Interface Engineering for UX Professionals
Presentation at HCI-E2: Workshop on HCI Engineering Education – for developers, designers and more, IFIP WG 2.7/13.4 and WG 13.1 joint workshop at INTERACT 2021, Bari, Italy – August 31st, 2021
https://www.alandix.com/academic/papers/IE4UX2021/
This talk describes a small unit for teaching interface implementation to user experience (UX) designers. Where human–computer interaction (HCI) textbooks and courses include aspects of user interface engineering, they are usually focused towards computer science students. The unit described here is part of a larger online HCI course where the majority of learners are UX professionals, who found it hard to understand why they needed to learn about implementation. The paper explains why the author felt it important to include aspects that help the UX designer understand the behavioural and practical implications of ‘low level’ coding, and also the elements included in the unit. The resulting unit includes many concrete examples linking user behaviour to internal structure and having produced the material, it seems that this may also be a good way to introduce the topic to more technical students before digging into lower level details.

While initially concerned with computers, HCI has since expanded to cover almost all forms of information technology design
What is Human Computer Interraction
This document discusses Human Computer Interaction (HCI). HCI is the study of the interaction between humans (users) and computers, with the goal of improving usability and making computers more responsive to user needs. HCI is an interdisciplinary field involving computer scientists, psychologists, designers and others. It considers the human side through understanding cognition, as well as the computer side with interface design. The interaction occurs at the interface, where users communicate with the system, such as through direct manipulation. HCI is important for applications in areas like education, healthcare and assisting disabled individuals to use computers.
HCI - Chapter 6
The document discusses human-computer interaction in the software engineering process. It describes the typical lifecycle of software development, including requirements specification, design, implementation, testing, and maintenance.

Designing User Interactions with AI: Servant, Master or Symbiosis.
The AI Summit London, 22nd Sept. 2021.
https://www.alandix.com/academic/talks/AI-Summit-2021-UI-with-AI/
All AI ultimately affects people, in some cases deeply buried, in others interacting directly with users whether physically, such as autonomous vehicles, or virtually, such as recommender systems. In these interactions AI may be a servant, such as Alexa operating on command; or AI may be the master, such as gig-work platforms telling workers what to do. However, potentially the most productive interactions are a symbiosis, human and AI complimenting one another. Designing human-in-the-loop systems changes the requirements of both AI algorithms and user interfaces. This talk will explore some of the design principles and examples in this exciting area.
Key Takeaways:
* Deterministic ground
– helping users know what may or may not adapt
* Appropriate intelligence
– tuning AI to offer human alternatives and fail well
* Epistemic interaction
– choosing user interactions that are informative for ML

Introduction to HCI (UCC)
Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) emerged as an interdisciplinary field in the late 1970s due to developments in computer graphics, information retrieval, and a focus on usability by computer scientists and psychologists. Early interactions included Sketchpad in 1963, the mouse in 1964, and the graphical user interface. HCI involves the study of human-technology interaction through the lenses of computer science and psychology. Key perspectives in HCI include human factors, cognitive ergonomics, user-centered design, and experience-centered design. Studying HCI is important because it can help improve technology design and user experience, enhance productivity and satisfaction, and further our understanding of the role of technology in society.

HCI covers the use and context of computers, human characteristics, computer system architecture, and the development process. It is worth studying HCI because (1) it allows humans to use computers more productively, (2) everyday users now expect easy-to-use systems and will seek alternatives if usability is poor, and (3) considering human factors leads to fewer errors and higher productivity, morale, and safety, especially in critical systems.

