[en] SEMIOTIC ENGINEERING OF MULTIUSER INTERFACES / [es] LA INGENIERÍA SEMIÓTICA DE LENGUAJES DE INTERFACES MULTI-USUARIO / [pt] A ENGENHARIA SEMIÓTICA DE LINGUAGENS DE INTERFACES MULTI-USUÁRIORAQUEL OLIVEIRA PRATES 10 August 2001 (has links)
[pt] Atualmente, designers de interfaces multi-usuário contam
com o apoio de diretrizes, frame-works, modelos de
descrição e toolkits durante o desenvolvimento destas.
Toolkits dão suporte à construção da interface, enquanto
diretrizes e frameworks levantam questões a serem
consideradas durante a sua definição. Os modelos, por sua
vez, permitem a descrição dos modelos conceituais do
grupo
a serem representados nesta interface, ou parte deles. No
entanto, nenhum destes fornece ao projetista um ambiente
que lhe permita planejar e definir sua interface.
Adotamos
neste trabalho a abordagem da Engenharia Semiótica, na
qual
a interface é vista como uma mensagem unilateral sendo
enviada pelo projetista aos usuários. Esta mensagem é
considerada um artefato de meta-comunicação, uma vez que
ela mesma é capaz de trocar mensagens com o usuário. Em
um
ambiente multi-usuário ela é também um artefato de
mediação
de comunicação, já que serve de medium para os usuários
se
comunicarem entre si. Esta abordagem enfatiza a expressão
do designer e cria a necessidade de se desenvolver
instrumentos de apoio a esta expressão. Neste trabalho
buscamos dar apoio ao designer de interfaces multi-
usuário,
dentro do quadro teórico da Engenharia Semiótica. Assim,
apresentamos um modelo abstrato de meta-comunicação que
serve de base para o desenvolvimento de instrumentos de
apoio à descrição de interfaces multi-usuários. Este
modelo
propõe que se ofereça ao projetista, não apenas uma forma
de descrever sua mensagem, mas também indicadores
qualitativos sobre esta descrição. A partir deste modelo,
criamos um modelo de arquitetura de suporte ao design de
interfaces multi-usuário. Este modelo dá suporte a
projetistas fazendo o design de interfaces de forma
top-down. Assim, este trabalho é o primeiro passo na
direção de um ambiente de suporte ao design de interfaces
multi-usuário com qualidade. / [en] Nowadays there are guidelines, frameworks, models and
toolkits that support the devel-opment of multi-user
interfaces. Toolkits assist designers in buiding the
interface, whereas guidelines and frameworks direct the
designer towards issues to be considered during interface
design. Models, on their turn, allow for the description of
the conceptual model of the group (or part of it) to be
represented in the interface. Nevertheless, none of these
provide the designer with an environment in which to plan
and define the system`s interface. We take a Semiotic
Engineering approach, in which the interface is perceived
as a one-shot message being sent from the designer to the
users. In particular, interfaces can be viewed as meta-
communication artifacts, since they can also exchange
messages with the users. Further-more, in multi-user
environments, they are also communication embedding
artifacts, since they allow for the communication among
users. This approach focuses on the expression of the
designer and requires the development of means to support
this expression. In this work, we intend to provide support
to multi-user interface designers, in a Semiotic
Engineering framework. In order to meet our goal, we
developed a meta-communication model from which models and
techniques to support the development of multi-user
interfaces can be developed. The meta-communication model
proposes that designers should be provided not only with
means to describe their messages, but also some qualitative
indications on their description. Based on this model, we
developed a model of an architecture to support the
design of multi-user interfaces. This model assists
designers that develop multi-user interfaces top-down.
