This thesis contributes to a new discipline of science: web science, as introduced in [Berners-Lee:2006]. The big challenge is, that such a research area has only been recently postulated, however, does not yet exist in a coherent form. Designers, computer scientists, sociologists, cognitive scientists, psychologists etc. have individual perspectives on the complex and rapidly evolving interplay of technological and social infrastructure and human society. However, a well-defined discipline — unifying the scientific analysis of social and human factors to understand, but also to shape and steer web developments by informed design and engineering — is not established yet. I hope to contribute to an interdisciplinary dialogue between science, engineering and design with this thesis.
Das Prinzip des Faltens soll als Metapher für grafische Benutzeroberflächen weiterentwickelt werden. Es soll untersucht werden, ob das Erlernen und das Verständnis der Bedienung bestimmter Programmfunktionen im Wesentlichen durch Faltprinzipien erleichtert werden. Eine Vielzahl von Funktionen wird heute in einem einzigen Gerät integriert. Die so entstehenden Hybriden stellen aus Sicht des Designs jedoch die Frage nach Form und Gestalt des Artefakts. Wegen der kleinen Größe der mobilen Geräte ist es folglich problematisch all diese unterschiedlichen Interfaces auf der Benutzeroberfläche zu integrieren. Versucht man diese unterschiedlichen Interfaces zu vereinen, ist das Ergebnis ein unübersichtliches, verwirrendes Interface mit eingeschränkter Bedienung. Zudem findet das Interface für die obsolete Desktop-Metapher immer noch Verwendung. Durch den bezug zu real existierenden Arbeitsumgebungen sind Desktop-Systeme zwar einfach zu bedienen und verständlich, doch können sie nicht ausgebaut werden. Problematisch ist vor allem die kleine Größe der Desktops, um die Desktop-Metapher konvenabel auszuführen. Demnach ist eine konvenable Bedienung aufgrund der veralteten Desktop-Metapher sowie des Interfaces hinsichtlich der Miniaturisierung der mobilen Geräte nur eingeschränkt möglich oder sogar undurchführbar. Die Arbeit erhebt hiernach den Anspruch, Überlegungen anzustreben, die den Begriff ‚Interface’ neu definieren sowie die daraus resultierende These „Das Paradigma ‚Falten‘ ist die Zukunft der ‚ePaper-Technologie‘ zu diskutieren.
In dieser Bachelorarbeit beschäftige ich mich mit dem Problem, dass die Maus für die Anwendung in neuartigen Kontexten leicht an die Grenzen ihrer Benutzbarkeit stößt. So etwa im mobilen Bereich, da sie auf unebenen Oberflächen schlecht oder gar nicht funktioniert. Ich zeige die Entwicklung der Maus im Laufe der Geschichte auf, um ihre Nutzung als verschiebungsbasiertes Zeigegerät zu erkunden. Außerdem präsentiere ich, wie sich die Verwendung des Computers durch die Verbreitung des Internets verändert hat, um festzustellen, dass das Internet immer mehr Möglichkeiten zur medialen Unterhaltung des Nutzers bietet und damit die Anzahl der nötigen Interaktionen schon weit höher ist, als beispielsweise bei einem Fernsehgerät. Dieses Mehr an Interaktion und das Fehlen eines adäquaten Eingabegerätes bedingt, dass das Internet zu Hause, trotz seiner Rolle als Unterhaltungsmedium, immer noch am Schreibtisch stattfindet - also nach vorn gelehnt und nicht bequem zurückgelehnt.
"THREADS" is an efficient and feasible virtual tool which in theory is easily accessible from everywhere, where users can surf the internet. Nowadays with laptops, netbooks and mobile phones this is possible wherever one goes. This leaves a lot of potential for such a workspace related Software as proposed in this thesis. The problem of finding something specific in a mass of data, even if it is located on ones own storage, is familiar to every Person, that uses a Computer System and especially if it is used together with other people. This thesis has to be seen as an approach to make it easier to find data and to have an overview of things, that are not so obvious on first sight. The author has decided to leave as much room to the user as possible to set own preference of search and consider different search behavior. People are very different, not only within different cultures or different age groups also within friends or farnily. This is why the future of the digital world needs to focus more on individuals and has to be more adaptable and dynamic. All aspects considered it can be concluded that this thesis has dynamically improved during the process of researching and developing a concept. This concept can be taken into further development and with the help of users, a successful final product can be developed that will help to strengthen the position of user experience work inside a scrum team.
As cultural institutions are digitizing their artifacts and interlinking their collections, new opportunities emerge to engage with cultural heritage. However, it is the often comprehensive and complex nature of collections that can make it difficult to grasp their distribution and extent across a variety of dimensions. After a brief introduction to the research area of collection visualizations, this paper presents a design study visualizing an aggregated collection from diverse cultural institutions in Germany. We detail our iterative design process leading to prototypical implementations of four stylistically and functionally coordinated visualizations, each one focusing on different facets of the collection.
From object to process

One of the most difficult tasks today is trying to grasp the presence of computing. The almost ubiquitous and diverse forms of networked computers (in all their stationary, mobile, embedded, and autonomous modes) create a nearly overwhelming complexity. To speak of what is here evading and present at the same time, the paper proposes to reconsider the concept of interface, its historical roots, and its heuristic advantages for an analysis and critique of the current and especially everyday spread of computerization.
The question of interfaces leads to isolable conditions and processes of conduction, as well as to the complexity of the cooperation formed by them. It opens both an investigative horizon and a mode of analysis, which always asks for further interface levels involved in the phenomenon I am currently investigating. As an example, the paper turns to the displacement of the file with the launch of the iPhone in 2007 and its comeback in 2017 with the “Files” apps.
Both developments are profoundly related to the establishment of computers as permanently networked machines, whereby their functionality, depresentations, and ideology come into focus.
Creativity is a crucial factor in finding novel and useful visualization and interaction techniques, but its emergence is contingent on the right conditions. The focus of visualization research has traditionally been on techniques, and to a lesser degree on the process of creating them with domain experts and end users. This paper focuses on the collaborative design of visualizations for information seeking and knowledge management. The difficult, yet common challenge in any visualization project is to find meaningful visual representations and useful interaction techniques to carry out complex analysis tasks. The unique difficulty for preparing co-design activities for visualization lies in the gap between the abstract nature of data and the concrete form of visual representations. To bridge this gap, our co-design framework for visualization places particular emphasis on actors, activities, and artifacts as categories that expand the focus of visualization design beyond the traditional triad of users, tasks, and data. Drawing from general co-design principles, the framework is developed and validated during the course of two case studies in the context of information management systems and library collection databases. Based on observed patterns during the case studies, practical tactics provide advice on carrying out co-design in information visualization.
Social anxiety disorder (SAD) is one of the most commonly diagnosed anxiety disorders and a health concern that has a significant impact on the affected individuals’ quality of life. Although there is a need to develop methods and tools to support those affected by SAD, it is especially challenging to conduct participatory design with this psychologically vulnerable group of people. This paper presents the design, implementation and evaluation of a participatory format built on a toolkit, a cultural probe and an online prototyping workshop to gain insights into the challenges and needs experienced in the everyday lives of those affected by severe social anxiety. We provide the theoretical framework for designing a participatory format for this vulnerable group, introduce and discuss our methodological approach, and present the lessons learned from implementing and evaluating the format in two workshop sessions with a total of 15 participants.
