6. CSE490L - Spring 2008Web Interface Design, Prototyping, & Implementation6 Review of User Testing Examples of bottom line data are? –time, error rate, task completion %, … Using bottom line data requires ???? to get statistically reliable results –more participants Want to know what people are doing & why? collect –process data Between vs. within groups? –between groups: everyone participates in one condition –within groups: everyone participates in multiple conditions Automated usability. What are the tradeoffs? –faster than traditional techniques –can involve more participants  convincing data –tradeoff with losing observational data

7. What Are Design Patterns? Design patterns communicate common design problems and good solutions in a compact form

8. Design Patterns for Ubicomp? Ubicomp pushes computing into physical world –Wireless networking, sensors, devices Still in early phases of ubicomp, so why create a pattern language now? Speed up diffusion of interaction techniques and evaluation results Help us see links between ideas, see what’s missing –Like first periodic table Help designers avoid bad standards –Avoid blue links and poor privacy

9. Our Work on Ubicomp Design Patterns Developed 45 patterns for ubicomp Evaluation with sixteen pairs of designers (32 total) –9 pairs in first round of eval, 7 pairs in second round –Compared the design of a location- enhanced app with and without patterns –Better communication? Novices and experts? Privacy?

10. Method for Creating the Patterns Iterative process over three months Literature review to extract ideas –Tried to do top-bottom, too hard –Bottom-up much easier, card sorting to organize into groups 80 pattern candidates, focusing on interaction design –2 pages each –Critiqued by four other researchers Cut to 45 patterns for the first evaluation