Therefore, this work is the first step in the direction of
an environment to support the design of multi-user
interfaces with quality. / [es] Actualmente, los dieños de interfaces multi-usuario cuentan, durante su desarrollo,con el apoyo de

Small but mighty : en kvalitativ studie om lokala designföretags marknadskommunikationEldefors, Miriam, Rosvall, Hanna January 2018 (has links)
Studiens syfte är att redogöra för, samt få en djupare förståelse kring lokala designföretags marknadskommunikation. Forskningsfrågorna lyder som följande; Vilka kanaler för marknadskommunikation använder sig lokala designföretag av? samt Hur arbetar lokala designföretag med innehåll och formspråk i sin marknadskommunikation? Genom en kvalitativ metod med deduktiv ansats, utfördes åtta semistrukturerade intervjuer med både företagare och experter. Vidare genomfördes en innehållsanalys samt strukturerade observationer av fem företags digitala och sociala kanaler. Resultatet visar på att det finns gemensamma aspekter när det kommer till vilka kanaler samt vilket innehåll som företagen använder och publicerar. Det går även att utläsa att samtliga företag har en tydlig produktorientering i sin kommunikation. Formspråket baseras dock på företagens egen estetik. Slutligen presenteras studiens resultat i en modell, som utgår från Shannon-Weavers kommunikationsmodell från 1948 och förslag för framtida forskning tydliggörs. / The purpose of this study was to describe, as well as gain a deeper understanding of local design companies' marketing communication. The research questions were as follows: Which channels for marketing communication do local design companies use? and How does local design companies work with content and design languages in their market communication? Through a qualitative method of deduction, eight semistructured interviews were conducted with both entrepreneurs and experts. Furthermore, a content analysis and structured observations were conducted of five companies' digital and social channels. The result shows that there are common aspects when it comes to which channels and what content companies use and publish. It is also possible to read that all companies have a clear product orientation in their communication. The design language is based on the company's own aesthetics. Finally, the study results are presented in a model, based on Shannon-Weaver's communication model from 1948, and proposals for future research are clarified.

Design leadership and communication : characteristics and abilities of design leaders communicating design to non-designers during the fuzzy front end of new product developmentHan, Koogin January 2014 (has links)
This research investigates the key characteristics of design leaders in the context of New Product Development (NPD) at the Fuzzy Front End (FFE) or early stage of this process. It particularly focuses on how design leaders communicate design to non-designers. It is often observed that designers struggle to communicate design to non-designers. Previous research has identified design leaders as competent design communicators. However, the definition and key characteristics of design leaders remain unclear. By reviewing the literature on leadership studies, design leadership and project leadership, it is evident that no single universal definition of leadership exists. The most common definition is that leaders apply their knowledge and skills to conduct activities and use their traits to influence other people’s actions. Leadership requires different characteristics for different tasks. To understand the characteristics of design leaders, triangulated research was employed at a real-life NPD project involving young designers and non-designers at early stages of NPD as part of the first study. All participants (N=32) were directly observed, interviewed in semi-structured interviews and administered with assistive questionnaires to compare design and non-design participants’ leadership and communication styles. The second study was in-depth, focusing on UK design leaders (N=11) through semi-structured interviews and based on deficiencies in leadership and communicating design, identified from the first study and the literature review. Comparative studies indicate that designers and design leaders vary their attitudes towards non-designers, motivation and communication style. This study highlights the key characteristics of design leaders: an epiphany by experiencing the entire NPD process, interest in the benefits of NPD stakeholders, a good understanding of design competency, reflectively flexible working attitude and strong, active listening. Thus, a conceptual model was formulated and evaluated, able to guide designers who wish to become design leaders and help to enhance design communication and relationships with non-designers.

Uma técnica baseada em SysML para modelar a arquitetura de sistemas embarcados de tempo realRibeiro, Quelita Araújo Diniz da Silva 23 March 2017 (has links)
Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES / Architectural specification of real-time software systems is an activity that conveys analysis,
knowledge and understanding of both the application domain and the parties involved in software
construction. Architecture plays a key role in communication between stakeholders, in addition
to planning the entire architectural process involved in the project. However, Architecture
Description Languages (ADLs) have not been widely used in the industry. Another limiting
factor for the e ff ective use of ADLs is the di ffi culty of these languages in e ff ectively expressing
the architecture of complex systems. Considering this situation of di ffi culty in the e ff ective use
of ADLs, the UML has been used in recent years to model the architecture. However, UML can
not represent the important characteristics pertinent to real-time systems, such as security or
real-time constraints. One of the advantages of the UML is the extensibility allowing the creation
of profiles. In this sense, this work proposes using Systems Modeling Language (SysML), a
UML profile, to model real-time systems architecture in two automotive systems, the airbag
control system and the light control system. The objective of this work is to use UML and SysML
to model and document the architecture and design of requirements traceability between software
and systems elements, increasing the understanding of the project among the parties involved,
and finally presenting SysML as a language for description of real-time software architecture.
