When designing the interface of the web site, we must consider what users want and need in the design, because design trends are recently changing from user interface design to user experience design. In this paper, we present the method to apply the user experience design when designing the main page of the web site. We select representative online markets and analyze the information elements which compose the main page. Using the eye tracking method which measure user's visual attention frequency, we compare the main page with the wire-frame and analyze changes of the visual attention frequency over time. As a result of experiments, it is efficient to allocate the important information as the image or the moving image to the center of main page for use's visual attention at the time of designing the main page of the online market.

This study examines how interactivity and usage mode of a chatbot interface affects user experience. Chatbot has rapidly been commercialized in accordance with improvements in artificial intelligence and natural language processing. However, most of the researches have focused on the technical aspect to improve the performance of chatbots, and it is necessary to study user experience on a chatbot interface. In this article, we investigated how 'interactivity' of an interface and the 'usage mode' referring to situations of a user affect the satisfaction, flow, and perceived usefulness of a chatbot for exploring user experience. As the result, first, the higher level of interactivity, the higher user experience. Second, usage mode showed interaction effect with interactivity on flow, although it didn't show the main effect. In specific, when interactivity is high in usage mode, flow was the highest rather than other conditions. Thus, for designing better chatbot interfaces, it should be considered to increase the degree of interactivity, and for users to achieve a goal easily through various functions with high interactivity.

본 논문에서는 가상현실기반 스토리텔링 시스템을 제작할 때 고려될 일반 사용자를 위한 디자인 방법론을 제안하고자 한다. 최근 가상현실 기술을 이용하여 시각적으로 실감성 높은 콘텐츠를 제작하는 연구에 많은 시도와 진척이 이루어지고 있다. 그러나 시각적 콘텐츠 이상의 의미를 전달하는 방법이나 이를 위한 개인화된 인터페이스에 대한 연구는 아직 미흡한 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 콘텐츠의 개인화된 체험과 그를 위한 인터페이스를 중심으로 스토리를 구성하는 방법을 제안한다. 첫째, 문화재(콘텐츠)에 대한 사용자의 관심도를 고려해 인터랙션(혹은 이벤트) 스토리라인을 구성한다. 둘째, 가상현실기반 프로젝트에 대한 사용자의 경험도를 고려하여 개인화된 인터페이스를 구축한다. 그리하여 사용자가 가상현실기반 스토리텔링을 경험할 때 관심도와 경험도에 맞는 개인별 맞춤 스토리를 경험할 수 있게 하는 것이다. 제안된 스토리텔링 기법은 디지털 에듀테인먼트 시스템에 효과적으로 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

Rapid prototyping technology has been widely applied to the design process in the industry. This technology made it easy to generate a prototype which acts like a real product in logic. However, this technology has not been validated sufficiently as a usability test method. The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis : There was no significant difference between a real product and its prototype. An experiment was designed to test it statistically. a microwave oven was selected and its prototype was generated using a rapid prototyping tool. Six subjects used the microwave oven and another six subjects used the prototype to perform five scenario tasks. As a result, there was significant difference between the real product and prototype in success rate, task completion time, and number of buttons pressed. The prototype was more difficult to operate than the real product. Therefore we should be careful when we apply rapid prototyping. technology. In the discussions, the causes of the difference were identified and some guidelines were suggested for who wants to apply rapid prototyping tool to the usability test.

The Web has taken a strong post as one of the media for advertisement for long time. The Internet has an advantage of an easy access to each of customers; the fractioning of the potential customers; the transcending of the time and space; and the utilizing of the multimedia. As such, the Web as a communication tool has not only all characteristics of the existing media but also the factors such as the sound, motion, and interaction. Therefore the Web designing should be much more flexible and open than any other medias. Nevertheless, most of the Webs being created currently appear to be simply perfunctory and functional. This is because a methodological aspect has not been rooted firmly as the Web design industry has been developed too rapidly, driven by the explosive demand. Therefore, this study is designed to demonstrate the approaching method to the Web-interface designing as an alternative for such methodological aspect. In other words, it is the very stillness-motion interface designing of the Web, based on the e-advertisement concept. The Web as one of the media for advertisement gives the heaviest weight to the users emotional aspects than any other media do. Therefore, it is very important to get the differentiation and impact in the Web-interface designing through the users emotional aspects.

