Workshop on
Guiding Users through Interactive Experiences:
Usability Centred Design and Evaluation of Virtual 3D Environments
Paderborn, Germany, April 13.-14. 2000
University of Paderborn and C-LAB
In Cooperation with: GI FA 4.1, HNI
http://www.uni-paderborn.de/cs/ag-domik/workshop/index.htm
Theme:
With the proliferation of virtual environments in real-world
visualization, presentation and training applications the design of
effective and usable content becomes increasingly important. Much work
in the domain of virtual environments has focused on the creation and
demonstration of new technologies with only minimal consideration of
usability aspects, especially at the content level. As virtual 3D
environments mature from technology demonstrations to real-world
applications effective and efficient content development becomes
increasingly important.
As a unifying theme the workshop will address the problem of user
guidance in interactive virtual environments.
The workshop will provide researchers with an opportunity to present
usability centred design and evaluation techniques for virtual
environment.
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
- Concepts, models, paradigms of navigation and wayfinding
- VR and virtual 3D environments content development
- Wayfinding
- Navigation aids, guidance and illustration techniques
- Design processes, design techniques and tools
- Evaluation requirements, techniques and tools
Submissions and Attendance:
To encourage discussion and interaction the number of places is limited.
There are three categories of submissions (papers, posters, position
statements).
