Magic Layouts: Structural Prior for Component Detection in User Interface Designs

Banyuwangi Regency has a new innovation called " Lahir Procot Pulang Bawa Akta " which in this innovation is realized in the form of an Online Deed Website. Every information technology has an interface that can be a link between the user and the technology itself. Interface formation is influenced by needs, and information technology has different interface designs according to the needs of its users. The User Interface has the aim of making it easier for users to operate information technology that can make users feel comfortable using the application or technology. Heuristic Evaluation is one of the Usability evaluation methods that can be used to determine the extent to which a system is used by users to achieve certain goals with effectiveness, efficiency and satisfaction. This research is a research that is focused on the use of Heuristic Evaluation based on user interface design aspects of application usability through observation, interviews and questionnaires to users.

Interface Designs

Rapid interface prototyping (RIP) involves the simulation of potential user-interface designs for demonstrating and evaluating design concepts and iteratively modifying the interface designs without the burden of labor-intensive code generation and modification. In the past few years, many interface designers have had to use expensive equipment to help them perform RIP. Well, thanks to Bill Atkinson and the folks at Apple Computer Inc., you can purchase HyperCard® 1 software for your Macintosh® 2 for $49 and use it right out of the box for many of your RIP projects, without need of additional hardware (just add a cup of creativity). A special feature of HyperCard® allows the designer to create software-controlled buttons which, along with the graphics capabilities and the layering properties, permit the dynamic simulation of virtually any control panel that can be operated by discrete user inputs. Changes to the prototype can be made very rapidly (almost instantly) by an experienced HyperCard® user, making it possible to modify an existing prototype “on-line” in a design meeting. This paper will describe this serendipitous application of HyperCard®, its potential as an equipment-interface design tool, and describe how it was used to simulate the user interface for a weapons field tester, designed at Sandia.

Interface Designs

This article discusses the question of interaction in corporate e-learning. I will define the three kinds of interaction in Moore’s model, explain the value of interactivity in learning, evaluate the benefits and limitations of using interactions, discuss the differences and similarities among learning through computers, learning from computers and learning with computers. Interaction takes on distinctive meanings in different contexts. Interaction is found in computer games, e-commerce sites, user-interface designs, online media, and education. Users have experienced interactions that set their expectations and definitions. The different experiences create challenges for instructional design experts because they muddy the definition and establish expectations regarding interactions that may not have direct transference to interactive online learning.