It is advantageous to use XML in developing user interfaces, since XML is independent from platforms and languages and it is easy to learn and use. The existing XML-based languages do not adopt formal model, and they are developed in ad hoc manner. Moreover, they provide limited facilities to handle user events, and combine user interface components with internal logics. In this paper, we introduce an extended MVP (EMVP) model, which is extended from MVP (Model-View-Presenter), and XUIML, which is a new XML application based on the EMVP to support user interface. XUIML provides useful methods to build user interface, including methods to describe actions on user events, data flows between objects, and internal logics. The XUIML system provides two style editors - text editor and graphic editor. It also provides two code generators. One generates Java source, and the other generate C# code from XUIML document. The XUIML graphic editor allows users to manipulate XML elements directly, and we can gain high productivity with the graphic editor.

This paper presents an intuitive 3D modeling interlace based on a field study and prototype development. The process and tools of modeling were observed in workshops of professional design model making, day modeling, wood caning and glass crafting. The Spray Modeling interlace was developed from the observational analysis of the field study. It is a 3D modeling interface which combines particle spraying and day modeling in Virtual or Augmented Reality space. Virtual volume particles are sprayed on frames in Augmented Reality space as day modeling. It adopts a real air spay gun as a tangible interface device which provides coherent sound and air-force feedback. The prototype development and a user study showed that the interface supports new patterns of form development and expression. Control interfaces and requirements of auxiliary devices were found to be improved. This study examines the potential of the new interlace for designers working in 3D virtual and augmented reality. The new spraying interface is also expected to be used as an alternative interface in 3D computer workspace, games, education software and media art.

The enlarge the range of internet users require user centered design method what understanding of cognitive faculties about users by different age groups. This study aims at analyzing cognitive faculties about visual information on web interface by different age groups, presenting visual perception cognitive process model as an evaluation model and proposing an effective web interface design guideline, On the basis of analyzing cognitive faculties verified what each detail property of visual perception cognitive process model as form, color, space, movement and physiological, physical cognitive faculties had have individual cognitive faculties. As the result visual perception cognitive process model suggested in this study can be used as an evaluation model of web interface and users' cognitive faculties analyzed in visual perception measurement by different age groups can be applied as a web interface design guideline. In addition, this study has a meaning in that it makes a chance to extend a web designer's roles and establish a direction of future research by usability of different age groups.

현재 건축 설계 분야에 사용되고 있는 시스템들은 대부분 데스크탑을 기반으로 하고 있고 설계시에 건축물을 입면, 측면, 평면 등으로 분리하는 인터페이스를 제공하고 있다. 그렇기 때문에 현재 설계되고 있는 건축물이 실제 거리에 적용되었을 때의 느낌을 제대로 파악하기 어렵다. 이에 대해, 실재감을 중시한 가상현실을 통한 건축 응용들이 있었으나 3차원에서의 상호작용이 쉽지 않기 때문에 가능한 상호작용이 제한되는 경향이 있었다. 이러한 한계를 극복하기 위해 본 논문에서는 실감 있는 3차원 입체 경관을 보여주면서, 설계에 필요한 상호작용의 특성에 따라 2차원과 3차원의 인터페이스 미디어를 복합 활용하는 이른바 복합 인터페이스를 활용한 거리경관 디자인 시스템을 제시한다. 이 시스템을 사용함으로써 사용자들은 실재감 있는 경관을 몰입형 벽면 디스플레이를 통해 확인하면서 모바일 기기를 활용한 복합 인터페이스를 통해 설계할 수 있게 된다.
