The design functionality put forward by mapping the interactiveness of information. The presentation of such information with the user interface model indicates that the guidelines, concepts, and workflows form the deliverables and milestones for achieving a visualized design, therefore forming the right trend is significant to ensure compliance in terms of changing consideration and applying evaluation in the early stages. It is evidenced that prototype design is guided by improvement specifications, includes modes, and variables that increase improvements. The study presents five user interface testing methods. The testing methods are heuristic evaluation, perspective-based user interface testing, cognitive walkthrough, pluralistic walkthrough, and formal usability inspection. It appears that the five testing methods can be combined and matched to produce reasonable results. At last, the study presents different mobile application designs for student projects besides the evaluation of mobile application designs to consider the user needs and usability.

Recently, usability has become very important in voice user interface systems. In this paper, we have designed and implemented a wizard-of-oz (WOZ) usability testing tool for command-and-control voice user interfaces. We have proposed the VUIDML (Voice User Interface Design Markup Language) to design the usability test scenario of command-and-control voice interfaces in the early design stages. For highly satisfactory voice user interfaces, we have to select highly preferred voice commands and prompts. In VUIDML, we can specify possible prompt candidates. The WOZ usability testing tool can also be used to collect user-preferred voice commands and feedback from real users.

Objective: The present study developed a comprehensive usability testing and analysis framework based on a physical interface model of product and user and applied the proposed framework to usability testing of canister-type vacuum cleaner. Background: The development of a user-centered product design is important to satisfy customers who want to use the product with ease of use and to keep the manufacturer competitive in the market. Method: The proposed testing and analysis framework consists of (1) characterization of physical product-user interface, (2) preparation and administration of usability testing questionnaire, and (3) analysis and interpretation of usability testing results. A usability evaluation of five vacuum cleaners was planned and administered based on the proposed framework and its analysis produced detailed and overall usability testing results for various aspects such as tasks, usability criteria, and design components. Results: The testing results were further utilized to identify usability problems and preferred design features of the vacuum cleaners. Conclusion: The proposed usability testing and analysis framework was found effective to identify preferred features and problems of a product design in a systematic, holistic manner. Application: The proposed framework can be of effective use for practitioners of product design and development to obtain comprehensive, quantitative usability testing information in a systematic manner.

본 논문에서는 외국어 학습 영역인 영어 듣기와 말하기 평가를 웹과 VoiceXML 기반 교육 평가 시스템을 이용하여 장소와 시간적 제한을 받지 않고 평가하는 방법을 연구하였다. VoiceXML 기반교육 평가 시스템은 사용자 등록 모듈, 평가 모듈, 평가 결과 모듈로 구성된다. 사용자 등록 모듈은 사용자 이름과 아이디, 비밀번호를 사용자 데이터베이스에 등록하여, 학습자가 평가를 하기 위해 전화를 했을 때 vxml 시나리오에 의해 제공되어지는 음성을 듣고 로그인을 하여 사용자를 확인할 수 있도록 하였다. VoiceXML 기반 전화 평가 시스템에서 출제자는 문제 출제와 평가, 평가 결과를 얻기 위한 시간, 노력을 경감할 수 있으며, 학습자는 언제 어디서나 유무선 전화기를 이용하여 VoiceXML 마크업 언어로 제공되는 시나리오에 의해 대화형 음성으로 제공되는 평가 문항을 듣고 직접 음성으로 평가함으로써 외국어 학습에 대한 효과를 올릴 수 있다.

On this research, we show some concrete examples as software design, 2D/3D display, graph display, and gage display to develop a data monitoring system for real time safe fire testing. Developed software which is simulation software for live fire testing, has been designed to display informations about whole test status in a live fire testing, and with this, user can control a live fire testing under the safe environment. Beside, we increase a security by using a authority of user to access on this software. and we develop it based on module designed to apply a requirement of user later on.

Object-oriented development methodologies require consistent and seamless object-oriented paradigm to be applied from analysis to testing. Testing must focuses on the state of aggregated objects. This paper suggests testing methods that satisfy such requirements. In order to confirm appropriate implementation of the user requirements, the methods apply extended use case[Jacobson et al., 1992] that are prepared form analysis stage. Testing must be performed based on the use cases because the user requirements are formally documented in the use cases. The notations of the original use case are modified for the state-based testings. The testing methods consist of a unit testing and four-level of integration testing. Particularly, the level 0 testing is based on FREE state machine [Binder, 1995, 1996]. The testing methods have been applied to 3 projects and proved their practicability.

