GUI Design by schematic visualization
Thesis' paper from the Master in Information Design. Universidad de las Américas Puebla.
Omar Sosa Tzec.
(Thesis presented on Dec of 2006).
The information design, regarded as the act of creating usable messages, has a direct application on designing graphic user interfaces. In this regard, it is possible to consider schematic visualization as an option for users to unload cognitively through more stress on the visual characteristics of the interface. This represents a way to apply the Calm Technology paradigm proposed by Mark Weiser. By considering the level of iconicity conveyed into an interface of this nature, the understanding of how schematics works on the interface should be evaluated under a different approach rather than a traditional usability evaluation, for example by doing a communicability test (from the Semiotic Engineering theory). Thus, this paper describes the overall process to design and evaluation of an instant messaging client under these considerations and it also introduces a standpoint for interface design based on the three rhetorical appealing modes.

Efficiency or Quality of Experience: A Laboratory Study of Three Eyes- Free T...
A growing number of individuals who are blind or visually impaired is using smartphones in their daily
activities. The touchscreen is a standard component of smartphones. While benefitting people with low vision by enhancing control of the text style and color and the size of images and text, the touchscreen has the downside for visually
impaired users in that physical buttons for input of command selection and text entry are replaced with the touchscreen’s soft buttons. To overcome this limitation, we are investigating eyes-free approaches to using the smartphone’s touchscreen for information browsing. In this article, we present a laboratory study of three eyes-free touchscreen user
interfaces for browsing menu hierarchies. Our findings indicate that quality of experience and familiarity may be as important as the time efficiency of completing tasks.
Project Proposal - Digital Media
The document is a proposal for a digital media project exploring the history of mobile phones. The proposed interactive application would use fiducial markers and a webcam to play videos about different phone models throughout history. It would allow non-linear navigation through a database of phones represented as images with attached fiducials. The goal is to educate users about phone evolution in an engaging way inspired by interactive exhibits at the Walt Disney Family Museum. A prototype would be created using MAX MSP to test the concept before potential development for a museum installation.

Beyond The Smart Home
Tatsuya Yamazaki discusses the goals of smart home technologies and universal cities. Past home automation efforts in the 1970s failed due to high costs and inflexibility. Current approaches focus on interface technologies that can detect human intentions, feelings, and situations, rather than full automation. This allows for services tailored to users across networks. The ubiquitous home test bed implements context-aware services using sensors and tags. The ultimate goal is a universal city extending such technologies beyond individual homes and into communities.
learning from UI design improvement
The document summarizes the iterative design process of a user interface for setting groups. It describes 5 versions of the prototype interface with feedback and improvements between each version. The feedback focused on using more descriptive names, improving the layout and placement of buttons, adding search functionality, and ensuring key actions like create and delete were balanced. The final advice was that designs closer to human instinct tend to make for better user interfaces.
paper indoorway finding

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
