Navigation: within and beyond the metaphor in interface design. (2003)
Book Chapter
McCall, R., & Benyon, D. (2003). Navigation: within and beyond the metaphor in interface design. In K. Hook, D. Benyon, & A. J. Munro (Eds.), Designing Information Spaces: The Social Navigation Approach (355-384). Springer-Verlag. https://doi.org/10.1007/

Over the last few years we have been exploring an alternative conceptual isation of human-computer interaction (HCl) that sees HCl as the navigation of information spaces (Benyon and Höök, 1997). As a corollary cognitive engineers can be seen as the... Read More about Navigation: within and beyond the metaphor in interface design..

Channelling expertise from Napier’s HCI group – human-centred knowledge transfer. (2003)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
McEwan, T., Benyon, D., & Turner, S. (2003). Channelling expertise from Napier’s HCI group – human-centred knowledge transfer. In H. Johnson (Ed.), HCI 2003 - Designing for Society

The scope of the activities of Napier University’s HCI Group includes technology transfer, which led recently a national award. UCD is a typically mature set of ideas now ready for transfer, but as technology transfer gives way to knowledge transfer,...

Recreating the Botanics: towards a sense of place in virtual environments. (2003)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Turner, S., Turner, P., Carroll, F., O'Neill, S., Benyon, D., McCall, R., & Smyth, M. (2003, June). Recreating the Botanics: towards a sense of place in virtual environments. Paper presented at 3rd UK Conference of the Environmental Psychology Network

The EC funded project BENOGO seeks to re-create real places using photo-realistic immersive virtual reality technology and in so doing investigates the nature of presence and sense of place in such environments. We discuss the first stages in our... Read More about Recreating the Botanics: towards a sense of place in virtual environments..

Investigating design issues in household environments. (2003)
Journal Article
Baillie, L., Benyon, D., Macaulay, C., & Petersen, M. G. (2003). Investigating design issues in household environments. Cognition, Technology and Work, 5, 33-43. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10111-002-0116-5

This paper argues that the current involvement of end users in the design of technological artefacts is too superficial. It is common to involve people in requirements generation, but rarely in product inception or design. A study is reported involvi...
