2. Department of Informatics, UC Irvine SDCL Collaboration Laboratory Software Design and sdcl.ics.uci.edu 2 Today’s lecture Reflection Steal, steal, steal…

3. Department of Informatics, UC Irvine SDCL Collaboration Laboratory Software Design and sdcl.ics.uci.edu 3 Design studio 3 Design a digital desk, cubicle, and wall for software developers This is to be a new product in an office furniture companies’ product line Given the enormous software development industry, they want to specifically target software developers

4. Department of Informatics, UC Irvine SDCL Collaboration Laboratory Software Design and sdcl.ics.uci.edu 4 Design studio 3 The company wants a design of the furniture (integration of technology with furniture) The company wants a design of the software – application design – interaction design – architecture design The company wants this to be feasible, and integrate well with existing software development environments The company wants it to provide a cutting edge experience that builds on novel yet useful functionality

5. Department of Informatics, UC Irvine SDCL Collaboration Laboratory Software Design and sdcl.ics.uci.edu 5 Design studio 3 – homework Work through all cards in each category – you may respond “not applicable” to some – you should use your network! Bring two copies of each sheet, bundled together – they have to be legible Bring back the box of envisioning cards – in its original shape – with all cards Bring your laptops

6. Department of Informatics, UC Irvine SDCL Collaboration Laboratory Software Design and sdcl.ics.uci.edu 6 Reflection How useful were the cards?

7. Department of Informatics, UC Irvine SDCL Collaboration Laboratory Software Design and sdcl.ics.uci.edu 7 Reflection How many of you divided up the cards?

8. Department of Informatics, UC Irvine SDCL Collaboration Laboratory Software Design and sdcl.ics.uci.edu 8 Reflection Who was in your “network” that you talked to?

9. Department of Informatics, UC Irvine SDCL Collaboration Laboratory Software Design and sdcl.ics.uci.edu 9 Reflection How useful was it to talk to your “network”?

10. Department of Informatics, UC Irvine SDCL Collaboration Laboratory Software Design and sdcl.ics.uci.edu 10 Reflection What did you learn from your “network” that you had not thought about?

11. Department of Informatics, UC Irvine SDCL Collaboration Laboratory Software Design and sdcl.ics.uci.edu 11 Reflection Overall, how would you rate your understanding of the design problem ahead of you?

12. Department of Informatics, UC Irvine SDCL Collaboration Laboratory Software Design and sdcl.ics.uci.edu 12 Reflection Overall, how would you rate your understanding of possible solutions?

13. Department of Informatics, UC Irvine SDCL Collaboration Laboratory Software Design and sdcl.ics.uci.edu 13 Design studio 3 – today It is time to “steal”, that is, find out what has already been done, what already is known, and what future circumstances may look like Use your laptop, surf, and bookmark

14. Department of Informatics, UC Irvine SDCL Collaboration Laboratory Software Design and sdcl.ics.uci.edu 14 Design studio 3 – possible directions to search What does the future of furniture look like? What does the future of display technology look like? What does a software developer’s physical work environment look like? What tasks do software developers engage in? What software components could you use? …

15. Department of Informatics, UC Irvine SDCL Collaboration Laboratory Software Design and sdcl.ics.uci.edu 15 Design studio 3 – possible places to search Vendor shows Trade literature Research literature New technology forums Corporate web sites …

16. Department of Informatics, UC Irvine SDCL Collaboration Laboratory Software Design and sdcl.ics.uci.edu 16 Design studio 3 – homework For each of the five questions (and others as you like), provide three findings that you think will influence your design – what does the future of furniture look like? – what does the future of display technology look like? – what does a software developer’s physical work environment look like? – what tasks do software developers engage in? – what software components could you use? Describe the findings, where you found them, and why you think they will influence your design
