J. Graham. A new document reading environment is introduced called the Reader’s Helper™, which supports the reading of electronic and paper documents. ACM SIGCHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI'99), Pittsburg, PA, May 1999.
  9. "The Infinite Memory Multifunction Machine (IM3)," J. J. Hull and P. E. Hart. Development and deployment of the first practical document-handling system that autonomously saves a digital copy of every document passed to it, and makes the saved documents searchable without using key words or file names. This concept of “unconscious capture” was subsequently designed into the hardware of Ricoh’s digital photocopiers. Proc. Third Int. Workshop on Document Analysis Systems, Nagano, Japan, Nov. 4-6, 1998, pp 49-58.
  10. "Query-Free Information Retrieval," P. E. Hart and J. Graham. Development of the first deployed software system that offers relevant advice to user without explicit request. IEEE Expert, Vol. 12 No. 5, (Sept./Oct. 1997), pp 32–37.
  11. "CREW: Compression with Reversible Embedded Wavelets," A. Zandi, J. Allen, E. Schwartz, M. Boliek. Invention of the wavelet-based image compression technology that led directly to the ISO JPEG-2000 standard. Data Compression Conference, Snowbird, Utah, March 1995.
