How do we increase the findability and value of content? How do we maintain metadata and thesauri? Automated tools help apply structure to content, yet these capabilities deliver greatest value when combined with human-curated enhancement. When designing content/data applications, we pay particular attention to the "Enhancement Ecosystem."
Applying context and meaning is an ongoing activity - not something you do once during creation. This is particularly important for long-lived content: historically important texts/media, scientific literature, archives, museum/library object descriptions, data sets with multiple uses, and content where contributions span over years.
We explore: Tagging and folksonomy so authors/editors understand how users apply language and meaning to content; Curation and rule-setting in concept extraction; Mining user annotations and the content locations where they are applied; How auto-tagging suggestions can be refined to maximize the meaning that is applied to unstructured content over time.

Architecture for Flow w/ Wardley Mapping, Domain-Driven Design, and Team Topo...Susanne Kaiser
In a world of rapid changes and increasing uncertainties, organisations have to continuously adapt and evolve to remain competitive and excel in the market. In such a dynamic business landscape organisations need to design for adaptability.
Combining different perspectives and techniques from business strategy (Wardley Mapping), software architecture and design (Domain-Driven Design), and team organisation (Team Topologies) provides a powerful toolset to design, build and evolve adaptive systems and team structures for a fast flow of change.
This talk illustrates the concepts, connects the dots between these three perspectives, and demonstrates how these techniques help to evolve a fictitious legacy system for a fast flow of change.
The journey describes the approach to evolve:
* From functional silo teams to cross-functional autonomous stream-aligned teams and platform teams
* From a monolithic big ball of mud to a modular, loosely coupled system
* From running on-premises infrastructure to cloud-hosted services

Overview of effective green building policy and related programs. This presentation was delivered in the "Green Profit" conference in Kingston, ON to an audience of policy makers, researchers, ENGO's, and industry. I was invited to speak about the trends I see in the policy world, and to educate listeners about what existing policies are present, how they are being used, what is coming in the future, how to change policy to increase effectiveness of encouraging more green buildings to be built, and similar items.
How Lucene Powers the LinkedIn Segmentation and Targeting Platformlucenerevolution
Presented by Hien Luu, Technical Lead, LinkedIn
Rajasekaran Rangaswamy, LinkedIn
For internet companies, marketing campaigns play an important role in acquiring new customers, retaining and engaging existing customers, and promoting new products. The LinkedIn segmentation and targeting platform helps marketing teams to easily and quickly create member segments based on member attributes using nested predicate expressions ranging from simple to complex. Once segments are created, then those qualified members are targeted with marketing campaigns.
Lucene is a key piece of technology in this platform. This session will cover how we leverage Hadoop to efficiently build Lucene indexes for a large and growing member attribute data set of 225 million members, and how Lucene is used to create segments based on complex nested predicate expressions. This presentation will also share some of the lessons we learned and challenges we encountered from using Lucene to search over large data sets.
What is all the buzz around containers and Docker? This new technology definitely is the solution to all the ills of distributed computing. After all, the combination of instant startup and reliable execution makes Docker containers ideal for delivering and running successful apps at scale.
However, Docker introduces new challenges that require new ways of management. The deployment complexities and security concerns in Docker environments challenge even the most advanced IT teams.
IT personnel need real-time answers to questions like:
How many Docker containers are currently running?
When have these containers been created or stopped?
What are the key operational container metrics (CPU, memory, network usage)?
What are the containers consuming most resources?
We will discuss:
Trends that are driving the explosive adoption of Docker
The pros and the cons of containers
Key challenges in managing Docker environments
How Sumo Logic can provide deep metrics to manage Docker performance and security effectively
IA-for-AI: An evolving framework for a changing IA practiceDesign for Context
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is dramatically changing—reshaping—the human and design landscape of computers, the internet, and society. It is increasingly used in engines behind many decision-making tools and information resources, as well as in machines (vehicles, drones, robots, etc.).
AI uses information models, structured data/content, real-world contextual sensor data, and formalized instructions to shape the machine’s “understanding” of information spaces and tasks. These elements are familiar to anyone working in the field of IA and UX. But the focus is changing: We now need methods to shape software that learns dynamically in real-time interaction with users.
