The area of Human Computer Interaction, HCI, especially handles several usability aspects. This degree project emphasizes HCI in a context of, so called, Smart House. The report is divided into three main sections: theory, application, and measurement results. In the theory section we will present about the context of HCI and the content of HCI, such as HCI model and goals of HCI design. In the application section we discuss the use of mobile phones as a device to remotely control devices of smart houses, and present a system developed to support such services. In order to make the system more attractive, we decided to design it for two categories of operations, menu operation and direct-touch operation mode. Finally, we have used questionnaires for reasons of measuring user satisfaction. Through investigation and analysis of the result of this, we come to the conclusion that system usability is good.

Interaction, is an exciting and important area of computer science. It combines the physical, logical, conceptual, and language-based interactions between the human user and the computer for achieving some goals[14]. As other subjects, HCI is developed in order to meet the demand of human life. At the same time, the advance of computer technology is also promoting the development. In the 1980s, with the development of ergonomics, cognitive psychology, Artificial Intelligence and so on. Human Computer Interaction design and development has become one of the most popular topics in the computer world. In 1982 the ACM (Association for Computing Machinery) established SIGCHI (Special Interest Group on Human-Computer Interaction). The Association for Computing Machinery defines human-computer interaction as "a discipline concerned with the design, evaluation and implementation of interactive computing systems for human use and with the study of major phenomena surrounding them."[26] Since then the Human-computer interaction field has gone through nearly 30 years of development. Meanwhile, the new technology has been emerging continuously and the fields of HCI research have combined into a new subject: Interaction design. Human-computer interaction as an independent and important research area received the attention of the world computer industry. To a considerable extent, HCI now aggregates a collection of semi-distinct fields of research and practice in human-centered informatics[17]. It became another competitive field in 90 years in the computer industry. The improvements in computer technology that HCI technology also led the development of related software and hardware technology. It is a successful guarantee of new generation computer systems. 1.1.1 The History of Human Computer Interaction technology Human-Computer Interaction has gone through what many things do for adaptation

  • A Review of User Interface Design for Interactive Machine Learning
    1 A Review of User Interface Design for Interactive Machine Learning JOHN J. DUDLEY, University of Cambridge, United Kingdom PER OLA KRISTENSSON, University of Cambridge, United Kingdom Interactive Machine Learning (IML) seeks to complement human perception and intelligence by tightly integrating these strengths with the computational power and speed of computers. The interactive process is designed to involve input from the user but does not require the background knowledge or experience that might be necessary to work with more traditional machine learning techniques. Under the IML process, non-experts can apply their domain knowledge and insight over otherwise unwieldy datasets to find patterns of interest or develop complex data driven applications. This process is co-adaptive in nature and relies on careful management of the interaction between human and machine. User interface design is fundamental to the success of this approach, yet there is a lack of consolidated principles on how such an interface should be implemented. This article presents a detailed review and characterisation of Interactive Machine Learning from an interactive systems perspective. We propose and describe a structural and behavioural model of a generalised IML system and identify solution principles for building effective interfaces for IML. Where possible, these emergent solution principles are contextualised by reference to the broader human-computer interaction literature. Finally, we identify strands of user interface research key to unlocking more efficient and productive non-expert interactive machine learning applications.

  • THE COMPUTER SCIENCE with HCI
    IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering (IOSR-JCE) e-ISSN: 2278-0661,p-ISSN: 2278-8727 PP 52-54 www.iosrjournals.org THE COMPUTER SCIENCE with HCI Shubhangi M. Sherekar1 1(shubhangi.sherekar@rediffmail.com, Dept of Computer Science, Shivaji Science College, Nagpur, India) Abstract: The intention of this paper is to provide an overview on the subject of Computer science with Human computer Interaction. Human computer interaction (HCI) is the study of people design, implement, and use interactive computer systems. In this paper we study why do human uses computing system? , what do human uses computing system for? And the computer science of HCI. Keywords: Human Computer Interaction, computing system, computer science of HCI. I. INTRODUCTION Human–computer interaction (HCI) is the study of interaction between people (users) and computers. It is often regarded as the intersection of computer science, behavioral sciences, design and several other fields of study. Interaction between users and computers occurs at the rapid growth of computing has made effective human-computer interaction essential. Increased attention to usability is also driven by competitive pressures for greater productivity, the need to reduce frustration, and to reduce overhead costs such as user training. As computing affects more aspects of our lives the need for usable systems becomes even more important. II. HUMAN-COMPUTER INTERACTION: The Association for Computing Machinery defines human-computer interaction as "a discipline concerned with the design, evaluation and implementation of interactive computing systems for human use and with the study of major phenomena surrounding them. Because human-computer interaction studies a human and a machine in conjunction, it draws from supporting knowledge on both the machine and the human side.

