GUI Releases of Publication Management (PubMan)[edit]
Example of Search Results[edit]
GUI without UIE involvement (PubMan R1.x)[edit]
No dedicated UI work has been done for these series of releases.
GUI V1 (Preliminary layout and design)[edit]
First user interface patterns were described and users were interviewed. User interface development and visual information architecture was not applied for the releases of PubMan R2 and R3.
GUI V2[edit]
PubMan R4 was the first user interface with dedicated interface development, information architecture and usability evaluation.
GUI V2[edit]
The flexible UI allows the adoption to the new MPG design with little effort. However the existing appearance was kept and is available in Firefox as an alternative stylesheet. 3 series of usability interviews were conducted as part of a usability lifecycle. From R4 on many interface improvements have been done based on usability interviews.
GUI V3[edit]
Future releases may profit from interface components built by UIE. A major rework of interface patterns for scientific use will consider new technologies of HTML5 and more layout flexibility.
