Applying cognitive science to digital human modelling for user centred design

Applying User Centred Design to Adaptive Web-based E-Learning

Design Guidelines and User-Centred Digital Libraries

As current digital libraries are becoming more complex, the facilities provided by them will increase and the difficulty of learning associated with the complexity of using these facilities will also increase. In order to produce usable and useful interactive systems, designers need to ensure that good design features are incorporated into the systems, taking into consideration end-users' needs...

Design Guidelines for the User-Centred Collaborative Citizen Science Platforms

Online Citizen Science platforms are good examples of socio-technical systems where technology-enabled interactions occur between scientists and the general public (volunteers). Citizen Science platforms usually host multiple Citizen Science projects, and allow volunteers to choose the ones to participate in. Recent work in the area has demonstrated a positive feedback loop between participatio...

Applying NOMIS - Modelling Information Systems Using a Human Centred Approach

NOMIS is an innovative human centred information systems model‐ ling approach that is based on human observable actions. It seeks to deliver the desired objectivity and precision required in information systems development. From a theoretical perspective, NOMIS offers a vision into an Information System (IS) using different views that are complimentary, comprehensive and consistent. Some of the...

Player-Centred Game Design: Player Modelling and Adaptive Digital Games

We describe an approach to player-centred game design through adaptive game technologies [9]. The work presented is the result of on-going collaborative research between Media and Computing groups at the University of Ulster, and so we begin with a review of related literature from both areas before presenting our new ideas. In particular we focus on three areas of related research: understandi...
