Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Addressing the rising prevalence of interactive systems in our daily lives, this book focuses on the essential aspects of usability, user experience (UX), and inclusive design. This book Discusses both theoretical and practical aspects, approaches, and methods for the design process and the collaboration between HCI Design and Software Engineering. Expands to practical topics such as web and mobile design, aesthetics, information visu- alization, information architecture, and navigation design, along with relevant guidelines and standards. Tackles the issue of persuasive interfaces that has arisen as a crucial concern in the contemporary digitalized landscape. Emphasizes the importance of making computing systems inclusive and user-friendly for a diverse range of users, including children, older adults, and persons with disabilities. Highlights the significance of usability, underscoring its key role in enhancing the overall user experience of interactive products. This book has been written for individuals interested in Human-Computer Interaction research and applications. .

Book Synopsis Sustainable Design by : Tomayess Issa

Download or read book Sustainable Design written by Tomayess Issa. This book was released on 2022. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is concerned with the importance of Human Computer Interaction (HCI), Usability, user participants, and Sustainability in the Information Communication Technology (ICT) industry throughout the world. ICTs have become a crucial instrument for communication, entertainment, commerce and research and this increased usage is presenting new environmental and sustainability issues as we try and meet the ever-growing needs of both businesses and individuals. Sustainability and sustainable design must become central to the design of new technologies to make a concerted effort to tackle the environmental concerns we face now and in the future. Development frameworks, tools and models are used and explored, and the New Participative Methodology for Sustainable Design (NPMSD) is introduced as a way of identifying key factors needed in developing more sustainable systems including new smart technology and portable devices. In this book, the sustainable step in the design stage is evaluated and assessed by 11 countries: namely, Australia, Brazil, China, Germany, India, Norway, Singapore, South Korea, Sweden, UK, and USA. The new results are generated confirming that sustainable design awareness should be considered by designers, and users to minimize and reduce the carbon emissions, raw materials usage, and global warming, since these problems should be tackled soon, otherwise, it will be too late to solve it. Further research is needed in the future to implement and assess the sustainable design step with large IT companies to ensure compliance with environmental standards and rules for sustainable systems. Sustainable Design is an invaluable resource for students and researchers, designers and business managers who are interested in the human-centered, environmental concerns of sustainable technologies.

Book Synopsis Inclusive Design Guidelines for HCI by : Collette Nicolle

Download or read book Inclusive Design Guidelines for HCI written by Collette Nicolle. This book was released on 2001-06-28. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The elderly population is growing and disabilities tend to increase with age. Professionals in the field of human-computer interaction (HCI) are becoming increasingly aware of the needs of the elderly and people with disabilities. They also need to ensure that systems are designed for all, with specific consideration of these groups, not only computing systems but also other assistive and adaptive technologies such as information services and the use of smart cards, assistive robotics, systems for travellers, and home and environmental control systems. Designers need to monitor the latest developments in the design of HCI and to appreciate their impact on accessibility and usability.
