Extending the unified modelling language to model complex interactive timeline-based systems (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Smith, I., Turner, P., & McGregor, I. (2002). Extending the unified modelling language to model complex interactive timeline-based systems. In H. Sharp, P. Chalk, J. LePeuple, & J. Rosbottom (Eds.), HCI 2002 (58-61)

The increased take-up of Interactive Television, 3G and broadband networks is effecting a growth in the use of interactive, timeline-based media. This paper will describe how to facilitate the design of linear narrative systems utilising the extensib...

An Affordance-based Framework for CVE Evaluation (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Turner, P., & Turner, S. (2002). An Affordance-based Framework for CVE Evaluation. In X. Faulkner, J. Finlay, & F. Détienne (Eds.), People and Computers XVI - Memorable Yet Invisible (89-103). https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4471-0105-5_6

We argue that a conceptual framework is required to support the practical evaluation of collaborative virtual environments. We propose such a framework based on an extended, three level concept of affordance. The application of the framework is il... Read More about An Affordance-based Framework for CVE Evaluation.

Telling Tales: Narratives Of Classification And Control In The Design Of Taxonomic Software. (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Turner, S., Turner, P., Raguenaud, C., & Kennedy, J. (2002). Telling Tales: Narratives Of Classification And Control In The Design Of Taxonomic Software. In Proceedings of Design Research Society Conference: Common Ground, September, 2002

This paper draws on concepts from the structuralist analysis of narrative to explore aspects of the role of stories in the small group design process. A brief review of relevant narratological concepts is provided. Their application in a preliminar...