온라인 게임은 유저에게 다양한 재미 경험을 주는 하드웨어와 소프트웨어를 근간으로 하는 토탈 제품이다. 이러한 제품은 기업에게 이윤을 창출 하며 게임사용자에게는 만족스러운 서비스를 동시에 총족시켜야 한다. 그러므로 게임 제작과정에서 게임테스트 부분은 다양한 방법과 검증을 통해 게임사용자에게 만족할 만한 콘텐츠를 제공하기 위한 필수과정이라고 할 수 있다. 즉, 게임테스트가 전문적인 직무 담당자를 통해서 체계적으로 이루어진다면 게임의 완성도를 높일 수 있으며 안정적인 상용화 서비스를 시행할 수 있다. 이에 본 연구는 전문적인 테스트 직무에 대한 범위와 테스트 과정의 사례를 정량적으로 제시하여 테스트 직무에 대한 체계적인 과정을 제안 하였다.

The main objective of our research is analyzing user's emotional changes while using a product, to reveal the influence of usability on human emotions. In this study we have extracted some emotional words that can come up during user interaction with a product and reveal emotional changes through three methods. Finally, we extracted 88 emotional words for measuring user's emotions expressed while using products. And we categorized the 88 words to form 6 groups by using factor analysis. The 6 categories that were extracted as a result of this study were found to be user's representative emotions expressed while using products. It is expected that emotional words and user's representative emotions extracted in this study will be used as subjective evaluation data that is required to measure user's emotional changes while using a product. Also, we proposed the effective methods for measuring user's emotion expressed while using a product in the environment which is natural and accessible for the field of design, by using the emotion mouse and the Eyegaze. An examinee performs several tasks with the emotion mouse through the mobile phone simulator on the computer monitor connected to the Eyegaze. While testing, the emotion mouse senses user's EDA and PPG and transmits the data to the computer. In addition, the Eyegaze can observe the change of pupil size. And a video camera records user's facial expression while testing. After each testing, a subjective evaluation on the emotional changes expressed by the user is performed by the user him/herself using the emotional words extracted from the above study. We aim to evaluate the satisfaction level of usability of the product and compare it with the actual experiment results. Through continuous studies based on these researches, we hope to supply a basic framework for the development of interface with consideration to the user's emotions.

많은 사용성 평가 방법들, 특히 실험실 기반의 사용성 평가방법이 사용자 인터페이스 개발을 위해 광범위하게 활용되고 있다. 그러나 이러한 사용성 평가 방법들을 수행하기 위해서는 많은 비용과 시간, 노력이 필요하며, 더 나아가 부자연스러운 실험 환경으로 인한 부작용과 사용자들의 직접적인 참여의 부족 등과 같은 여러 가지 문제점들을 가지고 있다. 본 연구는 이러한 문제점들을 해결하기 위해 카드소팅 기법을 기본으로 하는 웹 기반의 참여적 도구를 개발하였다. 개발된 참여적 도구는 사용자들이 자신의 컴퓨터 운용 환경에서 웹을 통하여 자연스럽게 카드소팅 테스트에 참여할 수 있도록 고안되었다. 사용자들은 인터페이스 요소들로 구성된 카드들을 컴퓨터 스크린 상에서 드래깅하고 그룹핑 함으로써 자신만의 인터페이스 구조를 구성할 수 있다. 따라서 해당 웹사이트의 구조에 대해 자신이 가지고 있는 멘탈모델을 자연스럽게 표현해낼 수 있다. 또한 사용자들이 테스트에 참여하는 과정 중에 생성된 모든 데이터들은 자료 수집을 위한 원격 서버에 자동으로 전송되어 저장된다. 본 연구에서 개발된 도구의 활용을 통해 웹 디자이너들은 많은 시간과 노력이 소모되는 번거로운 과정을 거치지 않고도 보다 효과적인 카드소팅 테스트를 수행할 수 있다. 따라서 인포메이션 아키텍처를 설계하는 과정에서 실제 사용자들의 적극적인 참여를 이끌어내기 위한 효과적인 도구로 활용할 수 있을 젓이다.
