away on Thursday. Steven Castellucci
will be giving the lecture. Also, no
office hours.
Jan 31,
2012 – Here are the
slides for topic #1, The Human, 01-TheHuman.pdf,
which I forgot to post earlier.
As well,
here are the slides for topic #2, The Computer, 02-TheComputer.pdf. We are not yet finished this topic, but I
thought it might be useful to post the slides now. They might be updated as we work our way
through this topic.
Finally, click here to download a zip file containing the Java
programs BuildKeystrokes,
KSPCWords, and T9, which were demo’d in class last
Thursday. A number of people have asked
for these programs, so here they are. There
are a few supporting files as well. To
use these, first do a compile all (javac
*.java). For each program, there is command-line help
to get you started. Also the
word-frequency dictionary file, d1-wordfreq.txt (or something equivalent) is required. It is contained in the zip. Recall that using
the T9 program
requires you to first build a word-freq-keystroke file using BuildKeystrokes.
Good luck.

2012 – Here are the

As
mentioned in class, your homework is to download and read a recent paper from
the ACM SIGCHI Conference Proceedings.
Pick a paper on any topic you find interesting. I’ll ask each person to say a few things
about their paper on Tuesday. To
download a paper, go to the ACM Digital
Library, click on “Proceedings” and then search for “SIGCHI” until you find
the links for the “Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems” (the
formal name for the CHI conference).
Jan 3,
2012 – Please try to
read the handout (“Historical Perspective”) before Thursday’s class. Also, if you spot any typos or errors in the
handout, please make annotations on the handout and show these to me. A number of typos or errors have already been
pointed out to me – greatly appreciated.
See you Thursday.
