Abstract:
In contrast to a traditional setting where users express queries against the database schema, we assert that the semantics of data can often be understood by viewing the data in the context of the user interface (UI) of the software tool used to enter the data. That is, we believe that users will understand the data in a database by seeing the labels, dropdown menus, tool tips, help text, control contents, and juxtaposition or arrangement of controls that are built in to the user interface. Our goal is to allow domain experts with little technical skill to understand and query data. In this dissertation, we present our GUi As View (Guava) framework and describe how we use forms-based UIs to generate a conceptual model that represents the information in the user interface. We then describe how we generate a query interface from the conceptual model. We characterize the resulting query language using a subset of relational algebra. Since most application developers want to craft a physical database to meet desired performance needs independent of the schema used by the user interface, we subsequently present a general-purpose schema mapping tool called a channel that can be configured by instantiating a sequence of discrete transformations. Each transformation is an encapsulation of a physical design decision or business logic process. The channel, once configured, automatically transforms queries from our query interface into queries that address the underlying physical database, similar to a view. The channel also transforms data updates, schema updates, and constraint definitions posed against the channel’s input schema into equivalent forms against the physical schema. We present formal definitions of each transformation and properties that must be true of transformations, and prove that our definitions respect the properties.

Abstract:
La communauté du génie logiciel porte depuis ses débuts une attention spéciale à la qualité et la fiabilité des logiciels. De nombreuses techniques de test logiciel ont été développées pour caractériser et détecter des erreurs dans les logiciels. Les modèles de fautes identifient et caractérisent les erreurs pouvant affecter les différentes parties d’un logiciel. D’autre part, les critères de qualité logiciel et leurs mesures permettent d’évaluer la qualité du code logiciel et de détecter en amont du code potentiellement sujet à erreur. Les techniques d’analyses statiques et dynamiques scrutent, respectivement, le logiciel à l’arrêt et à l’exécution pour trouver des erreurs ou réaliser des mesures de qualité. Dans cette thèse, nous prônons le fait que la même attention doit être portée sur la qualité et la fiabilité des interfaces utilisateurs (ou interface homme-machine, IHM), au sens génie logiciel du terme. Cette thèse propose donc deux contributions dans le domaine du test et de la maintenance d’interfaces utilisateur : 1. Classification et mutation des erreurs d’interfaces utilisateur. 2. Qualité du code des interfaces utilisateur. Nous proposons tout d’abord un modèle de fautes d’IHM. Ce modèle a été conçu à partir des concepts standards d’IHM pour identifier et classer les fautes d’IHM ; Au travers d’une étude empirique menée sur du code Java existant, nous avons montré l’existence d’une mauvaise pratique récurrente dans le développement du contrôleur d’IHM, objet qui transforme les évènements produits par l’interface utilisateur pour les transformer en actions. Nous caractérisons cette nouvelle mauvaise pratique que nous avons appelée Blob listener, en référence à la méthode Blob. Nous proposons également une analyse statique permettant d’identifier automatiquement la présence du Blob listener dans le code d’interface Java Swing
The software engineering community takes special attention to the quality and the reliability of software systems. Software testing techniques have been developed to find errors in code. Software quality criteria and measurement techniques have also been assessed to detect error-prone code. In this thesis, we argue that the same attention has to be investigated on the quality and reliability of GUIs, from a software engineering point of view. We specifically make two contributions on this topic. First, GUIs can be affected by errors stemming from development mistakes. The first contribution of this thesis is a fault model that identifies and classifies GUI faults. We show that GUI faults are diverse and imply different testing techniques to be detected. Second, like any code artifact GUI code should be analyzed statically to detect implementation defects and design smells. As for the second contribution, we focus on design smells that can affect GUIs specifically. We identify and characterize a new type of design smell, called Blob listener. It occurs when a GUI listener, that gathers events to treat and transform as commands, can produce more than one command. We propose a systematic static code analysis procedure that searches for Blob listener that we implement in a tool called InspectorGuidget. Experiments we conducted exhibits positive results regarding the ability of InspectorGuidget in detecting Blob listeners. To counteract the use of Blob listeners, we propose good coding practices regarding the development of GUI listeners

Gray, Geoffrey Richard. "An automated marking system for graphical user interfaces." Thesis, University of Nottingham, 2008. http://eprints.nottingham.ac.uk/12361/.

