Digital screen for appointments and employeesBerglund, Anton January 2014 (has links)
With a digital screen a company can provide a simple way to inform its employees and visitors about what is going on at the oce. The company KnowitAB wished to be able to display upcoming events through such a digital screen.This thesis describes how a solution was designed and implemented to suit the needs of the company.By using the design process a web based solution was built able to display events retrieved from the company's Exchange server on a digital screen. The solution was also built as a web site, making it accessible from outside the office so that employees can look up information on the go. The resulting solution is going to be installed in Knowit's office in Umeå, with a future vision of installing it in several other Knowit offices.

Designing the Mobile Web: Guidelines for User Interactionand ExperienceRing, Lisa January 2013 (has links)
The area of mobile web is evolving rapidly but there are still no consensus regarding recommendations or best practices within the topic. Therefore this thesis is focused on interaction design within mobile web and compiles many dierent theories into guidelines for mobileweb design. The thesis may also be used as a foundation when deciding whether to developa native mobile application or a mobile adapted web application, or when choosing betweena separate mobile web application and a responsive web design.Components that are especially considered in this thesis are form elements and navigation menus. These are discussed relative to interaction on small touch screens such as smartphones and tablets. For example, text input elements can be optimized for the intended input format and one can take advantage of the device's native components for e.g. time and date input. A prototype of a responsive web application is also developed to further exemplify the theoretical theories. This is a exploratory study for the Swedish magazine Resume in collaboration with The Mobile Life and is focused on convert the original site into a responsive design, but still retain the overall Resume look and feel.

Facilitating the Information Exchange Between Parents and Personnel at Preschools by Gathering Quantitative DataMarkus, Johansson January 2014 (has links)
The information exchange between parents and personnel at preschools is held informally and mainly when the child is departed from the preschool. Interviews with parents and personnel at preschools were made to find out what this exchange consists of, what factors affect it, and if there are parts that may be improved by making them digital. Through these interviews, the information need was extracted and analyzed, and factors affecting the information exchange were identified. Parts of these findings where compiled into asoftware idea as an extension to the software for preschools provided by Tempus Information Systems ab, where this master’s thesis was conducted.Requirements for the software were gathered and prioritized. Prototypes were made,tested, and evaluated leading to the development of a web application. The application supports input of chosen parts of the information need in order to make it accessible forparents. It is intended to be used by the personnel and to run on a tablet mounted on thewall, helping their everyday tasks, as well as being a service to parents of smaller children. This information could then be retrieved by the parents when the child is departed from theTempus Touch software at the preschool, thus freeing the information exchange to qualitative matters about the child’s well-being. It could also be accessible through the Tempus web or mobile application while at home.

Big Data - Small Device: AMobile Design Concept fo rGeopolitical Awareness when TravelingSonning, Sabina January 2013 (has links)
This work explores an application concept for small mobile devices, displaying structured "Big Data" based on human web reporting. The target user is a traveler interested in geopolitical events in the visited region and the concept focuses on high level signals to describethe situation and allows for following up, down to original reporting sources. Interviews and a survey was used to investigate the target user group's current behavior and needs while traveling and in unstable regions. The design process is described in reference to interaction design practices and successful applications on the market today, resulting in aconcept presented in the form of high fidelity sketches, well documented interaction style and transitions, and a clickable low delity prototype. The work can be used as a reference document for further development.

D-optimal designs for drug synergy.Kabera, Muregancuro Gaëtan. January 2009 (has links)
This thesis is fo cused on the construction of optimal designs for detecting drug interaction using the two-variable binary logistic mo del. Two sp eci c mo dels are considered: (1) the binary two-variable logistic mo del without interaction, and (2) the binary two-variable logistic mo del with interaction. The two explanatory variables are assumed to b e doses of two drugs that may or may not interact when jointly administered to sub jects. The main ob jective of the thesis is to algebraically construct the optimal designs. However, numerical computations are used for constructing optimal designs in cumb ersome cases. The problem of constructing optimal designs is to allo cate weights to sp eci c p oints of the design space in such a way that information asso ciated with mo del parameters is maximized and the variances of the mean resp onses are minimized. Sp eci cally, the D-optimality criterion discussed in this thesis minimizes the determinant of the asymptotic variance-covariance matrix of the estimates of the mo del parameters. The numb er of supp ort p oints of the D-optimal designs for the two- variable binary logistic mo del without interaction varies from 3 to 6. Supp ort p oints are equally weighted only in case of the 3-p oint designs and in some sp ecial cases of the 4-p oint designs. The numb er of supp ort p oints of the D-optimal designs for the two-variable binary logistic mo del with interaction varies from 4 to 8. Supp ort p oints are equally weighted only in case of the 4-p oint designs and in some sp ecial cases of 8-p oint designs. Numerous examples are given to illustrate theoretical results. / Thesis (Ph.D.)-University of KwaZulu-Natal, Pietermaritzburg, 2009.
