The document discusses the five planes of user experience in designing a website:
1. The surface plane is the visible web pages made up of images, text, and interactive elements like buttons.
2. The skeleton plane is the placement of these surface elements for optimal arrangement and usability.
3. The structure plane defines how users navigate between pages and site sections.
4. The scope plane outlines the site's features and functions.
5. The strategy plane determines scope based on both business and user objectives like sales, browsing, and a good customer experience.

The Elements of User Experience provides an outline of all the factors that contribute to an overall user experience (UX), including Information Architecture, Usability Engineering, and Interaction Design. These elements affect how people perceive your brand, form opinions about your company’s trustworthiness, or feel persuaded by your message. Created by Malcolm Wolter, BrandExtract VP of Digital
A basic duality: The Web was originally conceived as a hypertextual information space;
but the development of increasingly sophisticated front- and back-end technologies has
fostered its use as a remote software interface. This dual nature has led to much confusion,
as user experience practitioners have attempted to adapt their terminology to cases beyond
the scope of its original application. The goal of this document is to define some of these
terms within their appropriate contexts, and to clarify the underlying relationships among
these various elements.

User-centered design: A road map to usabilityWill Sansbury
Nobody ever set out to build a Web site that’s difficult to use. Even so, many sites prove to be frustrating for the very people they’re built to serve. When we design without a clear and proven understanding of the site’s audience–or with our own preferences and biases unchecked–we put the overall usability and effectiveness of the site at jeopardy.
In this presentation, Will Sansbury overviews user-centered design, a process that infuses concern for the audience into every step of creating a site or software product. He shares practical tools for learning about your audience initially, checking your decisions against your understanding of the audience throughout the design process, and gauging the effectiveness of your final design using qualitative usability testing.
As an information architect on the WhatsUp Gold team at Ipswitch, Will has experimented with integrating user experience design into the Scrum software development process. Because he’s a practitioner first, he has a pragmatic, from-the-trenches view that makes user experience and user-centered design approachable to designers and developers of all skill levels.

The 'Aha' Moment: How Great Designs Play With Our Psychology?Logo Design Guru
We, as humans, respond differently to different elements of design. Different colors, shapes, typefaces – all create an interaction of association that is individual. Thus, a skilled designer is one who can employ each of these elements effectively, playing into the psychology of it’s viewers, and infer particular characteristics of a brand, to the target audience.
Experience Themes: An Element of Story Applied to DesignCindy Chastain
This presentation was presented at IA Summit 09 in Memphis, TN. It explores a new way of thinking about holistic design, by envisioning experience themes at the start of project.
An Experience Theme is basically an over-arching statement or phrase that encapsulates the value and focus of the experience we intend to deliver to users.
It may sound like a strategy or "vision", but at its core, an Experience Theme identifies what the product/service/system is all about from the point of view of users engaging with the product.
Once agreed upon, the theme can not only be used as a conceptual frame for design solutions, but can serve as the foundation for the Product Concept and Experience Strategy, a clear set of goals for the product/service/system design.
The slides explore how this idea was developed in the context of an interactive agency and how it was applied to several projects. It also shows how teams can generate experience themes.
And it's only one small part of a larger conversation about what user experience design can learn from storytelling. Enjoy... Thanks for your comments!

Slides from a talk I did at Web Directions South in Sydney Oct 2009.
Outline:
Designing for dynamic web applications and mobile devices poses a new set of challenges. Web designers are increasingly being asked to apply their skills to where the page model no longer applies. We need new ways of exploring the user experience and communicating behaviours involving sub-page changes and movement.
Enter rapid prototyping. Widely acclaimed as one of the best ways to create great user experiences, it isn't without it's own pitfalls. This session will discuss the pros and cons of different prototyping techniques, and introduce a new technique called "screenflows" that focuses on visualising the user experience.
Discover how to combine the best of paper prototyping, wireframes and HTML prototyping into one simple and effective prototyping technique. Learn how using this method can dramatically decrease the need for documentation, while increasing the speed and agility of the development process.

The patient to get reminders when they are running out of their medicine - so they could buy more when they are running low, how long more they are going to continue the treatment, have an easy accessible history of all their treatments that they were submitted in the past, and even be able to see if their love ones are taking their medicine as they should. For example, a worried woman worried if her mother is taking all the medicines that she should.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
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.

3. SURFACE
PLANE
On the surface you see a series of web pages, made up of images and
text. Some of these images are things you can click on, performing some
sort of function such as taking you to a shopping cart. Some of these
images are just illustrations, such as a photograph of a book cover or the
logo of the site itself.
10. colors
Main: Blue and Black
Negative Space: White and Gray
New Products: Green
Sales: Red
Best Sellers: Purple
MoMA Exclusive: Orange
11. SKELETON
PLANE
Beneath that surface is the skeleton of the site: the placement of
buttons, tabs, photos, and blocks of text. The skeleton is designed to
optimize the arrangement of these elements for maximum effect and
efficiency—so that you remember the logo and can find that shopping
cart button when you need it.
17. STRUCTURE
PLANE
The structure is a more abstract skeleton of the site. The skeleton might
define the placement of the elements on the page; the structure would
define how users got to that page and where they could go when they
were finished there. The skeleton might define the arrangement of
navigational items allowing the users to browse categories; the structure
would define what those categories actually were.
22. SCOPE
PLANE
The structure defines the way in which the various features and
functions of the site fit together. Just what those features and functions
are constitutes the scope of the site. Some sites that sell books
offer a feature that enables users to save previously used addresses
so they can be used again. The question of whether that feature—or
any feature—is included on a site is a question of scope.
23. SCOPE PLANE
• Products • Order Status/History
• Categories • Newsletter
• Login/Account • FAQ
• Join • Customer Service
• Cart/Checkout • Moma.org
• Search • Facebook
• Registry
• Favorites
• What’s popular
• Customer Reviews
• Related Items
• You/Other people may also like(d)
• Stores Info
• Museum Info
24. STRATEGY
PLANE
The scope is fundamentally determined by the strategy of the site.
This strategy incorporates not only what the people running the site
want to get out of it but what the users want to get out of the site as
well. In the case of our bookstore example, some of the strategic
objectives are pretty obvious: Users want to buy books, and we want
to sell them. Other objectives might not be so easy to articulate.
25. STRATEGY PLANE
MoMa Design Store Strategic Objectives:
• Generate sales of design store items
• Increase sales by suggesting items that users may like, based on their
browsing history
• Display appealing photography of items for sale
• Provide a user friendly experience, to encourage customers to return
User Objectives:
• Purchase uniquely designed objects for oneself for as a gift
• Easily browse items to make the perfect selection
• Receive as much detailed information about the objects as possible
• Sort items based on different criteria (i.e. price)
• Hassle free returns and/or a satisfaction guarantee
