Abstract

Geographic retrieval and visualization systems are essential to satisfy user's spatial information needs. However, the end users spatial information need is much more diverse and demanding in complex decision making scenarios such as: Persons moving to a new area need information about which place meets their individual demands. To analyze such requirements, we conducted a study with 18 users of different age group, knowledge, and expertise. In this paper we report the study methods, results, analysis and insights to build an end user-friendly geospatial decision support system.

Clustering-Based Visual Interfaces for Presentation of Web Search Results: An Empirical Investigation

The result of a typical web search is often overwhelming. It is very difficult to explore the textual listing of the resulting documents, which may be in the thousands. In order to improve the utility of the search experience, we explore presenting ...
Are separate interfaces inherently unequal?: an evaluation with blind users of the usability of two interfaces for a social networking platform
iConference '11: Proceedings of the 2011 iConference

With the increasing use of web-based applications in the workplace, it is imperative that all users can equally access those applications. It has been previously reported that blind users have problems accessing Facebook, but little empirical data on ...
Distributing User Interfaces
DUI '14: Proceedings of the 2014 Workshop on Distributed User Interfaces and Multimodal Interaction

The distribution of user interfaces is a reality. To represent this reality this paper presents a metamodel to characterize user interface distribution capabilities and states. This metamodel allows analyzers/designers to manipulate user interface ...
