Experimental Comparisons of Usability Evaluation Methods A Special Issue of Human-Computer Interaction

Experimental Comparisons of Usability Evaluation Methods A Special Issue of Human-Computer Interaction

This special issue contains essays regarding the CHI '95 conference which featured a panel titled Discount or Disservice? Discount Usability Analysis: Evaluation at a Bargain Price or Simply Damaged Merchandise? Wayne Gray who organized the panel presented a controversial critique of studies that had evaluated various usability evaluation methods (UEMs). The level of interest in this discussion led Gray to propose a review article that dealt with the issues in a more systematic fashion. The resulting essay written by Gray and his collaborator Marilyn Salzman conducted an in-depth review of a series of influential studies that used experimental methods to compare a variety of UEMs. Gray and Salzman's analysis was framed using Cook and Campbell's (1979) well-known discussion of various forms of validity. They used this to evaluate numerous details of these comparative studies and they concluded that the studies fell short on the criteria by which good experimental studies are designed and interpreted. | Experimental Comparisons of Usability Evaluation Methods A Special Issue of Human-Computer Interaction

Biogeography in a Changing World

Biogeography in a Changing World

Hampered by a confusing plethora of approaches and methods biogeography is often treated as an adjunct to other areas of study. The first book to fully define this rapidly emerging subdiscipline Biogeography in a Changing World elucidates the principles of biogeography and paves the way for its evolution into a stand-alone field. Drawing on contributions from leading proponents of differing methods within biogeography the book clearly defines the differing sometimes conflicting perspectives in the field and their correspondingly different methodological approaches. This gives readers the opportunity to refocus on a range of issues including the role of biological processes such as vicariance dispersal and extinction in biogeographical explanation the possibility of biogeographical pattern and the role of geological reconstructions in biogeographic explanation. The book also explores the discipline’s current relationship with other disciplines and discusses potential developments.

Surface and Nanomolecular Catalysis

Surface and Nanomolecular Catalysis

Using new instrumentation and experimental techniques that allow scientists to observe chemical reactions and molecular properties at the nanoscale the authors of Surface and Nanomolecular Catalysis reveal new insights into the surface chemistry of catalysts and the reaction mechanisms that actually occur at a molecular level during catalysis. While each chapter contains the necessary background and explanations to stand alone the diverse collection of chapters shows how developments from various fields each contributed to our current understanding of nanomolecular catalysis as a whole. The book describes how the size and shape of materials at the nanoscale can change their chemical and physical properties and promote more efficient reactions with fewer by-products. First it highlights the preparation characterization and applications of heterogeneous and supported metal catalysts. Then it covers the engineering of catalytic processes structure and reaction control and texturological properties of catalytic systems. The authors explain how surface science can elucidate reaction mechanisms and discuss the growing role of high-throughput experimentation and combinatorial approaches in catalysis. From fundamental concepts to future directions Surface and Nanomolecular Catalysis offers a well-rounded compilation of noteworthy developments which will continue to expand and transform our understanding of catalysis particularly in the context of clean energy and environmental applications such as fuel cells.
