Welcome to UIE[edit]
Human Centered Design
The UIE Team actively participates in the release process of applications, with influence on scope, design and implementation. UIE shapes usability, accompanying all phases from requirements to specification and productive deployment.
Detailed evaluation of the human machine interface is an effective method for designing a better user experience.
Fields of work[edit]
Interface Conception & Design by Prototyping
From early drafts to productive use, each interface is designed and visualized using interface prototypes to provide an outlook on the solution at an early point in time. Short iteration cycles enable usability evaluation right from the beginning. Optimal information architecture and metaphors can be designed in close cooperation with users, making usability more predictable.
Analysis & Evaluation
Detailed evaluation of the human machine interface is an effective method for designing a better user experience. Modern web applications are expected to deliver a high degree of usability. User participation within the development process is essential to meet those expectations. To balance the developer’s perspective, proven methods such as workshops and usability tests are applied to ensure the necessary degree of user participation in interface development.
Applied Methods
- UIE Workshops
- Expert Interviews
- Usability Interviews
Interface Development
Within the institutes of the Max Planck Society there are many different needs for new or improved software solutions. It is almost impossible to build individual GUIs on top of them. Interfaces developed by UIE use basic patterns, based upon a style guide for web applications. As far as possible, new services are built on reusable components, so that new interface elements will be implemented along with proven ones. Every component has a defined pattern, css definitions and (JavaScript) behaviour and is documented in detail.