The ADL Architecture Analysis and Design Language (AADL) and SysML languages were
compared to show the advantages of SysML. As a result, it was noticed that abstract features
such as conditional deviations, loop, characteristics that are related to reality and consequently
to the system can not be described in AADL. SysML has proved to be relevant in the context of
architecture description, analysis, classification and modeling of real-time systems. The SysML
Requirements diagram explicitly shows the various types of relationships between di ff erent
requirements, the Block diagram enables the global view of the systems involved in a single
project, the Internal Block diagram allows the internal view of the system under construction, the
Activity diagram considers the behavioral view of the system. SysML concepts, articulated in
the SysML Requirements, Activities, Blocks and Internal Blocks diagrams, are complementary,
covering the purposes needed to describe the architecture of real-time systems. It is concluded
that the proposed UML and SysML join technique provides elements to describe software
requirements and their relationships with the system, to manage changes, to evolve and to trace
requirements more easily, in addition to the communication being e ff ectively carried out between
the stakeholders. This is important for the development of real-time systems because of the
diversity of people / teams involved and influencing a wide range of design decisions. / A especificação da arquitetura de sistemas de software de tempo real é uma atividade que
depreende análise, conhecimento e compreensão tanto do domínio da aplicação quanto das partes
envolvidas na construção do software. A arquitetura tem um papel primordial na comunicação
entre os stakeholders, além do planejamento de todo o processo arquitetural envolvido no
projeto. Contudo, as Linguagens de Descrição de Arquiteturas (ADLs) não têm sido amplamente
usadas na indústria. Outro fator limitador para o uso efetivo de ADLs é a dificuldade dessas
linguagens em expressar efetivamente a arquitetura de sistemas complexos. Considerando essa
situação de dificuldade do uso efetivo de ADLs, a UML tem sido utilizada nos últimos anos
para modelagem da arquitetura. No entanto, a UML não consegue representar características
importantes pertinentes a sistemas de tempo real, tais como segurança ou restrições de tempo real.
Uma das vantagens da UML é a capacidade de extensão permitindo a criação de profiles. Neste
sentido, este trabalho apresenta a Systems Modeling Language (SysML), um profile da UML, para
modelagem da arquitetura de sistemas de tempo real em dois sistemas automotivos, o sistema
de controle de airbag e o sistema de controle de faróis. Neste trabalho tem-se como objetivos
utilizar a UML e a SysML para modelagem e documentação da arquitetura e delineamento de
rastreabilidade de requisitos entre software e sistema, ampliando o entendimento do projeto
entre as partes envolvidas, e por fim apresentar a SysML como uma linguagem para descrição
da arquitetura de software de tempo real. As linguagens SysML e a ADL Architecture Analysis
& Design Language (AADL) foram comparadas para mostrar as vantagens da SysML. Como
resultado, foi percebido que características abstratas, tais como tomadas de decisão, repetição de
uma funcionalidade (loop), características que são relacionadas a realidade e, consequentemente,
ao sistema, não podem ser descritas em AADL. A SysML mostrou-se relevante no contexto
da descrição, análise, classificação e modelagem de arquitetura para sistemas de tempo real. O
diagrama de Requisitos da SysML mostra explicitamente os diversos tipos de relacionamentos
entre diferentes requisitos, o diagrama de Blocos viabiliza a visão global dos sistemas envolvidos
num único projeto, o diagrama de Blocos Internos possibilita a visão interna do sistema em
construção, o diagrama de Atividades considera a visão comportamental do sistema. Os conceitos
de SysML, articulados nos diagramas de Requisitos, Atividades, Blocos e Blocos Internos da
SysML são complementares cobrindo os propósitos necessários para a descrição da arquitetura
de sistemas de tempo real. Conclui-se que a técnica proposta da junção de UML e SysML fornece
elementos para descrever requisitos de software e seus relacionamentos com o sistema, gerenciar
mudanças, evoluir e rastrear requisitos mais facilmente, além da comunicação ser efetivamente
realizada entre os stakeholders. Este aspecto é importante ao desenvolvimento de sistemas de
tempo real, por causa da diversidade de pessoas / equipes envolvidas e que influenciam uma ampla
série de decisões de projeto.

