Abstract

With the continuously increasing number and variety of devices, the study of visual design of their Graphical User Interfaces grows in importance and scope, particularly for new devices, including smartphones, tablets, and large screens. Conducting a visual design experiment typically requires defining and building a GUI dataset with different resolutions for different devices, computing visual design measures for the various configurations, and analyzing their results. This workflow is very time- and resource-consuming, therefore limiting its reproducibility. To address this problem, we present UiLab, a cloud-based workbench that parameterizes the settings for conducting an experiment on visual design of Graphical User Interfaces, for facilitating the design of such experiments by automating some workflow stages, and for fostering their reproduction by automating their deployment. Based on requirements elicited for UiLab, we define its conceptual model to delineate the borders of services of the software architecture to support the new workflow. We exemplify it by demonstrating a system walkthrough and we assess its impact on experiment reproducibility in terms of design and development time saved with respect to a classical workflow. Finally, we discuss potential benefits brought by this workbench with respect to reproducing experiments in GUI visual design and existing shortcomings to initiate future avenues. We publicly release UiLab source code on a GitHub repository.

Visual design checklist for graphical user interface (GUI) evaluation
SAC '18: Proceedings of the 33rd Annual ACM Symposium on Applied Computing

The¹ Graphical User Interface (GUI) design is a major process within the software development lifecycle, because the GUI is the portion of the interface that will be in direct contact with the end-user. There are resources to help make the interface ...
Towards supporting reproducibility of experimental studies in GUI visual design
EICS '20 Companion: Companion Proceedings of the 12th ACM SIGCHI Symposium on Engineering Interactive Computing Systems

Graphical User Interfaces are the most common way of interaction with the devices we use in our everyday life. Given the important and long-lasting impact that the visual design of GUIs has on User Experience, its experimental study is of high ...
Multimedia visual interface design
CHI EA '97: CHI '97 Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing Systems

Over the past few years, as graphics and imagery have come to dominate our popular modes of communication, interactive multimedia and WWW developers and users have become keenly aware of the interplay between these visual elements and the cognitive ...
