Frequently,\r\ninsuring more or less smooth transition from one context of\r\nuse to the other (from the end-user perspective) is conducted\r\nad hoc. To support a more systematic approach for\r\ncharacterizing UI tuning in terms of quality in use along\r\ncontext of use variations, we present an exploratory study\r\nfocused deliberately on platform aspects. The design process\r\nof this particular case study is detailed and all design\r\ndecisions have been recorded in terms of their influence on\r\nUI ergonomic quality, using Ergonomic Criteria. The\r\ninteresting result is that most design choices when changing\r\nthe platform lead to the reexamination of the initial designs.\r\nOngoing work is done to support the insight that considering\r\nplasticity seems to help in explicitly broadening UI design\r\nchoices and sharpening the solution.", "authors": { "1": { "first_name": "Audrey", "last_name": "Serna" }, "2": { "first_name": "Gaëlle", "last_name": "Calvary" }, "3": { "first_name": "Dominique", "last_name": "Scapin" } }, "year": 2010, "uri": "http://iihm.imag.fr/publication/SCS10a/", "pages": "29-34", "note": "June 19-23, 2010", "id": 508, "abbr": "SCS10a", "address": "Berlin, Germany", "date": "2010-04-22", "document": "http://iihm.imag.fr/publs/2010/Serna-Calvary-Scapin-EICS2010-ACMpermission.pdf", "type": "Conférences internationales de large diffusion avec comité de lecture sur texte complet", "booktitle": "Proceeding of the second ACM SIGCHI Symposium on Engineering Interactive Computing Systems (EICS 2010)" }]);