This talk challenges us to engage in the transformational change to our practice, designing for and with AI. Alongside a reflection on our vital roles, I present an emerging Collaboration/Action Framework to support AI design, helping us think about language, models, methods, and how we communicate with developers and stakeholders. During the conference, rich conversations emerged within the IA community about how our involvement in creating responsible and engaging AI tools will change and shape the IA community over the coming years.

Guiding Users Towards Action: Empowering Decisions Through Effective Data DesignDesign for Context
How do you provide meaningful insights that lead to action? When designing a UI, we need to consider what data to display, how to display it in a way that helps users interpret its meaning, and how best to indicate what can be done based on the data and its meaning. Good design can help users quickly grasp a situation, make better decisions, and take productive actions. We will provide a framework that describes a progressive evolution of data displays and actions, and share a broad range of examples, from consumer products to enterprise web applications, to discuss ways to design effective data displays and integrate actions.

Hello, meet Hola! Design for mixed-language interfacesDesign for Context
A global online user population necessitates the exchange of content from different sources, and the ability to aggregate multilingual content is a critical requirement within many research and business contexts. Mixed-language content provides a rich information set, while adding another layer of complexity and scale, which we can address through thoughtful UX design. To effectively reach a global audience and provide access to content in multiple languages, we must structure mixed-language content to support its successful presentation and delivery, and provide innovative designs that facilitate exploration.
In this talk given at the UXPA conference, we discuss real-world examples for:
– Presenting content in multiple languages so it co-exists well on the screen and in search
– Designing interfaces that support navigating, exploring, and understanding content available in multiple languages
– Structuring content to support a flexible, scalable multilingual information management approach
Some of the examples in this slideshow are from projects we have worked on, and some are not.
How IAs Can Shape the Future of Human-AI CollaborationDesign for Context
Artificial intelligence is described as an “emerging intelligence,” but the emergent collaboration with humans is what fosters positive personal, societal, and environmental outcomes. We outline a framework that Information Architects can use to think about the key issues in designing for AI systems.
Good facilitation skills are essential for many content strategy tasks and projects. Guiding internal colleagues as well as external groups to shared, successful outcomes serves essential project needs, including: team and stakeholder consensus, a clear strategic vision, and the ability to see content in context.
An effective facilitator does this by considering and balancing multiple individual perspectives and priorities within over-arching business goals--while also keeping user needs and goals at the forefront. Design for Context’s Duane Degler discusses techniques and approaches to channel the passions and personal goals of each participant, effectively guiding the group towards successful outcomes.
User and Information Design Considerations for Effective Semantic SearchDesign for Context
Presented by Duane Degler, Design for Context, at the NFAIS 2019 Annual Conference in Alexandria, VA, on February 14, 2019.
Semantic search seeks to enhance the meaning in content, to more closely align the searcher and the available information resources. This means there is a strong user-centered aspect needed to unlock the benefits. What scenarios, needs, experiences, and mental models do our user bring to their search task? How does that inform our modeling of the “meaning” derived from the content? How do we avoid encoding rigidity of meaning by creating learning opportunities for both the users and the underlying search index and algorithms?
As we model content, we recognize that its character, structure, and context all matter. Alongside strategies for incorporating taxonomies and indexing the content itself, we will explore how you can prepare a knowledge graph that increases the potential for aligning meaning between your content and your users.
On the user experience side, we will introduce design approaches such as supporting iteration for exploratory search, modeling a language landscape, applying user context identification, creating feedback loops based on results selection and use, and using visual signposting for lightweight semantics in the user interface.
Know Thyself, and To Thine Users Be True: Understanding and Managing Biases t...Design for Context
Presented by Design for Context's Karen Bachmann at the User Experience Professionals Association (UXPA) Conference June 28, 2018, in Puerto Rico.