The Place of Female Architecture as a Design Language : A study into the progression of the female architect and the variables of the feminine architecture in SwedenNoorzadeh, Rana January 2022 (has links)
100 years after the official acceptance of women into higher architectural education in Sweden’s technical institutions, I have tracked and summarized the progress of not just female students and female employees within the architecture industry, but also the extent of the creative space offered for women throughout the years to express their individual styles. This has been with the intention of detecting a female design language that can be read in the Swedish city, starting from Sweden’s earliest female pioneer in the late 1890s. The study relates the female design language to openness and fluidity, and the feminine sense of caring for the social experience taking place within urban spaces. This is naturally not the case for every woman and is just a common pattern detected throughout different architectural eras. Results show a rapid progression of women within statistical numbers of both educational institutions and architecture firms. This number is, however, one dimensional and does not accurately represent positions of power - which appear to be male dominated - and its impact on the Swedish urban city. The modern woman, as it turns out, does not face the struggles of the pioneers. She is, on the other hand, placed within the box of large architecture corporations, and in that way loses her personal touch and sense of style in her professional work.

Biopolis : Ett Spelprojekt om Klimat- och Beteendeförändring / Biopolis : A Game Project about Climate- and Behavior ChangeSvensson, Rasmus January 2021 (has links)
Klimatförändring är något som sker naturligt på vår planet. Vad man dock har upptäckt under de senaste 100 åren, är att vi människor har påskyndat denna process och därmed satt planetens naturliga cykel ur balans. Forskare förutspår drastiska förändringar i framtiden. Torka och begränsad åtkomst till dricksvatten. Höjning av havsnivån. Extremaväder. M.m. Ändå händer det inte så mycket som man tycker att det borde göra. En förändring måste ske. Så vad kan jag, som grafisk designer, göra för världen? Ett av de stora problemen inom detta ämne är attdetta är något man inte vill tala om i samhället. Det är ett tungt ämne och det är förståeligt att mangärna vänder ryggen till. Därför har jag anpassatmitt projekt till att tackla detta dilemma genom attutnyttja ett medium som har möjlighet att fångauppnärksamhet på ett öppensinnat sätt. Genom rolig aktivitet och lättsam stämning hoppas jag att fler ska vara öppna till förändring. För att uppnå detta har grafisk formgivning använts för att gestala projektets identitet med stöd från färgteori och beteendevetenskap. Även teorierna om nudging och learning by doing har spelat en rolli arbetet som mynnat ut i ett brädspel med fokus på användarupplevelsen. / Climate change is something that happens naturally on our planet. What has been discovered over the last 100 years, however, is that us humans have accelerated this process and put the planet’s natural cycle out of balance. Researchers predict drastic changes in the future. Drought and limited access to drinking water. Increasing sea level. Extreme weather. Etc. Despite this not as much happens as you think it should. A change must happen. So what can I, as a graphic designer, do for the world? One of the big problems about this topic, is that this is something people avoid talking about in society. It’s a heavy subject and it’s understandable that people would rather turn their back on it. Therefore, I have adapted my project to tackle this dilemma by using a medium that has the opportunity to capture attention in an open minded way. Through fun activity and light-hearted atmosphere, I hope that more people will be open to change. To achieve this, graphic design has been used to shape the project’s identity with the support of color theory and behavioral science. The theories of nudging and learning by doing have also played a role in the work, which resulted in a board game with a focus on user experience.
