Abstract Dam removal is widely used as an approach for river restoration in the United States. The increase dam removals—particularly large dams—and associated dam‐removal studies over last few decades motivated a working group at USGS John Wesley Powell Center Analysis and Synthesis to review synthesize available of removals their findings. Based on thus far, some general conclusions have emerged: (1) physical responses are typically fast, with rate sediment erosion largely dependent...

This workshop will explore a diversity of perspectives on Patterns and Languages for HCI as well the requirements software tools needed to improve effectiveness both pattern creation use. Through discussion conceptual methodological issues why (and how) patterns are identified in what circumstances they useful design process we hope map out landscape patterns. By moving closer examining pattern-related behavior experiences identify make progress through that landscape.
Two distinctly different methods of expressing database queries were compared to evaluate differences in their difficulty. One method was a standard query language, SQL, while the second only required subjects be able make use tables representing sample databases. Clear emerged subject performance. Regression techniques demonstrated an association between performance and set cognitive skills.

The merits of entry and selection interaction methods were compared using an airline flight reservation scenario with a relatively small data base. For both experienced inexperienced users, the most effective method was combined autocompletion (i.e., string completion). Users took least amount time to carry out tasks this also preferred it over without from either one-item menu or N-item menu. Entry not affected by increases in underlying base size. Both spelling difficulty level involved...
In this paper, we describe Iterative Development in the Field (IDF), a User-Centered Design approach for developing interactive applications. This is characterized by repeated evaluation and redesign cycles that are carried out throughout product life cycle, from initial discovery gathering of requirements to beyond deployment field. The based on use prototypes performed actual users We how IDF has evolved over past 13 years through experience gained four major projects offer set guidelines...
We view the design of interactive systems as a three-legged stool. The legs are: an understanding technology, users and use context, creative insight. As metaphor implies, if any is missing, stool will not stand. Although much work has gone into effort to develop tools methodologies enable programmers designers create outstanding applications, we believe hard truth that good requires skill, insight essential ingredient must be recognized supported. it difficult manage, plan for, control...
The contributions of human factors or usability practitioners to application development often begin with a functional specification handed down from an external source. User-centered design methods are commonly applied how function is delivered but not what functions will be delivered. We in the Interactive Transaction Systems (ITS) group at T.J. Watson Research Division IBM have succeeded, during several efforts, expanding scope our user-centered, iterative approaches include as well...
Five different human-computer interaction techniques were studied to determine the relative advantages of entry-based and selection-based methods. Gould, Boies, Meluson, Rasamny, Vosburgh (1988), found that entry aided by either automatic or requested string completion, superior various techniques. This study examines unaided as well techniques, compares them Variations in spelling difficulty database size for their effect on user performance preferences. The main results completion was...

This panel will explore the varied uses of prototyping in user interface design process. We expect to show that there is no single thing called “user prototyping” and differences are, many ways, greater than similarities. Panelists have been chosen represent a wide cross section tasks. Collectively, members experience hardware software, computer programs telecommunications services, residential, business, engineering applications, at various levels fidelity, all parts how these factors...
We examined the efficacy of providing dimensional feedback in user interface as people construct business rules. Business rules often involve objects that have dimensions (e.g., area, cost, weight) and may entail complex calculations on these objects. Such mathematical expressions are error prone. designed tested a novel utilizing analysis to provide advice expected dimensions, incorrect usage Experimental studies were carried out which subjects used create based word problems. In balanced...
Perhaps the one thing that user interface designers most want is tools will help them (a) quickly visualize their work; (b) carry it out more efficiently and faster; (c) do iterative design; (d) allow to work without need of programmers. An on-going research project (called ITS) responding these challenges by developing software for application development, together with providing a run-time environment execution. There are four key concepts. First, ITS separates style an from content...
