<p>Mobile Tole Playing Games (RPGs) are now very popular in gaming market. Still, we have great constraint in hardware provided such as screen size and interaction speed. Adopting techniques such as auto play enables the game designers to weaken the burdens of porting RPG scales to mobile platform. However, the interface design in mobile platform becomes quite different from PC based platform. In this paper, we investigate how user interface functionalities are provided for popular mobile RPGs based on google play downloaded between the year of 2014 and 2016. We analyze the commonalities and the differences of recent successful mobile RPGs first and take a user survey with heuristics. In result, subjects who are 16 ~ 25 in age weakly accept current interface layout and control as over 70% positive rate in 4 point Likert scale test.</p>

Software design and its engineering is essential for bioinformatics software impact. We propose a new approach ‘Butterfly’, for the betterment of modeling of scientific software solutions by targeting key developmental points: intuitive, graphical user interface design, stable methodical implementation and comprehensive output presentation. The focus of research was to address following three key points: 1) differences and different challenges required to change from traditional to scientific software engineering, 2) scientific software solution development needs feedback and control loops following basic engineering principles for implementation and 3) software design with new approach which helps in developing and implementing a comprehensive scientific software solution. We validated the approach by comparing old and new bioinformatics software solutions. Moreover, we have successfully applied our approach in the design and engineering of different well applied and published Bioinformatics and Neuroinformatics tools including DroLIGHT, LS-MIDA, Isotopo, Ant-App-DB, GenomeVX and Lipid-Pro.

Many mobile health applicationsincluding mobile heart monitoring applications are available on Apple App Store, and Google Play Store. However, when the user feels dissatisfied with the user interface design of the mobile heart monitoring application, it impacts user satisfaction level to the extent that the users do not use it anymore. User satisfaction level isa very important factor in usability to identify a mobile heart monitoring application whichis pleasant and comfortable forcontinuous use. This study recruited four cardiologists in a hospital in Palembang, Indonesia for evaluatingtheuser interface design ofa mobile heart monitoring prototype called HeartM. The prototype has several  features including measuringpatient’s heart rate and blood pressurerate, treatment record, forum, and chat to ease communication between heart patients and their cardiologist. The focus of the user interface design evaluation are oncontent, visual and navigation aspects.This paper contributes to user interface design knowledge and design recommendations particularly for mobile heart monitoring applications.

For control and regulation of hydraulic systems, especially, oil pumping stations, automatic pressure control systems (APCS) are used. Using it, the monitoring, controlling, and adjusting the operation of technological equipment, optimization of modes, and other tasks that require direct human participation become possible. The operator (or dispatcher) interacts with the system via a human-machine interface. The monitoring system includes programs for collecting, processing, displaying, and archiving information about the object of observation and control. Well-suited and being put to the right user interface design promotes not only the effective interaction of the operator with the system in normal conditions but also prevents errors and helps to find a solution in a dangerous or emergency swiftly. This paper presents a software package designed for real-time monitoring and regulation of pipeline operation. A system simulation model is provided for the teaching and training of site personnel.

Based on self-monitoring theory, this study integrates the constructs of group climate, game design, leadership self-efficacy, and leadership experiences to investigate leadership behavior in MMORPGs. The authors adopted questionnaires (138 samples) as a means to observe leadership behaviors in MMORPGs. The research results show that group climate, game design and leadership self-efficacy have a positive influence on leadership. From a theoretical viewpoint, the authors' studies confirm that leaders adjust and control their behavior according to what kind of group climate they perceive, how confidently they act as leaders and what functions are provided by the online game system. A practical implication of this study is that MMORPGs provide an opportunity for players to effectively and quickly learn leadership skills. The authors suggest that leaders who are lacking in social skills initiate social interactions with others on MMORPGs; this can help them develop leadership self-efficacy or manage their team through effective game designs.

This discussion paper outlines some of the decisions and issues involved in creating and using authoring tools for language learning through the World Wide Web. In it, we outline the development of Hot Potatoes, our suite of authoring tools, and attempt to draw conclusions from our experience that will be valuable not only to other developers but also to evaluators and users of authoring software. Areas addressed include exercise design, ability to customise and control the output, support for different browser versions, user-interface design, ancillary technology and technical support.
