The Ozlab user-test facility at Karlstad University needs to be reprogrammed. This paper will be used as a decision support document for the redesigning. Ozlab is currently depending on a discontinued software, the learning curve is too steep for new users and there are a number of flaws in the system that force the user to take detours to complete some simple tasks. Ozlab uses the Wizard-of-Oz technique. The Wizard-of-Oz technique is a method used for conducting user tests on prototypes with no functionality; instead a “wizard” controlling the test person’s computer from the next room provides the interaction. There are no general Wizard-supporting tools in the world except for Ozlab. When developing the solution for Ozlab it is important to keep this unique concept, but make the Ozlab system fit for the future and long term sustainable.   For this paper, interviews with different kinds of users were conducted to map what is most important for them in a future Ozlab. Moreover, reliance on other programs and file formats than the present ones is also discussed. These other programs and file formats are evaluated on how well they support the optimal workflow for creating and testing a prototype in Ozlab. Recommendations are made with the conclusion that an XML-based solution is the most appropriate option, because the biggest concerns are to make Ozlab as independent from software and file formats as possible, and to make sure that maintenance is easy. Other solutions discussed are based on the Adobe Photoshop software and the HTML5 format.

<p>Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka hur representationer av grupper med olika etnisk bakgrund placerade i en sluten institution skildras i en amerikansk fiktiv tv-serie, närmare bestämt i den av HBO producerade tv-serien Oz. Vidare vill vi undersöka hur stor del av rollfigurernas beteende i tv-serien som härstammar från deras etniska bakgrund och kultur eller om den slutna institutionens totala auktoritet och miljö även spelar in i utformandet av deras personlighet.</p><p>Genom att analysera tv-serien Oz, som är en av de mest ingående fiktiva skildringarna av amerikansk fängelsekultur, hoppas vi komma till insikt om hur etniska grupper, vars medlemmar besitter en moraliskt tvivelaktig karaktär, kan skildras i västerländsk kommersiell populärkultur.</p> / Papperstigrar och Rednecks & Dagos

The purpose of the thesis is to reflect upon the female nude imagery in the counterculture publication London Oz 1967 - 1968, with the retrospective understanding that the alienation involved had a profoundly detrimental effect on my art practice at the time. My aim is to interrogate the past with a view to informing creatively my present work. My thesis is a body of paintings accompanied by an exegesis and a catalogue, from the shed to the dining room and back, 2002, as a work in progress of the MVA. / Thesis (MVisualArts)--University of South Australia, 2005.