AI for HCI – could this be a better title if I’d asked ChatGPT
Seminar in Pisa, Italy, 11th June 2024
https://www.alandix.com/academic/talks/Pisa-AI4HCI-2024/
AI has entered into all aspects of life. Sometimes this is hidden, below the surface of the devices and applications we use; sometimes much more explicit in interactions with devices and user interfaces. In this talk I'll explore some of the ways in which AI can be used to enhance existing interactions and also how we can effectively design user interfaces for A-rich systems. In addition I can be used by UX designers and AI developers need better ways to interact with their tools and systems. Perhaps more fundamental is not the direct effects of AI, but the ways in which it is fundamentally changing the society and world in which we live.
Just Counting – a tool ecosystem for personal numeric information
, , ,,,,
Paper presented at 17th International Conference on Advanced Visual Interfaces (AVI 2024), Arenzano (Genoa), Italy. June 3rd -7th 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/AVI2024-justcounting/
Numbers are part of day-to-day life from household budgeting to making sense of global warming and planning academic projects. But, for many, dealing with numeric information is daunting with multiple step changes in complexity moving from, say simple calculations to spreadsheet use, as well as difficulties managing different sources of complex information. In this paper we present an ecosystem of interconnected prototype tools that explore this space, including TSoW interpreting unfamiliar orders of magnitude; calQ a four-function calculator that shifts seamlessly to micro-spreadsheet; WS2 embedding spreadsheet-like features in web pages; and myData collating and connecting the diverse data sources. Collectively, these tools offer an envisionment to prompt discussion both of the way end-users can more easily deal with numeric information and of the background technical infrastructure necessary for this to happen.
A flexible QR-code infrastructure for heritage
Paper presented at AVICH 2024: Workshop on Advanced Visual Interfaces and Interactions in Cultural Heritage. AVI 2024 at Arenzano (Genoa), Italy, 4th June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/AVI2CH2024-qrarch/
QR codes are often used in outdoor cultural heritage settings. They are an established technology but inflexible, especially if the websites to which they point change their structure, or even disappear. This paper describes a web infrastructure for deploying QR codes that can be remapped dynamically, both as web resources move or change, but also to allow personalized and adaptable content. This is a small change in the underlying technology, but radically change potential applications. It can be used to personalise content to viewer’s preferences such as language choices, but could be used to support bespoke events or applications such as school visits or treasure hunts. The infrastructure has been deployed at the Memorial Gardens in the lost village of Troedrhiwfuwch, to enable the stories of fallen WWI and II service men to be retold for the current generation
Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI support
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

CDT Away Day Talk: Qualitative–Quantitative reasoning and lightweight numbers
Talk at EPIC CDT Away Day, St Davids Hotel, Cardiff, 11th April 2024.
https://alandix.com/academic/talks/CDT-away-day-April-2024-QQ/
As academics we need to deal with numbers including project management spreadsheets and student marks. In addition, they are part of day-to-day life whether household budgeting or working out how many socks to pack for a journey. Perhaps most crucially, many national and global issues require an understanding of numeric information from climate change to tax rates, and of course the Covid-19 pandemic. If citizens are not able to make sense of this, democracy fails. Of course, many are not only uncertain when dealing with numbers, but suffer more or less extreme maths anxiety. Indeed a recent UK survey found that, “over a third of adults (35%) say that doing maths makes them feel anxious, while one in five are so fearful it even makes them feel physically sick”. Sometimes detailed calculations are necessary, but often the critical skill is qualitative–quantitative reasoning, that is a qualitative understanding of quantitative phenomena. This can after be aided by the ability to use back-of-the-envelope calculations and dealing with lightweight numeric information. This talk discusses these issues and presents some prototype tools to explore the design space for personal numeric information.
This talk is largely the same as the one of the same name given at Ulster University in February. However, the slides have been updated to correct web material misattributed to BBC which was actually Guardian.

Talk at the Computational Foundry, Swansea University, 24th April 2024.
https://alandix.com/academic/talks/Swansea-song-April-2024/
This talk was my last formal act as Director of the Computational Foundry, before retiring from Swansea University at the end of April 2024. It was the last part in a research afternoon of the School of Mathematics and Computer Science, during which there were talks by other members of the school including a wonderful potted history of Maths and CS in the University and the Computational Foundry by John Tucker and Matt Jones.
This talk is a summary (partial) of more personal research through my time at Swansea, some in collaboration with others across the university, some with those external to Swansea, and some more individual. The talk used a number of web-based prototypes and systems that I've developed, many as weekend projects, to look at areas including AI, digital humanities and heritage, qualitative-quantitative reasoning, statistics and maths education, physical prototyping and UX tools. The talk included work inspired by teaching, consultancy and other real-world problems, but almost always also including a strong theoretical dimension. This reflects my personal background, as the son of a carpenter, but where mathematics was my academic 'first love' -- always seeking out ways in which practical making and fundamental knowledge interact. A theme that runs through many of the examples is the way in which many if the things that were completed while at Swansea had roots before, and also things I started here will continue on the future. And now I look forward to the coming years; although my employment at Swansea has ended, I will continue to collaborate with many in the University, both those I have met since being in Swansea and those I know before.

