CS575 - Human Issues in Computing Spring 2006 Purpose/Goal Analyse the impact that different GUI designs have on both users and software developers

CS575 - Human Issues in Computing Spring 2006 Strategy show the history of user interfaces discuss different types of User Interfaces how they are different how they are used how they are implemented

CS575 - Human Issues in Computing Spring 2006 Presentation Schedule First session – Intro History Modern User Interfaces Second Session - demos/analysis of different types Impacts on User Behaviour patterns Impacts on Software Design/Architecture Third Session – Future UI Technologies and their potential human impact Robert’s Perspective Ruben’s Perspective

CS575 - Human Issues in Computing CSULA Spring 2006 Intro … “For thirty years most interface design, and most computer design, has been headed down the path of the "dramatic" machine. Its highest ideal is to make a computer so exciting, so wonderful, so interesting, that we never want to be without it. A less-traveled path I call the "invisible"; its highest ideal is to make a computer so imbedded, so fitting, so natural, that we use it without even thinking about it.” – Mark Weiser

CS575 - Human Issues in Computing CSULA Spring 2006 Potential Impacts On End User Less dependence on traditional desktop/laptop? More natural Human to Computer Interaction? More Object to Object interface? i.e. – less human “middle object” Less tangible interaction between Humans e.g. – Picking up the phone to order pizza More convenience at the expense of mental exercise? Ethical Impact?

CS575 - Human Issues in Computing CSULA Spring 2006 Potential Impacts On Architect/Developer More Embedded type programming? Grid Computing paradigm? Web Services? Wireless Centric?

CS575 - Human Issues in Computing CSULA Spring 2006 Conclusion Regardless of changes in UI Technology the mainstay is the inevitable impact on Humans