Full text
Abstract:
This research investigates the feasibility and effectiveness of assessing students programming solutions to Graphical User Interface exercises in an automated fashion. Automated marking systems ease the burden on the staff involved in running a course and allow students to get results and feedback in a timely fashion. Several automated marking systems exist but are currently unable to mark GUIs. The inherent complexity of GUIs and the need for aesthetic analysis has rendered GUIs beyond the scope of most marking systems. The marking approach described in this thesis implements a number of novel concepts. By exploiting language design properties such as the hierarchical relationship between components, it was possible to develop a framework capable of testing and marking students' GUI programs. Introspectively analysing the interface enables the marking system to obtain access to the intrinsic elements contained within the GUI. Once access has been obtained, the tests can be performed on the actual interface components themselves rather than a mere representation. GUI assessment is more than functional testing, aesthetics play a major role in the creation of an interface. Existing aesthetic metrics do not provide the analytical capabilities required due to their failure to include colour. The distractive effects that colours have were quantified and incorporated into the metrics. The results of the dynamic and aesthetic testing show that through the implementation of the novel components detailed, the creation of a GUI marking system is feasible and its marking both consistent and effective. The design enables the system to return results in a timely fashion and the effects that colour has can be seen in the results of basic aesthetic testing.

Abstract:
This thesis discusses guidelines for developers of Augmented User Interfaces that can be used by illiterate and semi-literate users. To discover how illiterate and semi-literate users intuitively understand interaction with a computer, a series of Wizard of Oz experiments were conducted. In the first Wizard of Oz study, users were presented with a standard desktop computer, fitted with a number of input devices to determine how they assume interaction should occur. This study found that the users preferred the use of speech and gestures which mirrored findings from other researchers. The study also found that users struggled to understand the tab metaphor which is used frequently in applications. From these findings, a localised culturally-relevant tab interface was developed to determine the feasibility of localised Graphical User Interface components. A second study was undertaken to compare the localised tab interface with the traditional tabbed interface. This study collected both quantitative and qualitative data from the participants. It found that users could interact with a localised tabbed interface faster and more accurately than with the traditional counterparts. More importantly, users stated that they intuitively understood the localised interface component, whereas they did not understand the traditional tab metaphor. These user studies have shown that the use of self-explanatory animations, video feedback, localised tabbed interface metaphors and voice output have a positive impact on enabling illiterate and semi-literate users to access information.

Abstract:
"In order to make large applications that manage multi-attribute data usable, they must have an effective user interface. Application data and data relationships must be displayed in a manner that is useful for a particular user while still following principles of user interface design. A User Interface Management System (UIMS) is an application independent data presentation system which isolates the interface portion of the application and can allow a high level of customization. A presentation description language can be used to control the UIMS and allow maximum flexibility. This thesis investigates a UIMS controlled by a language that allows a user to easily describe the application data and data relationships at a high level of abstraction. The UIMS uses this language to structure application data and augment it with properties. A rule-based system then uses the augmented data along with graphical design knowledge to determine the content, layout and details of the interface used to display the data. Finally, a graphical interface is generated to present the data. A system to provide this functionality was designed and implemented. Experiences with the system showed this approach to be valid and provided ideas for future work. "