Human-Centred Artificial Intelligence – Malta 2024
Rarely a day goes by without an AI story in the news. Sometimes, there is good news, such as the use of AI to discover a new pharmaceutical, but often more dark, about AI bias or the way it may rob us of jobs, privacy or autonomy. The human impact of AI is of two kinds. First, what AI does directly - systems that we use and can design better or worse. Second, how AI shapes society, the way AI can create mismatches of power between large corporations and nation states, and between organisations and individuals. Recent advances in large-langage models in particular may mean that AI is only in the hands of those who can afford massive computational power and technical expertise. However, there are signs of hope, in particular the way that generative AI might enable niches applications that would otherwise be impossible. In education this may allow personalised tuition, bit also changes what needs to be learnt ... not necessarily digital; the ability of LLMs to generalise may offer ways for minority languages to survive; and in health there is the possibility of personalised medicine, and affordable ways to help well-being and mental health.
The future of UX design support tools - talk Paris March 2024
talk to ACM SIGCHI Paris Chapter at Université Paris-Saclay, 19th March 2024.
https://alandix.com/academic/talks/Paris-UX-2024/
From the 1980s graphical interfaces have dominated the way we envisage user interactions. While we know and teach our students about the importance of taking a wider perspective, the vast majority of tools used in practical UX (user experience) design are dominated by screens. In this talk I will explore ways in which future design can step beyond the pixelated surface.
One strand is understanding the physical nature of devices, human bodies, and the environments within which they engage; this is addressed in my 2022 book “TouchIT – Understanding Design in a Physical-Digital World” co-authored with Steve Gill, Jo Hare, and Devina Ramduny-Ellis.
The other strand is work over the last few years with Miriam Sturdee and Anna Carter, collectively entitled InContext, in which we have been exploring next generation UX tools, including investigative workshops and focus groups. While not a major issue, AI was mentioned in these workshops, but they were before the recent rise in awareness fostered by ChatGPT. I will contextualise this building on two other books that I am completing relating to AI and Human–Computer Interaction.
I will demonstrate two tools that explore the space of design beyond the screen. One, ScenarioViewer enables screen-based prototypes, at various levels of fidelity, to be embedded within story-board-like contextual images. The other, PhysProto, allows physical prototypes to be interactively explored remotely using video clips and Physigrams, executable models of the physical behaviour of the device. These are prototypes of prototyping tools, but also provotypes, designed to provoke you to consider for yourself the future of UX design support tools.

Exceptional Experiences for Everyone
Invited talk at AMID 2023 – 1st International Workshop on Accessibility and Multimodal Interaction Design Approaches in Museums for People with Impairments, in conjunction with MoileHCI Conference, 26 Sept. 2023.
https://alandix.com/academic/talks/AMID2023-exceptional/
Often accessibility is an afterthought or sticking plaster to fix the holes in an experience that was designed with a central audience in mind: maybe middle-aged, fully abled, well educated. Ideally we would have user experiences designed specifically for different kinds of modalities and in different tyles, not just because of the wide diversity of users, but also because any one user has varying needs and varying abilities at different times. In the context of a large museum or cultural institution this is already challenging, but appears impossible for smaller archives, or local community heritage. Yet if heritage and history is to be accessible this also applies to production, democratising digitisation and empowering marginalised groups.. We need appropriate architectures, tools, technology infrastructure and platforms, that make this not just possible, but simple. In this talk I offer some insights, some examples and many research challenges towards the goal of enabling exceptional experiences for everyone.
Inclusivity and AI: opportunity or threat
Keynote at 9th International Conference on Computing and Informatics (ICOCI 2023), "Nurturing an inclusive digital society for a sustainable nation", 13-14 September 2023, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
https://alandix.com/academic/talks/ICOCI2023-keynote/
AI is transforming many sectors of the economy and our day-today lives. We hear of success stories including medical advances, but also worries that AI will destroy jobs or even be an existential threat to humanity. We also know that for previous waves of technology – mechanical, electronic and digital – the costs and benefits do not fall equally to everyone in society. There are clear dangers that AI will further entrench existing power and deepen the digital divide: both at an individual level and globally. For example, training foundation models, such as GPT-4, requires enormous computational power and massive data sets accessible only to the largest corporations. However, the ways in which these can be used generatively in more niche areas, offers potential for minority languages and individualised learning that was previously only accessible to the rich. Whether the threats of AI or its opportunities dominate is not simply an abstract question, but one that impacts the most disadvantaged around us, and one that, as researchers and practitioners in digital technology, we can affect. If we truly want an inclusive digital society, then we need to make it happen.
Hidden Figures architectural challenges to expose parameters lost in code
Position paper presented at Engineering Interactive Systems Embedding AI Technologies at EICS 2023, Swansea, Wales, UK. 27 June. 2023.
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/EISEAIT2023-hidden/
Many critical user interaction design decisions are made in the heat of detailed development. These include simple parameter choices or more complex weightings in intelligent algorithms. Many would be appropriate for expert design review, user-preference choices or optimisation by machine learning, but they are buried deep in the code. Although the developer may realise this potential, the location of the decision is far removed in the code from where user feedback occurs, data can be collected and machine learning could be applied. This position paper describes several case studies and use them to frame an architectural challenge for tools and infrastructure to uncover these hidden variables to make them available for machine learning and user inspection.
ChatGPT, Culture and Creativity simulacrum and alterity
Keynote at Creative AI Research Conference 2023
https://alandix.com/academic/talks/CAR2023-keynote/
Over the years many of the ‘red lines’ of artificial intelligence have been crossed: challenges that were deemed to require uniquely human understanding. In 1997, chess fell as Deep Blue defeated Kasparov; then, twenty years later, AlphaGo beat Ke Jie, the world’s top Go player. Arguably, game playing can be considered artificial and formal, not representing the rich nuanced nature of human intelligence embodied in the real world. However, large language models have challenged these assumptions producing dialogue and texts that appear human – passing the Turing test . Furthermore, the text, and poems generated by ChatGPT and images created by DALL-E appear almost creative.
Has the last bastion fallen or is it merely the babbling of ‘stochastic parrots’? Is AI the ultimate charlatan peddling plagiarism or instead the child’s cry that reveals the emperor’s cloths of human creativity are sham? And what does it mean to be creative anyway?
I will attempt, if not to answer these deep questions, at least lay down some pointers. We will test the limits of the myth of the individual innate genius with inspiration gifted by the muses; and explore the way creativity is always embodied in culture and technology. Yet, while artists and philosophers debate, the child draws on.

