Design of User Interfaces for Job Shop Environment

IDA - a design environment for ergonomic user interfaces

Surveys have shown that user interface development tools · with domain competence based on human tactors knowledge (e.g. guidelines, style guides, standards) are needed. This knowledge should be encounter.ed, learned, practised, and expanded during ongoing use so that designers can learn and .use it o,n demand.

Architectural Design for User Interfaces

This article discusses software architecture modelling for the design and development of interactive systems. Software architecture models should support properties and constraints prescribed by the software and cognitive psychology communities. From these observations, we derive a multi-agent framework applicable to the software design of interactive systems. An example shows how this general ...

A Hybrid Bacterial Swarming Methodology for Job Shop Scheduling Environment

Optimized utilization of resources is the need of the hour in any manufacturing system. A properly planned schedule is often required to facilitate optimization. This makes scheduling a significant phase in any manufacturing scenario. The Job Shop Scheduling Problem is an operation sequencing problem on multiple machines with some operation and machine precedence constraints, aimed to find the ...

Integrated User Interfaces for the Home Environment

In this paper, we describe the development of a hand held personal home assistent capable of controlling a wide range of electronic home devices. A demonstrator of the system was developed in the European project TIDE HEPHAISTOS (Home Environment Private Help AssISTant fOr elderly and diSabled). Its multimodal user interface is based on a coloured high resolution touch screen extended with spee...
