User-Centred Design and Abstract Prototypes
نویسندگان
چکیده
A user-centred design approach in combination with a tool-supported development of abstract prototypes is proposed. Based on task, object and user models an editor for modelling the navigation structure of a user interface as a dialogue graph is demonstrated. This editor is based on the XIML technology and allows simulations considering temporal relations between task and design decisions for the dialogue graph.

From Abstraction to Realization: Canonical Abstract Prototypes for User Interface Design REVISED
Canonical abstract prototypes are an innovative means for specifying and exploring visual and interaction design ideas. Intermediate between abstract task models and realistic or representational prototypes, canonical abstract prototypes provide designers with a standardized vocabulary for expre ssing visual and interaction designs independent of details of appearance and behavior. This common ...
متن کاملInteractive Maps on Mobile, Location-based Systems: Design Solutions and Usability Testing
This paper describes the interface conception for a mobile, location-based map application, and the user-centred design approach used to validate design principles. We suggests design guidelines for interactive maps that were used for prototypes for a mobile fair guide. Abstract and simplified visualizations were combined with interactive linking to textual information, especially hidden labels...
متن کاملCanonical Abstract Prototypes for Abstract Visual and Interaction
Abstract user interface prototypes offer designers a form of representation for specification and exploration of visual and interaction design ideas that is intermediate between abstract task models and realistic or representational prototypes. Canonical Abstract Prototypes are an extension to usage -centered design that provides a formal vocabulary for expressing visual and interaction designs...
متن کاملExperiences with Developing a User-Centered Digital Library
The purpose of this study was to find out whether users should be involved in the design stage of a Digital Library (DL). Hence an experiment has been undertaken to find out the level of user satisfaction with a user-centred DL (UDL) compared to a non-user-centred DL (NDL). In this experiment, the UDL prototype has been compared with the NDL prototype. The two prototypes were then evaluated by ...
متن کاملA Case Study of User-Centred Design in Four Swiss RUP Projects
We analysed four Rational Unified Process (RUP) projects in Switzerland that identified themselves as following a user-centred approach. Grounded theory served for analysis of 12 interviews with software developers, project managers, and UI specialists. For each professional group we analysed their work context, motivations, work practices, and strategies used to overcome the obstacles to user-...