  • Interactivity: a Review of the Concept and a Framework for Analysis
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Open Access LMU Interactivity: A review of the concept and a framework for analysis OLIVER QUIRING and WOLFGANG SCHWEIGER Abstract The terms ‘interactivity’ and ‘interactive media’ became significant buzz- words during the late 1980s and early 1990s when the multi-media euphoria fascinated politicians, economists, and researchers alike. However, right from the beginning of the scientific debate, the inconsistent usage of the term ‘interactivity’ massively complicated the comparability of numerous empirical studies. This is where this article joins the discussion. First, the article sheds light on the terminological origins of ‘interactivity’ and distin- guishes the term from cognate expressions. Further, it restructures and ex- tends existing findings on the basis of a new analysis framework which considers three levels of interactive communication (action level, level of subjective situation evaluation, and level of meaning exchange). Finally, it delivers a systematic overview of specific criteria of interactive communica- tion. Keywords: interactivity, framework, computer-mediated-communication, human-machine interaction, Internet, media use Introduction ‘Interactivity’ and ‘interactive media’ became significant buzzwords dur- ing the late 1980s and early 1990s when the multi-media euphoria fasci- nated politicians, economists, and researchers alike. During the last de- cade this multimedia euphoria of the early days slowed down distinctly although new technologies were developed continuously. The term ‘inter- active’ was used less frequently but constantly within communication science publications. The term as well as the idea of ‘interactivity’ has, despite some pioneer articles (e. g., Durlak, 1987; Rafaeli, 1988; Heeter, 1989; Steuer, 1992), not been explained satisfactorily so far.

  • The Analysis of Interactive Media and Digital Culture
    INVESTIGACIONES / RESEARCH l Jorge Mora Received: 23-01-2012 / Reviewed: 18-03-2012 Accepted: 03-04-2012 / Published: 01-10-2012 San Diego (USA) / Guadalajara (Mexico) DOI: 10.3916/C39-2012-03-04 The Analysis of Interactive Media and Digital Culture - Hypermedia Literacy in Peru and Bolivia Medios interactivos y cultura digital: Alfa betización hipermedia en Perú y Bolivia ABSTRACT This paper compiles data on how the use of hypermedia, interactive multimedia and interfaces have changed the classical dynamics of human communications and education to create a new paradigm. This paradigm originates in the interface since it allows multidirectional and multimedia communications through interactions with the elements of which it is composed. This research describes the different aesthetic, narrative, emotional and value elements that are integrated within the cultural hypermedia interfaces. These hypermedia elements are fundamental components to be taken into account in the creation of educational interactive media products. The communicative functions are interchangeable between sender-receptor, author-reader-author, creator-user, professor-student... thanks to the introduction of multimedia interactive expressions and technological instruments that allow several types of interac- tions. This flexible functionality generates new communicative as well as dramatic models of interactive narrative, where the interaction of receptors-senders and reader-authors with the narrative actions occur at the character or avatar level. The interfacial aesthetic, narrative, emotional and value elements are studied, analyzed and described in detail thanks to an innovative model of analysis that can be used to for the implementation and design of interactive edutainment media products. The application of this model helped to create cultural content interfaces enabling not only the development of interactive educational workshops in the USA, Peru and Bolivia for more than 200 students, but also multisensory and immersive communications with quality.

  • Information, Interactivity, and Social Media
    Atlantic Journal of Communication, 23:19–30, 2015 Copyright © Taylor & Francis Group, LLC ISSN: 1545-6870 print/1545-6889 online DOI: 10.1080/15456870.2015.972404 Information, Interactivity, and Social Media Yaron Ariel and Ruth Avidar Department of Communication The Max Stern Yezreel Valley College The aim of this paper is to provide a conceptual theoretical framework to the term “social” in a social media context. This is done by exploring the relationship between three central terms in a social media environment: information, interactivity, and sociability. We suggest a model that describes the relations between these terms in a social media context. As the model suggests, information is the basic unit of a communication process, but social media users are the ones that decide whether and how much information to share, and when and whether to comment on a social media platform. Hence, not solely the technological features of a platform determine its level of interactivity and sociability, but the actual performances of its users. Over the last decade, the equilibrium point of the web has shifted from top-down platforms that replicated mass media toward user-driven online platforms. At present, popular mainstream online platforms are uniformly tagged as “social media”—from social network sites like Facebook, Twitter, and Google Plus to Wikipedia and YouTube. Frequently, social media is considered an inherent element of Web 2.0 (Kaplan & Haenlein, 2010), a term coined by O’Reilly (2007) to describe the development of new platforms, features, and uses that build on users’ participation in the form of user-generated content, decentralization, and rich user experience.
