چکیده

Traditional methods of usability evaluation ignore some aspects related to navigation. In contrast the navigation in information space paradigm sees the user as situated within the space. The ENiSpace (Evaluating Navigation in Information Space) system builds on a paper based checklist to support designers in addressing navigational issues. The software version also includes reporting features, supporting documentation and references the aim being to inform design as well as to provide a method of evaluation. The current version consists primarily of the checklist, however the completed version will include collaborative evaluation features via an internet server.

Evaluating a Web-Based Tool for Crowdsourced Navigation Stress Tests

We present a web-based tool for evaluating the information architecture of a website. The tool allows the use of crowdsourcing platforms like Amazon’s MTurk as a means for recruiting test persons, and to conduct asynchronous remote navigation stress tests (cf. Instone 2000). We also report on an evaluation study which compares our tool-based crowdsourced approach to a more traditional laborator...

End-to-End Goal-Driven Web Navigation

We propose a goal-driven web navigation as a benchmark task for evaluating an agent with abilities to understand natural language and plan on partially observed environments. In this challenging task, an agent navigates through a website, which is represented as a graph consisting of web pages as nodes and hyperlinks as directed edges, to find a web page in which a query appears. The agent is r...