Abstract:
This dissertation describes research in the application and evaluation of a Kohonen Self-Organizing Map (SOM) to the problem of classification of Electronic Brainstorming output. Electronic Brainstorming is one of the most productive tools in the Electronic Meeting System called GroupSystems. A major step in group problem solving involves the classification of Electronic Brainstorming output into a manageable list of concepts, topics, or issues that can be further evaluated by the group. This step is problematic due to the information overload and cognitive load of the large quantity of data. This research builds upon previous work in automating the classification process using a Hopfield Neural Network. Evaluation of the Kohonen output in comparison with the Hopfield and human expert output over the same set of data found that the Kohonen SOM performed as well as a human expert in the recollection of associated term pairs and outperformed the Hopfield Neural Network algorithm. Using information retrieval measures, recall of concepts using the Kohonen algorithm was equivalent to the human expert. However, precision was poor. The graphical representation of textual data produced by the Kohonen SOM suggests many opportunities for improving information management of textual electronic information. Increasing uses of electronic mail, computer-based bulletin board systems, and world-wide web textual data suggest an overwhelming amount of textual information to manage. This research suggests that the Kohonen SOM may be used to automatically create "a picture that can represent a thousand (or more) words."

Abstract:
Due to the fastest growing senior population, age-related cognitive impairments, including Alzheimer's disease, are becoming among the most common diseases in the United States. Currently, prevention through delay is considered the best way to tackle Alzheimer's disease and related dementia, as there is no known cure for those diseases. Early detection is crucial, in that screening individuals with Mild Cognitive Impairment may delay its onset and progression. For my dissertation work, I investigate how computing technologies can help medical practitioners detect and monitor cognitive impairment due to dementia, and I develop a computerized sketch-based screening tool. In this dissertation, I present the design, implementation, and evaluation of the ClockMe System, a computerized Clock Drawing Test. The traditional Clock Drawing Test (CDT) is a rapid and reliable instrument for the early detection of cognitive dysfunction. Neurologists often notice missing or extra numbers in the clock drawings of people with cognitive impairments and use scoring criteria to make a diagnosis and treatment plan. The ClockMe System includes two different applications - (1) the ClockReader for the patients who take the Clock Drawing Test and (2) the ClockAnalyzer for clinicians who use the CDT results to make a diagnosis or to monitor patients. The contributions of this research are (1) the creation of a computerized screening tool to help clinicians identify cognitive impairment through a more accessible and quick-and-easy screening process; (2) the delivery of computer-collected novel behavioral data, which may offer new insights and a new understanding of a patient's cognition; (3) an in-depth understanding of different stakeholders and the identification of their common user needs and desires within a complicated healthcare workflow system; and (4) the triangulation of multiple data collection methods such as ethnographical observations, interviews, focus group meetings, and quantitative data from a user survey in a real-world deployment study.

Abstract:
Computer graphics is an important tool for engineering visualization and computer aided design systems. The use of this tool to create graphical user interfaces (GUIs) for engineering applications is growing dramatically owing to the almost real-time response to creative thinking which allows engineers to quickly visualize many potential solutions to a problem. This thesis describes the creation of a GUI for a software system which is capable of predicting the surface temperatures generated at the contact between two sliding bodies. This GUI uses the ISO standard PHIGS for 3D graphics support. The use of PHIGS and the standard programming language C renders this system device-independent and hence, portable.

Although PHIGS supports the creation of graphics-based engineering applications, many basic functions required for a GUI (e.g. functions for menus, templates, etc.) need to be created from scratch. During the creation of the GUI described in this thesis, special attention was paid to functions which could be created as re-usable, high-level functions. These functions can be made available to other programmers who wish to create similar GUIs for other engineering applications. The design and creation of these high-level functions and the use of these high-level functions in the creation of the GUI for the surface temperature prediction software are described in this thesis.

Abstract:
This study aims to examine potential efficiency gains within a manufacturing unit by implementing processes for knowledge and information distribution. A specialized software tool, implementing processes for knowledge and information distribution, was developed and then examined to see if any efficiency gains could be accomplished. The scientific questions to be addressed were: Will well-defined strategies and processes for information and knowledge management lead to higher efficiency within a manufacturing unit? Is a specialized software a useful tool and how should it be designed to facilitate efficient information and knowledge management? With the help of information management theories, interviews and a field study five main problem areas were found. To counter the problem areas and approach the technical aspect of this study human-computer interactions theories were used to develop three prototypes in an iterative process. The third and final prototype was evaluated by using user testing and interview questions. We found that well-defined strategies and processes for information and knowledge management lead to higher efficiency within a manufacturing unit. By using the specialized software tool it will be easier to facilitate efficient information and knowledge management and that general rules on how to create such a software exists. Due to the result and reactions from the employees our recommendations is for FLIR Systems AB to conduct an implementation study using our software as the frontend.

