Sinossi
How to understand and program interactive devices so that they are reliable and easy to use; includes wide-ranging programming insights, tools, and code.
Interactive systems and devices, from mobile phones to office copiers, do not fulfill their potential for a wide variety of reasonsnot all of them technical. Press On shows that we can design better interactive systems and devices if we draw on sound computer science principles. It uses state machines and graph theory as a powerful and insightful way to analyze and design better interfaces and examines specific designs and creative solutions to design problems. Programmerswho have the technical knowledge that designers and users often lackcan be more creative and more central to interaction design than we might think. Sound programming concepts improve device design.
Press On provides the insights, concepts and programming tools to improve usability. Knowing the computer science is fundamental, but Press On also shows how essential it is to have the right approaches to manage the design of systems that people use. Particularly for complex systems, the social, psychological and ethical concernsthe wider design issuesare crucial, and these are covered in depth.
Press On highlights key principles throughout the text and provides cross-topic linkages between chapters and suggestions for further reading. Additional material, including all the program code used in the book, is available on an interactive web site. Press On is an essential textbook and reference for computer science students, programmers, and anyone interested in the design of interactive technologies.
