A bluffer's guide to IA and content strategyNeil Allison
This presentation was delivered to the Edinburgh Open Source Breakfast Meet Up group on 1 August 2014.
It's a quick run through what information architecture and content strategy are, drawing on quotes and resources from experts in the field.
My main point, however, is that user focus is what really matters. I show how the disciplines relate to other areas such as UX, usability and interaction design.
I also make the point that most customers (in this case, people wanting a website or app) don't care about such things. They care about revenue, cutting costs, satisfying customers and mitigating risk.
So I end with a couple of points I think are fundamental to get across to customers and suggest ways in which you can engage and collaborate.

As computing costs decreased and computing power grew over time, so increased the complexity of the problems computers were called to solve and complexity of software. Enterprise applications quickly went through the stage of monolithic applications to client-server to multiple tier and beyond – to the land of massively distributed architectures. We arrived at the point where enterprise software is well beyond the capability of a single person or even a reasonably practical group of people to understand and control. Are microsevices the answer? Join Chris Munns to learn about how microservices are scaled at Amazon.
Is Lean UX Agile’s Brain? How Lean UX Fixes Common Agile ChallengesFITC
Agile development methods are sweeping the software industry, but reconciling UX, Agile and stakeholder demands for certainty are a struggle for many companies.
Expanding on a (in)famous “Agile doesn’t have brain” quote, Nick Van Weerdenburg, founder of Rangleio, shares his insights from 60+ modern front-end JavaScript projects on how Lean UX can drive the conversations that drive the creation of the right solution for the right audience.
Objective
Show the audience how Lean UX practices can drive the conversations that drive the effective adoption of Agile in companies small and large.
Target Audience
Managers, designers, developers and anyone who has a vested interest in build the right software for the right audience in the most effective manner.
Assumed Audience Knowledge
A basic knowledge User experience and Agile development.
Five Things Audience Members Will Learn
How to connect the user to the Agile development process
How to use Lean UX to drive Agile prioritization
How Lean UX creates the right conversations and eliminates the wrong ones
How to avoid UX design become a defacto waterfall process
How to use Lean UX to help drive effective enterprise transformation to Agile practices
Exploring and Integrating UX in Open Source Software Development Victoria Bondarchuk
Slides for my talk at ApacheCon 2016
https://apacheconeu2016.sched.org/event/8ULf/exploring-and-integrating-ux-in-open-source-software-development-victoria-bondarchuk-seoul-tech-society
The importance of introducing usability activities into free open source software development has been acknowledged in the research and by the community, yet FOSS products have been criticized for having little or no emphasis on usability. The decentralized and engineering-driven approach of open source projects can conflict with usability methodologies. We will review existing cases of UX design contribution to open source projects, discuss how designers can become part of the community and what engineers can do to improve usability of the software they build.
Integrating User Experience Design into the Product LifecycleICS
There is overwhelming evidence that investing in the user experience (UX) produces a superior product. When the needs of the customer are met, it becomes much easier to meet business goals. Many companies still do not put their focus on UX, instead relying on what organically comes out of the software development process. Often, it is not a lack of interest in UX, but rather a gap in skills and knowledge that prevents good UX design practices from being applied to product development.
Learn how to put “UX First” in the product lifecycle, allowing developers to focus on engineering tasks and build the correct product to meet and exceed customer needs. We will explore the relationship of UX to Agile development methods, help explain some of the UX jargon and present strong business reasons to focus on UX no matter where you are currently in the product lifecycle.

- UX defined, state of UX work in IRs
Making the case
- UX support in IRs
Unpacking our hacking
- What we did, what you can do
Future plans
- Final takeaways
6. UX defined
"User experience" encompasses all
aspects of the end-user's
interaction with the company, its
services, and its products.
Jakob Nielsen and Don Norman
7. How to do high quality UX, per
Nielsen and Norman
• Seamless merging
• Engineering
• Marketing
• Graphical and industrial design
• Interface design
8. General state of UX work in IRs
• Major focus
–Content recruitment
–Engagement of faculty
• Minor focus
–Usability
–Personae development
–User expectations
13. UX is also about service, and a
repository is a service
14. People want, need, expect good UX.
People have a stake in UX.
Repositories have a stake in people.
Takeaway: Participation = Buy in.
Build UX into your repository.
15. Users are integral to the
repository ecosystem
But what if you have these constraints:
• No one who officially does UX
• Tight timeline of 9 months to
production
• You need a lot of people, and FAST, to
inform features and functionalities

feedback after beta release
“I don’t have
time to deposit
all my files.”
“My files are
bigger than
the maximum
allowed size.”
“I would like to
be able to group
my files.”
25. Established the ScholarSphere
Users’ Group (SUG)
• Core set of diverse users
• Participatory design
• Direct access to service development
• Insight into user behavior,
expectations, goals
• Shared coordination of SUG activities