Ett specialiserat verktyg, som implementera de processer för kunskap och informationsspridning, har utvecklats och sedan granskas för att se om några effektivitetsvinster kan åstadkommas. De vetenskapliga frågor som skall besvaras är: Kommer väldefinierade strategier och processer för informations- och kunskapsspridning att leda till ökad effektivitet inom en tillverkningsenhet? Är en specialiserad mjukvara ett användbart verktyg och hur ska den designas för att uppmuntra effektiv informations- och kunskapshantering? Fem problemområden identifierade med hjälp av teorier om informationshantering, intervjuer och en fältstudie. För att förbättra de problemområden och närma den tekniska aspekten av denna studie användes människa-datorinteraktionsteorier för att utveckla tre prototyper i en iterativ process. Den tredje och sista prototypen utvärderades med hjälp av användartester och intervjufrågor. Vi fann att väldefinierade strategier och processer för information och kunskapshantering leder till högre effektivitet inom en tillverkningsenhet. Genom att använda ett specialiserat verktyg underlättar det för en effektiv informations- och kunskapshantering. Vi fann även att allmänna regler för hur man designar en sådan mjukvara existerar. Utifrån resultatet och reaktionerna från de anställda är våra rekommendationer för FLIR Systems AB att genomföra en implementationsstudie med hjälp av vår programvara som interface.

Abstract:
The major challenge for multimedia designers is to create user experiences that enrich the reception of content, designer�s traditional reliance on intuition not ensuring audience�s interest or understanding. The developing philosophy of user-centred design argues that designers should begin from an appreciation of their audience. In design there are various positions on how to achieve this, ranging from traditional market research through psychological, ethnographic, anthropological and sociological research to the direct involvement of users in the design process. This study draws on established knowledge about the cognitive processes, psychological motivations and preferences of user groups to advance a model for better-targeted and more effective design. In particular, it uses Howard Gardener�s multiple intelligences theory to extend design thinking. Where a specific audience is apparent multiple intelligences theory implies that (1) the interface should match user�s perceptual tools, cognitive styles and responses and (2) there is far greater scope than presently recognized to vary the design of the graphical user interface. The research explores how interactive multimedia can harness the �language of vision� (Johannes Itten) for certain audiences, in this case Taiwanese drawing students aiming to enter tertiary art and design programs where high academic drawing skills are an important selection criterion. The high �visual intelligence� of the target audience indicates their heightened capacity to process visual concepts and elements. The application of Gardner�s ideas is a speculative one, based on hypothesis and the formulation of an experimental graphical user interface environment built around predominantly visual cues. The designed outcome incorporates knowledge and understanding that is widely applicable to GUI design, challenging designers to develop multimedia products with innovative, imaginative design approaches that cater for the different needs and interests of users where the audience is a specific and identifiable one.

Abstract:
Rotor dynamic analysis, which requires extensive amount of data and rigorous analytical processing, has been eased by the advent of powerful and affordable digital computers. By incorporating the processor and a graphical interface post processor in a single set up, this program offers a consistent and efficient approach to rotor dynamic analysis. The graphic user interface presented in this program effectively addresses the inherent complexities of rotor dynamic analyses by linking the required computational algorithms together to constitute a comprehensive program by which input data and the results are exchanged, analyzed and graphically plotted with minimal effort by the user. Just by selecting an input file and appropriate options as required, the user can carry out a comprehensive rotor dynamic analysis (synchronous response, stability analysis, critical speed analysis with undamped map) of a particular design and view the results with several options to save the plots for further verification. This approach helps the user to modify the design of turbomachinery quickly, until an efficient design is reached, with minimal compromise in all aspects.
