First users: Heuristics for designer/developer collaborationJonathan Abbett
From the University of Illinois Web Conference 2013.
Ask a web designer who his “first users” are, and he’ll probably name early adopters, stakeholders, or usability testers. Designers rarely consider their actual first users: the web developers they work with to build their designs. Over the last year, I’ve performed an informal user research project where the “users” were software development teams of all shapes and sizes. Drawing on these discussions and my background as a former web developer, I’ve created a set of friendly heuristics (in the tradition of Jakob Nielsen and Louis Rosenfeld) that designers can use to make their design materials far more useful for developers. I’ll show how these heuristics will encourage holistic solutions rather than piecemeal design work, surface critical implementation issues sooner, and establish a stronger basis for designer/developer collaboration.

Courier management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
It is now-a-days very important for the people to send or receive articles like imported furniture, electronic items, gifts, business goods and the like. People depend vastly on different transport systems which mostly use the manual way of receiving and delivering the articles. There is no way to track the articles till they are received and there is no way to let the customer know what happened in transit, once he booked some articles. In such a situation, we need a system which completely computerizes the cargo activities including time to time tracking of the articles sent. This need is fulfilled by Courier Management System software which is online software for the cargo management people that enables them to receive the goods from a source and send them to a required destination and track their status from time to time.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.

these systems through graphical interfaces
although, in some cases, legacy text-based
interfaces are still used
7. GUI characteristics
Characteristic Description
Windows Multiple windows allow different information to be
displayed simultaneously on the user’s screen.
Icons Icons different types of information. On some systems,
icons represent files; on others, icons represent
processes.
Menus Commands are selected froma menu rather than typed
in a command language.
Pointing A pointing device such as a mouse is used for selecting
choices froma menu or indicating items of interest in a
window.
Graphics Graphical elements can be mixed with tex
t on the same
display.
8. GUI advantages

10. UI design principles
• UI design must take account of the needs,
experience and capabilities of the system users
• Designers should be aware of people’s physical and
mental limitations (e.g. limited short-term memory)
and should recognise that people make mistakes
• UI design principles underlie interface designs
although not all principles are applicable to all
designs
11. User interface design principles
Principle Description
User familiarity The interface should use terms and
concepts which are drawn from the
experience of the people who will make most
use of the system.
Consistency The interface should be consistent in that,
wherever possible, comparable operations
should be activated in the same way.
Minimal surprise Users should never be surprised by the
behaviour of a system.
Recoverability The interface should include mechanisms to
allow users to recover from errors.
User guidance The interface should provide meaningful
feedback when errors occur and provide
context-sensitive user help facilities.
User diversity The interface should provide appropriate
interaction facilities for different types of
system user.
12. Design principles
• User familiarity
• The interface should be based on user-oriented
terms and concepts rather than computer concepts. For
example, an office system should use concepts such as
letters, documents, folders etc. rather than directories, file
identifiers, etc.
• Consistency
• The system should display an appropriate level
of consistency. Commands and menus should have the
same format, command punctuation should be similar,
etc.
• Minimal surprise
• If a command operates in a known way, the user should be
13. Design principles
• Recoverability
• The system should provide some resilience to
user errors and allow the user to recover from errors. This
might include an undo facility, confirmation of
destructive actions, 'soft' deletes, etc.
• User guidance
• Some user guidance such as help systems, on-line
manuals, etc. should be supplied
• User diversity
• Interaction facilities for different types of user should be
supported. For example, some users have seeing
difficulties and so larger text should be available