Despite our best intentions, UX practitioners are subject to hidden biases and barriers as any of our fellow humans. It’s more important than ever to understand our own biases to make sure we can be most effective in our communication and our design work. Increasing application of AI and machine learning as well as ever increasing amounts of data on people particularly are areas where hidden and unmitigated biases can create bad and even harmful outcomes. We explore ways to discover and discuss biases constructively before they undermine work, look at case studies of products that suffered from hidden biases, and consider pragmatic approaches to manage their influence in our projects.
Big Data in Small Graphics: Micro-Visualizations in SaaS and Enterprise Appli...Design for Context
Presented by Design for Context's Lisa Battle and Rachel Sengers at the User Experience Professionals Association (UXPA) Conference June 26, 2018, in Puerto Rico.
The power of communicating data visually can’t be overstated. We often need to convey a lot of information at a glance to help expert users make quick decisions and work efficiently. For infrequent or novice users, a visual overview of a process or concept can provide orientation and help reduce the risk of mistakes. For all users, the micro-visualization is a small but powerful way to package detailed information in an easily digestible, visual form. Individually or arranged into arrays, these compact visual elements pack a huge punch, giving your users the ability to quickly assess trends, spot outliers, and identify priorities. This presentation will explore the use of data micro-visualizations to enhance user experience and explain how to utilize pre-attentive processing and gestalt mechanisms to design more effective visualizations.
Archives Strengthening Historical Narrative: Sharing digital and linked data ...Design for Context
Private collections provide engaging windows into little-known subjects that, when made discoverable, are incredibly relevant to many diverse audiences. The Texas Coastal Bend Collection (TCBC) is a digital-first private collection that offers rich insight into the culture of the Texas Coastal Bend ranching communities, starting with the Irish immigration in 1834. The site’s topic-based framework immerses people in the region’s cultural history. Rich, well-structured metadata (subjects, people, places, historic events, relationships) allows every page to be a gateway for exploring over 200 artistic photographs, 9,000 images, archival documents, books, maps, genealogies, and 1,400 hours of oral history.
We describe the strategies and tools that enable rich exploration of the TCBC’s unique resources, its maintenance by a small dedicated staff, and how meaningful digital connections with other institutions can foster storytelling across an array of subjects. The digital approach that underpins the TCBC, incorporating highly structured categorization, linked data, IIIF, and a unique audio player, provides insights that can be used by other museums and archives.
Going Global: The Intersection of IA and UX in a Multilingual EnvironmentDesign for Context
A global online community necessitates the exchange of content from many sources and across languages. Advances in the semantic web and linked data enable the aggregation of diverse content. Multilingual content provides potential for a richer information set while adding a layer of complexity to our projects. As information architects, we need to structure multilingual content to support its successful presentation and delivery. As user experience designers, we need to provide innovative designs that facilitate exploration of that content. How do different data modeling, linking, and ontology decisions affect the UX design? How can IA and UX support each other?
In this talk at IA Summit 2018 in Chicago, IL, USA, we focus on two specific areas:
- Structuring multilingual source content and enabling multilingual authors to contribute to a repository
- Designing wayfinding that supports navigating, exploring, and understanding content in sites that are sourced from multiple languages
Drawing from our experiences in the digital humanities space, we discuss real world examples for:
- Data modeling strategies, ontologies, taxonomies and metadata that support a flexible, scalable multilingual information management system
- Several multilingual data-driven interfaces and what they reveal about the challenges or opportunities in harmonizing multilingual content
- Patterns for displaying and navigating to content that is provided in different languages
Just as building and city architects can’t control every use and evolution of their spaces over time, it is also true that information architects need to anticipate – but not control – the various people who engage with information spaces. This includes regular inhabitants, visitors, and those who never engage directly with the space but have a more distant interaction – suppliers of goods and services, and people who are affected by the decisions and actions of those within the space.
Built spaces are not static, they are dynamic. The idea of designing your IA to respond to dynamic conditions is not new, but what does that mean in practice? How do we approach our work and the additional responsibilities that arise in these spaces?
We can create ecosystems that accommodate a range of different information sources and uses. We can also support the immediate goals and needs of the current stakeholders, while anticipating the long-term evolution of what we build. We will incorporate terms we know into our process – terms like adaptive, responsive, flexible, emergent, empowering – but with deeper meanings, as they have to guide the use of sophisticated information models and advanced/AI technologies.