Talk given as part of Online Seminars on Human Computer Interaction and User Experience
Presented by British Computer Society Interaction Group
and Interacting with Computers, 27 February 2023
https://alandix.com/academic/talks/BCS-IwC-Covid-Feb-2023/
This talk draws on diverse psychological, behavioural and numerical literature to understand some of the challenges we all face in making sense of large-scale phenomena and use this to create a roadmap for HCI responses. This body of research points the way toward current challenges and equips us with tools and principles that can help HCI researchers deliver value. The talk is framed by looking at patterns and information that highlight some of the common misunderstandings that arise – not just for politicians and the general public but also for those in the academic community’s heart. This talk does not have all the answers to this, but we hope it provides some and, perhaps more importantly, raises questions that we need to address as scientific and technical communities.
Beyond the Wireframe: tools to design, analyse and prototype physical devices
Keynote at Fifth European Tangible Interaction Studio, ENAC Toulouse. Nov. 7-10 2022.
https://alandix.com/academic/talks/ETIS2022-keynote/
For many years interaction design was driven by the abstractions of WIMP (windows, icons, menus, pointer). The details differ on desktop applications, web pages or smart-phones and the ‘pointer’ has evolved from mice to trackpad and touch-based interactions, however, for many digital applications, the central aspects are unchanged. What is different is that the screens we encounter, as Weiser predicted, are everywhere: embedded in physical appliances such as showers and toasters and situated in office walls and building facades. Furthermore, we are often engaging with digital applications that have no obvious screen or where the screen if present is only a small part of the interaction; these include voice assistants, semi-autonomous vehicles, and smart cities.
Even where the dominant interaction is focused on a screen, the places where we use them and the physical activities, we are doing fundamentally affect the nature of the interactive experience: using a smartphone while sitting in an armchair and watching television, is very different from thumbing a quick message whilst walking down a busy city road on a rainy night.
In this talk I will describe several design techniques and prototype tools that seek to address the physicality of digital interactions including the physical nature of the device itself and the physical context in which it is placed. This will include ‘soft’ formal methods to describe physical aspects of devices, ways to use video to model physical prototypes during early design and tools to encourage designers to keep the context of use in mind even when working on largely screen-based interactions.
The talk draws on some long-standing work, parts of the recently published book 'TouchIT: Understanding Design in a Physical-Digital World' (co-authored with Steve Gill, Devina Ramduny-Ellis, and Jo Hare) and the InContext project (in collaboration with Miriam Sturdee and Anna Carter). The latter arose from the realisation that despite the vast number of design tools available, nearly all focus entirely on the screen and wireframes. We are asking "what is the Next Generation of UX design tool?" – perhaps you would like to join this conversation.
Forever Cyborgs – a long view on physical-digital interaction
Keynote at the European Conference on Cognitive Ergonomics (ECCE 2022), Kaiserslautern, Germany, 7th Oct 2022.
https://alandix.com/academic/talks/ECCE2022-keynote/
From prehistory to the internet age, humans have always lived as part of a technologically mediated world. Knapped flints have given way to touch-screens, cuneiform to CSS, but in both rapid hand-eye coordination and long-term social interactions, our experiences and actions in the world are embedded in a physical, mechanical, symbolic and digital nexus. After far too long in the writing, my co-authors and I are delighted that "TouchIT: Understanding Design in a Physical-Digital World" is finally published – symbolic words, recorded in digital media and printed on physical paper. This book covers established and emergent digital technology, but repeatedly the continuity of current and past technology, physical and digital worlds is evident. The fundamental cognitive resources that enable our digital existence in an age of constant flux are the result of aeons of development in a physical world that we remake and reimagine. In this talk I will explore multiple scales of digital interaction from seconds to years, informed by and illuminating what it means to be a fully embodied and richly reflective human.

