Integrating web analysis in the user experience design processinternetarchitects
Measuring has become more and more important to the job of the information architect.
* We need to measure the KPI's of our projects to assure we meet our customers business objectives.
* We need to measure the usage of the site to assure it's effectiveness.
* We need to measure the users behaviour on the site so we can optimize the information architecture to meet their needs.
* We need to measure business parameters such as sales numbers, conversion rates, ... and compare them to the traffic analysis.
Measuring becomes essential to define what we do but also to define why we do it. We need to justify and document the effect our work has on the overall business. A new generation of tools allows us to integrate data from traffic analysis, CRM, ERP, with our traditional work of defining navigations, taxonomies, content organization, etc.
Most usability tests only include a small sample of users meanwhile there is data available on all of our visitors behaviours, we need to exploit this data and use it to define and refine the overall user experience of our online projects.

It then discusses how information architecture is practiced on campus, including staffing, evangelism efforts, and the importance of professional development opportunities to build expertise among web staff.
The document discusses web services at a university. It notes limited staff and a lack of consistency across the 200+ websites. There is no uniform branding, shared content, or centralized training. The structure is based on campus organization rather than audience needs. Audiences want quick access to relevant information but find it difficult to navigate across compartmentalized sites with different editing methods and terminology. Moving forward, the web services team aims to improve consistency, focus on audience needs through centralized content and forms, and increase training opportunities.

The document discusses modernizing a university's internal communications system. It describes the challenges with the old custom-coded email newsletter system, which was costly and time-intensive. The new system created uses a create once, publish everywhere (COPE) model combining custom code, WordPress sites, an open-source RSS platform, and a cloud-based mass email provider. This allows content to be entered once and distributed across multiple channels. The new system cost $2,000 and took two weeks to launch, providing a 91% reduction in time and costs compared to the old solution.

Cusestarter or How We Built Our Own Crowdfunding Platformhannonhill
The document discusses building a crowd funding site called CuseFunder for small projects at Syracuse University. It proposes using micro-donations to engage young alumni by giving small, affordable amounts to support tangible goals. Rather than using external sites, the university could build its own site using existing payment processors and technologies like Oracle, SQL Server, Node.js, Cascade, and Angular.js. This would allow the university to maintain control over messaging, branding, and tracking donors. Sample small projects of $5,000-15,000 are suggested focused on tangible items that can be purchased.

Web Forms, or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Web Serviceshannonhill
The document discusses using web forms and web services to collect and report user data instead of databases. It describes the author's journey from using FileMaker and Terascript to Ruby on Rails to Google Forms. Web forms provide a way to engage users, collect data, and leverage user-generated content through reports. The author proposes using Cascade, an interface for viewing database records and reports, to output data from web forms to CSV files. Examples are provided of building PHP web services to integrate with Cascade for reporting user data from web forms while addressing considerations like server performance and changing data definitions.
Outputting Their Full Potential: Using Outputs for Site Redesigns andDevelo...hannonhill
This document discusses using Cascade outputs to facilitate site redesigns and development code repositories. It describes setting up separate "redesign" and "dev" outputs within the current Cascade site to develop and test changes without affecting live content. It also recommends creating a separate "global" Cascade site to house template-level web assets to prevent unintended publishing of unfinished changes. The outputs and sites allow developing changes independently while providing access to live content and architectures.
The document discusses redesigning a website in two phases: planning and implementation. The planning phase involves evaluating the site's purpose and content, auditing content to remove irrelevant parts, and involving content editors. The implementation phase adds a new design output, updates formats and blocks, and publishes the new design live after testing. The redesign process aims to take advantage of new technologies, unclutter the site, and rebrand for improved appeal.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