This talk provides an overview of the dynamic information landscape, positions the role of IA firmly at the heart of its ecosystem design, and provides ideas for weaving this into your practice.
Integrating Taxonomies and Ontologies into Enterprise Search and BrowseDesign for Context
Presented by Duane Degler, on February 6, 2018, at the Data Harmony User Group in Albuquerque, NM.
Over the course of multiple search projects, we have found ways to increase taxonomy integration into search and browse. For users to get the greatest value out of your taxonomies, the structures need to be woven into the indexing strategies for search and browse. You also can incorporate capabilities into the user interface to help users interact with taxonomy terms in ways that increase usability and relevance. Ultimately, you want to leverage your taxonomies into feedback loops that help you refine both the taxonomy and the content over time. New features in Data Harmony can potentially extend your capabilities even further. This talk will briefly outline approaches for drawing the greatest value from your taxonomies for your users.
Presentation by Michael Owens and Lesley Humphreys at the Baltimore UX Meetup, on May 9, 2017.
As user experience professionals, we know that the principles of universal design benefit everyone: we should strive to make our information and our applications accessible to all. However, accessibility can seem like an overwhelming topic – where do we start? What are the guidelines? What is the UX designer’s role in the process? In this presentation, we introduce the standards, including the recently published WCAG 2.1 guidelines, look at some assistive technologies, and explore the types of deliverables that can be used to specify accessibility compliant interactions.
Presentation by Karen Bachmann at the UXPA2017 conference in Toronto, Ontario, on June 6, 2017.
Ethics is fundamentally about doing the right thing for people, not about complying with laws. Yet incorporating ethics into our design practice can be challenging.

Presentation by Lisa Battle, Rachel Sengers, and Michael Owens at the UXPA2017 conference in Toronto, Ontario, on June 8, 2017.
The next big challenge on the horizon for UX in application design is not about the small screen—it’s about going large. Large monitors keep getting cheaper – and higher resolution – so many users working with SaaS and enterprise applications today have multiple monitors on their desks. It is frustrating for those users when applications do not scale well to a larger size, wasting screen real estate, and not taking advantage of the additional monitors to support side-by-side comparisons and multi-tasking that are common to knowledge workers in many domains. As UX design consultants, we are increasingly seeing opportunities to improve user experience and productivity for business users by utilizing multiple monitors. In this presentation, we discuss new UX design patterns and challenges that arise in software and web-based application design for multiple monitors, illustrating them with real project examples.
Perspectives on Open Source for Museums’ Digital ProjectsDesign for Context
Presentation by Duane Degler (Design for Context), David Newbury (Carnegie Museums of Pittsburgh), and Robert Sanderson (The J. Paul Getty Trust) at the American Alliance of Museums 2017 Annual Meeting & MuseumEXPO in St. Louis, MO, on May 10, 2017.
Open-source software has transformed the technology industry, and the movement's goals of community and access align closely with our museums' missions. So why do our open-source projects so often fail to succeed? Three experienced panelists offer three different perspectives and discuss topics such as the role of community and how to foster it, the importance of maintenance and maintainers, Not-Invented-Here, reputation capital, alignment issues with grant-funded projects, business models for open-source projects, and long-term sustainability.
Micro-visualizations: Small Visualizations that Make a Big ImpactDesign for Context
Presentation by Rachel Sengers and Lisa Battle at the UXDC2017 conference in Washington, DC, on April 15, 2017.
We hear a lot about visualizations for big data these days, but what about small data? The power of communicating data visually can’t be overstated. When designing for expert users, we often need to convey a lot of information at a glance to help them make quick decisions and work efficiently. For infrequent or novice users, a visual overview of a process or concept can provide orientation and help reduce the risk of mistakes. Enter the micro-visualization, a way of packaging detailed information in an easily digestible, visual way. In this presentation, we present examples of several different types of micro-visualizations and discuss how they can be used effectively to improve user experience.