High performance Serverless Java on AWS- GoTo Amsterdam 2024
Java is for many years one of the most popular programming languages, but it used to have hard times in the Serverless community. Java is known for its high cold start times and high memory footprint, comparing to other programming languages like Node.js and Python. In this talk I'll look at the general best practices and techniques we can use to decrease memory consumption, cold start times for Java Serverless development on AWS including GraalVM (Native Image) and AWS own offering SnapStart based on Firecracker microVM snapshot and restore and CRaC (Coordinated Restore at Checkpoint) runtime hooks. I'll also provide a lot of benchmarking on Lambda functions trying out various deployment package sizes, Lambda memory settings, Java compilation options and HTTP (a)synchronous clients and measure their impact on cold and warm start times.

GNSS spoofing via SDR (Criptored Talks 2024)
In the realm of cybersecurity, offensive security practices act as a critical shield. By simulating real-world attacks in a controlled environment, these techniques expose vulnerabilities before malicious actors can exploit them. This proactive approach allows manufacturers to identify and fix weaknesses, significantly enhancing system security.
This presentation delves into the development of a system designed to mimic Galileo's Open Service signal using software-defined radio (SDR) technology. We'll begin with a foundational overview of both Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and the intricacies of digital signal processing.
The presentation culminates in a live demonstration. We'll showcase the manipulation of Galileo's Open Service pilot signal, simulating an attack on various software and hardware systems. This practical demonstration serves to highlight the potential consequences of unaddressed vulnerabilities, emphasizing the importance of offensive security practices in safeguarding critical infrastructure.

TENNs demonstrate exceptional proficiency in handling multi-dimensional streaming data, facilitating advancements in object detection, action recognition, speech enhancement and language model/sequence generation. Through the utilization of polynomial-based continuous convolutions, TENNs streamline models, expedite training processes and significantly diminish memory requirements, achieving notable reductions of up to 50x in parameters and 5,000x in energy consumption compared to prevailing methodologies like transformers.
Integration with BrainChip’s Akida neuromorphic hardware IP further enhances TENNs’ capabilities, enabling the realization of highly capable, portable and passively cooled edge devices. This presentation delves into the technical innovations underlying TENNs, presents real-world benchmarks, and elucidates how this cutting-edge approach is positioned to revolutionize edge AI across diverse applications.JavaLand 2024: Application Development Green Masterplan

"$10 thousand per minute of downtime: architecture, queues, streaming and fin...
Direct losses from downtime in 1 minute = $5-$10 thousand dollars. Reputation is priceless.
As part of the talk, we will consider the architectural strategies necessary for the development of highly loaded fintech solutions. We will focus on using queues and streaming to efficiently work and manage large amounts of data in real-time and to minimize latency.
We will focus special attention on the architectural patterns used in the design of the fintech system, microservices and event-driven architecture, which ensure scalability, fault tolerance, and consistency of the entire system.
zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

-Daniel Roesler, UtilityAPI
-Henry Richardson, WattTime
In response to the urgency and scale required to effectively address climate change, open source solutions offer significant potential for driving innovation and progress. Currently, there is a growing demand for standardization and interoperability in energy data and modeling. Open source standards and specifications within the energy sector can also alleviate challenges associated with data fragmentation, transparency, and accessibility. At the same time, it is crucial to consider privacy and security concerns throughout the development of open source platforms.
This webinar will delve into the motivations behind establishing LF Energy’s Carbon Data Specification Consortium. It will provide an overview of the draft specifications and the ongoing progress made by the respective working groups.
Three primary specifications will be discussed:
-Discovery and client registration, emphasizing transparent processes and secure and private access
-Customer data, centering around customer tariffs, bills, energy usage, and full consumption disclosure
-Power systems data, focusing on grid data, inclusive of transmission and distribution networks, generation, intergrid power flows, and market settlement data
Mutation Testing for Task-Oriented Chatbots
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.
