1 More Than Screen Deep Theoractice

2 XXX Deep  Underdogs: Beauty Is More Than Fur Deep  Real Love Is More Than Skin Deep  Beauty is Only Screen Deep  “ People use the web to buy things, find information, make contacts, and what they notice is whether they can successfully buy things, find information, and make contacts. ”  More Than Screen Deep

3 Every-Citizen Interface project  Background  The national information infrastructure(NII) Accepted as public infrastructureAccepted as public infrastructure  Concern about What will be required to enable most of the public to use the NII resourcesWhat will be required to enable most of the public to use the NII resources  Current interfaces still exclude many people from effective NII accessstill exclude many people from effective NII access  Mission  Developing interface technologies to use the NII effectivelyto use the NII effectively

4 Interface technologies  Not replacing older technologies  Current used interface technologies  Technologies not comprehensively available  Technologies for the coming years  Speech recognition, Natural language, processing, Software agent, Virtual reality, Three-dimensional interface, Collaboration and communication technologies, Gesture recognition, Point devices, and Haptic devices  Provide opportunities to create new human- machine interface

5 Diversification  No single interface can be used by everyone  Motivations for diversification  Various activities and conditions of use for technologies Blind people and drivers for graphical user interfaceBlind people and drivers for graphical user interface  Nomadicity Regardless of locationRegardless of location  Business for mass-market technologies

6 Starting point for Research  Asking  What people’s needs for the NII is  How these needs can be met  Sequence of work  Analyzing people’s task process w/ or w/o technical aids and how technology improve the process  Investigating the existing applications  Building the proposed system  Testing, refining, and evaulting  Helpful to decide technical areas and new research goals

7 Recommendations  3 Recommendations  For research of new and effective ECIs  Firstly,  Seeking new paradigms for human-machine interaction  Secondly,  Research required to provide the component subsystems needed for ECIs  Thirdly,  Research on systems-level design and development of human-machine interfaces

8 First Recommendation  Seeking new paradigms for human-machine interaction  New paradigm means  To employ new modes of thinking and new medium for input and output  To conceptualize application interfaces  EX)  OLD: Single user interacting with a single terminal using a mouse, menus, and windows  NEW: The interactions between humans and machines for communication, information retrieval, and performance of tasks

9 First Recommendation (2)  New paradigm should consider  every aspect of a person’s experience in using computing and communications The human-machine interface is more than screen deepThe human-machine interface is more than screen deep  People should experience a human problem domain interaction rather than a human- machine interaction  Properties and characteristics  Learnability  Modality and medium independence  Group activities

10 Second Recommendation  Research required to provide the component subsystems needed for ECIs  Research for human and organizational behaviors  Research for input and output technologies  Agent technologies

11 Third Recommendation  Research on systems-level design and development of human-machine interfaces  Development of theories and architectures for collaboration and problem solving  Research for human-centered design methodologies and social science  Building experimental human-machine system to test, refine, and measure the effectiveness

12 Reflection  Recommends how the research communities and individuals find technical areas (research agenda)  For research to build effective user interface  Can be applied to different research  Recommendations shape  Certain process and hierarchical relation  If applied to our studio project  Can find appropriate paradigm by considering the kinds of users and user environmentby considering the kinds of users and user environment  Can analyze subsystems By investigating the needed subsystemsBy investigating the needed subsystems  Can verify our proposed system By testing, refining, and measuring the performanceBy testing, refining, and measuring the performance

13 Question  Thank you for your attention!
