  • FAR : an end-user language to support cottage e-services

    Creator:
    Chekka, Sudheer Kumar
    Abstract:
    E-commerce has begun to evolve beyond simple web pages to more sophisticated ways of conducting e-business transactions, such as through electronic advertising, negotiation, and delivery. However, to participate in these advances requires the skills of professional programmers, and end-user owners of small businesses often cannot justify this expense. In this...

  • End-user testing for the Lyee methodology using the screen transition paradigm and WYSIWYT

    Creator:
    Brown, Darren, Burnett, Margaret, 1949-, and Rothermel, Gregg
    Abstract:
    End-user specification of Lyee programs is one goal envisioned by the Lyee methodology. But with any software development effort comes the possibility of faults. Thus, providing end users a means to enter their own specifications is not enough; they must also be provided with the means to find faults in...

  • End-user software engineering in the spreadsheet paradigm

    Creator:
    Abraham, Robin
    Abstract:
    Spreadsheets are among the most widely used end-user programming systems. Unfortunately, there is a high incidence of errors in end-user spreadsheets, and some of these errors have high impact. In this dissertation, we describe techniques we have developed to help end users develop safer spreadsheets. As part of our research,...

  • Using Web Services for Image Processing in a Desktop Widgets Engine

    Creator:
    Le, Hien
    Abstract:
    Desktop widget engines have emerged as an alternative for completing simple tasks without the need for a full-blown application or constant user interaction. Widgets can simply display data in a compact and visually appealing manner (such as stock tickers, weather forecasts, and news notifications), or go so far as to...

  • The Impact of Internet and Videogame Use on College Student Development

    Creator:
    Calhoun, Benjamin W.
    Abstract:
    In recent decades, there has been a tremendous change in the college student experience. In many ways this change has been driven by developments in technology, which have in turn changed the way students conduct research, socialize, and recreate. This thesis seeks to gain an understanding as to how Internet...

  • Workshop report : from end-user programming to end-user software engineering (a CHI'06) Workshop)

    Creator:
    Oregon State University. Dept. of Computer Science, Burnett, Margaret, 1949-, Myers, Brad A., Rosson, Mary Beth, Wiedenbeck, Susan, and Leibel, Adam
    Abstract:
    End users create software when they use spreadsheet systems, web authoring tools and graphical languages, and when they create educational simulations, macros-by-demonstration, and dynamic e-business web applications and mash-ups. Some end-user developers, such as accountants or teachers, may have no formal training at all in programming. Others, such as scientists...

  • Gender HCI issues in end-user programming

    Creator:
    Beckwith, Laura A.
    Abstract:
    Until recently, research has not considered whether the design of end-user programming environments, such as spreadsheets, multimedia authoring languages, and CAD systems, affects males and females differently. As a result, we began investigating how the two genders are impacted by end-user programming software and whether attention to gender differences is...

  • Understanding and supporting end-user debugging strategies

    Creator:
    Grigoreanu, Valentina I.
    Abstract:
    End users' programs are fraught with errors, costing companies millions of dollars. One reason may be that researchers and tool designers have not yet focused on end-user debugging strategies. To investigate this possibility, this dissertation presents eight empirical studies and a new strategy-based end-user debugging tool for Excel, called StratCel....

  • Network coding for multi-user wireless networks

    Creator:
    Nguyen, Dong Van
    Abstract:
    Until a few years ago, wireless-capable laptops were considered novelties by many. It is now hard to find a laptop or a hand-held computing device that is not wireless-ready. As wireless devices are becoming commodities, they have also become an indispensable part of the modern society. Not surprisingly, research in...

  • Mediating off-site electronic reference services : human-computer interactions between librarians and web mining technology

    Creator:
    Chau, May
    Abstract:
    The Internet enables global dissemination and retrieval of information at any time, as a result, it has a tremendous impact on how libraries provide reference services to this new web-based clientele. One impact is the increase in off-site library users who make in-person reference interviews impossible. To serve this new...
