First Steps with Globus Compute Multi-User EndpointsGlobus
In this presentation we will share our experiences around getting started with the Globus Compute multi-user endpoint. Working with the Pharmacology group at the University of Auckland, we have previously written an application using Globus Compute that can offload computationally expensive steps in the researcher's workflows, which they wish to manage from their familiar Windows environments, onto the NeSI (New Zealand eScience Infrastructure) cluster. Some of the challenges we have encountered were that each researcher had to set up and manage their own single-user globus compute endpoint and that the workloads had varying resource requirements (CPUs, memory and wall time) between different runs. We hope that the multi-user endpoint will help to address these challenges and share an update on our progress here.

In software engineering, the right architecture is essential for robust, scalable platforms. Wix has undergone a pivotal shift from event sourcing to a CRUD-based model for its microservices. This talk will chart the course of this pivotal journey.
Event sourcing, which records state changes as immutable events, provided robust auditing and "time travel" debugging for Wix Stores' microservices. Despite its benefits, the complexity it introduced in state management slowed development. Wix responded by adopting a simpler, unified CRUD model. This talk will explore the challenges of event sourcing and the advantages of Wix's new "CRUD on steroids" approach, which streamlines API integration and domain event management while preserving data integrity and system resilience.
Participants will gain valuable insights into Wix's strategies for ensuring atomicity in database updates and event production, as well as caching, materialization, and performance optimization techniques within a distributed system.
Join us to discover how Wix has mastered the art of balancing simplicity and extensibility, and learn how the re-adoption of the modest CRUD has turbocharged their development velocity, resilience, and scalability in a high-growth environment.

2. HCI in the software process
• Software engineering and the design process
for interactive systems
• Usability engineering
• Iterative design and prototyping
• Design rationale
3. the software lifecycle
• Software engineering is the discipline for
understanding the software design process, or
life cycle
• Designing for usability occurs at all stages of
the life cycle, not as a single isolated activity
5. Activities in the life cycle
Requirements specification
designer and customer try capture what the system is
expected to provide can be expressed in natural language or
more precise languages, such as a task analysis would
provide
Architectural design
high-level description of how the system will provide the
services required factor system into major components of the
system and how they are interrelated needs to satisfy both
functional and nonfunctional requirements
Detailed design
refinement of architectural components and interrelations to
identify modules to be implemented separately the
refinement is governed by the nonfunctional requirements
6. Verification and validation
Verification
designing the product right
Validation
designing the right product
The formality gap
validation will always rely to some extent on subjective means
of proof
Management and contractual issues
design in commercial and legal contexts
Real-world
requirements
and constraints The formality gap
7. The life cycle for interactive
systems
cannot assume a linear
sequence of activities
as in the waterfall model
lots of feedback!

Coding and
unit testing
Integration

Operation and
maintenance
8. Usability engineering
The ultimate test of usability based on measurement of user
experience
Usability engineering demands that specific usability measures
be made explicit as requirements
Usability specification
– usability attribute/principle
– measuring concept
– measuring method
– now level/ worst case/ planned level/ best case
Problems
– usability specification requires level of detail that may not be
– possible early in design satisfying a usability specification
– does not necessarily satisfy usability
9. part of a usability
specification for a VCR
Attribute: Backward recoverability
Measuring concept: Undo an erroneous programming
sequence
Measuring method: Number of explicit user actions
to undo current program
Now level: No current product allows such an undo
Worst case: As many actions as it takes to
program-in mistake
Planned level: A maximum of two explicit user actions
Best case: One explicit cancel action
10. ISO usability standard 9241
adopts traditional usability categories:
• effectiveness
– can you achieve what you want to?
• efficiency
– can you do it without wasting effort?
• satisfaction
– do you enjoy the process?
11. some metrics from ISO 9241
Usability Effectiveness Efficiency Satisfaction
objective measures measures measures
Suitability Percentage of Time to Rating scale
for the task goals achieved complete a task for satisfaction
Appropriate for Number of power Relative efficiency Rating scale for
trained users features used compared with satisfaction with
an expert user power features
Learnability Percentage of Time to learn Rating scale for
functions learned criterion ease of learning
Error tolerance Percentage of Time spent on Rating scale for
errors corrected correcting errors error handling
successfully
12. Iterative design and
prototyping
• Iterative design overcomes inherent problems of incomplete
requirements
• Prototypes
– simulate or animate some features of intended system
– different types of prototypes
• throw-away
• incremental
• evolutionary
• Management issues
– time
– planning
– non-functional features
– contracts
13. Techniques for prototyping
Storyboards
need not be computer-based
can be animated
Limited functionality simulations
some part of system functionality provided by designers
tools like HyperCard are common for these
Wizard of Oz technique
Warning about iterative design
design inertia – early bad decisions stay bad
diagnosing real usability problems in prototypes….
…. and not just the symptoms
14. Design rationale
Design rationale is information that explains why
a computer system is the way it is.
Benefits of design rationale
– communication throughout life cycle
– reuse of design knowledge across products
– enforces design discipline
– presents arguments for design trade-offs
– organizes potentially large design space
– capturing contextual information
15. Design rationale (cont’d)
Types of DR:
• Process-oriented
– preserves order of deliberation and decision-making
• Structure-oriented
– emphasizes post hoc structuring of considered
design alternatives
• Two examples:
– Issue-based information system (IBIS)
– Design space analysis
16. Issue-based information
system (IBIS)
• basis for much of design rationale research
• process-oriented
• main elements:
issues
– hierarchical structure with one ‘root’ issue
positions
– potential resolutions of an issue
arguments
– modify the relationship between positions and issues
• gIBIS is a graphical version
18. Design space analysis
• structure-oriented
• QOC – hierarchical structure:
questions (and sub-questions)
– represent major issues of a design
options
– provide alternative solutions to the question
criteria
– the means to assess the options in order to make a choice
• DRL – similar to QOC with a larger language
and more formal semantics
20. Psychological design rationale
• to support task-artefact cycle in which user tasks are
affected by the systems they use
• aims to make explicit consequences of design for users
• designers identify tasks system will support
• scenarios are suggested to test task
• users are observed on system
• psychological claims of system made explicit
• negative aspects of design can be used to improve next
iteration of design
21. Summary
The software engineering life cycle
– distinct activities and the consequences for
interactive system design
Usability engineering
– making usability measurements explicit as
requirements
Iterative design and prototyping
– limited functionality simulations and animations
Design rationale
– recording design knowledge
– process vs. structure
