WG3 Interplay between Design and Evaluation, Quality Models and Standards Twintide Coimbra, Portugal March, 2013 Ebba Þóra Hvannberg
WG3a Qualities in use • Identify which software qualities in use (e.g., trust, creativity, automaticity, security, safety, sociability, usability, reliability, evolvability - (related to standards, e.g., ISO 9241, 27477)) • are differentiated by sector-dependent or sector-independent criteria and describe connections • vary over lifecycle • are traded-off against quality attributes • are prioritized and realized in the process of systems development in different sectors/disciplines
WG3c design-evaluationfeedback • Understand how iterative design-evaluation-redesign feedback cycles operate for • computing systems in different sectors • relative to specific evaluation criteria: social, economic, technical etc. • traceability through cycle
Past activities • Qualityattributemaps of relationsbetweendomains • Created initially(Bertinoro 2011) • Refined ( London, 2012) • Consolidated (Skopje, 2012)
Analysis of Transfer of Quality Attributes • The goal was to strengthen the quality attribute map • Papers selected with the following criteria • Quality attribute(s), Sector/Domain, Method • Had to have empirical data • Papers analysed • 9 memberscontributedtothe analysis of 17 papers
Stories of transfer described • Storieson transfer described • As a <role> I wantto <task> so that I can do <need> • Storytellerswereaskedtothinkaboutmethod transfer whendescribing a task
Prescribed format (from facilitator) • 20 storieswerecollected in London, March 2012 • Thestorieshavebeenclassified and cleaned • A set of 12 storiesremainthatarerelatedtosome kind of transfer of methodfromone „methodapplication“ toanother
Forms of transfer • Transfer between domains • E-Learning to Games • Transfer from generalization to specialization • Heuristics evaluation for Virtual Environments • Adoption of a technique from another field followed by adaptation • E.g. Laddering from marketing
Storiesanalysed and grouped • Generalizationtospecialisation • Specialisation • Transfer betweendomains • Transfer betweensimilardomains • Adaptation
Openquestions • Howcanthese results beverified or expanded • In theliterature, look for similar patterns • Casestudies • Knowledge on transfer • Collectmore transfer storiesfromliterature • In practice • Designers and developerschangejobsoften • Theymaybeabletotellus transfer stories, i.e. howthey transfer knowledge/methodsbetweensectors
Copenhagen 2012 results • Tell a story of how you have carried out an evaluation, e.g. in a project and contrast it to another instance of an evaluation. • 18 cases of transfer stories were collected from Twintide members • Results are here
Overview of form of transfer • Overview
Revising stories and further analysis • Read and amend story • Typos • Specify domain of story • Review stories • Review transfer between stories • Add publication if available
Identify method resources used in the stories * • Participant-recruitment • Task selection • Reporting format • Problem identification • Problem classification • Analysis • Heuristics • Thinking aloud protocol • Please add more as needed *Law, E.L.-C., Hvannberg, E., Vermeeren, A.P.O.S., Cockton, G., Jokela, T.: Made for Sharing: HCI Stories of Transfer, Triumph and Tragedy.
