CIT10813X Human Computer Interaction HUMAN COMPUTER INTERACTION | Week 3 - Natural Computing and Interaction NATURAL COMPUTING  NATURAL COMPUTING The study of how people process and store information, manipulate symbols, ascribe personal values to events, attribute cultural and emotive judgments. Source: Smith-Atakan, Serengul. (2006). Human Computer Interaction  NATURAL COMPUTING Information processing is just one of the capabilities of the human brain. The main idea of natural computing is that information processing is a natural process for us. Source: Smith-Atakan, Serengul. (2006). Human Computer Interaction  ASPECTS OF NATURAL COMPUTING USER DESIGNER SUSTAINABILITY  ASPECTS OF NATURAL COMPUTING USER Simple or more powerful user models are created Provides a conceptual framework within which to address the issues of user modeling Source: Smith-Atakan, Serengul. (2006). Human Computer Interaction  ASPECTS OF NATURAL COMPUTING DESIGNER Understand human information processing sufficiently Source: Smith-Atakan, Serengul. (2006). Human Computer Interaction  ASPECTS OF NATURAL COMPUTING SUSTAINABILITY There is the necessity for well-designed systems Source: Smith-Atakan, Serengul. (2006). Human Computer Interaction USER CENTERED DESIGN AND NATURAL COMPUTING  USER CENTERED DESIGN AND NATURAL COMPUTING User model Universal access Design for all Inclusive design Task models Technological platform Source: Smith-Atakan, Serengul. (2006). Human Computer Interaction  USER MODEL Summary of your target demographic These can vary from a simple list of stated preferences right up to a full psychological profile.

Interests: Women-in-tech communities, tech conferences  UNIVERSAL ACCESS Universal access is the objective of making systems that are accessible anytime, anywhere and to anyone of the intended user population. Source: Smith-Atakan, Serengul. (2006). Human Computer Interaction  ACCESS TO ALL It is similar to 'universal access', but also promotes the notion of careful design and design standards, so that users with special needs are not excluded from the use of a system.

Source: Smith-Atakan, Serengul. (2006). Human Computer Interaction  TECHNOLOGICAL PLATFORM In the earlier days of system design, technology placed severe restrictions on the functionality of proposed systems Source: Smith-Atakan, Serengul. (2006). Human Computer Interaction  TECHNOLOGICAL PLATFORM These days technological options are less restrictive and, we can expect our expectations to be fulfilled by the technology Source: Smith-Atakan, Serengul. (2006). Human Computer Interaction INTERACTIVE DESIGN  INTERACTIVE DESIGN The design between users and products The goal of interactive design is to create products that enable users to achieve their specific tasks efficiently.

Source: Interaction Design Foundation (interaction-design.org)  DIMENSIONS OF INTERACTION DESIGN 2nd DIMENSION: VISUAL REPRESENTATION Anything visual being interacted by the user. Examples include: Icons Images Color Typography Source: Interaction Design Foundation (interaction-design.org)  DIMENSIONS OF INTERACTION DESIGN 3rd DIMENSION: PHYSICAL OBJECTS or SPACE Basically, this is the physical interface between software and the user Source: Interaction Design Foundation (interaction-design.org)  DIMENSIONS OF INTERACTION DESIGN 4th DIMENSION: TIME Refers to the motion that changes within time to signify progress. This may refer to transitions, animations, videos, and sounds. Source: Interaction Design Foundation (interaction-design.org)  DIMENSIONS OF INTERACTION DESIGN 5th DIMENSION: BEHAVIOR This sometimes refer to the reaction a user has from the experience he/she has. Examples include UX, feedback, and response, defining the overall experience of the user. Source: Interaction Design Foundation (interaction-design.org)
