Life Cycle of Multimedia Software Systems (MSS)
MSS requires synergy between computational and output generation process with human cognitive and gestural processes
Prevent users getting lost in MSS virtual space and perform incorrect actions
End users not experts in CS - development of new techniques in MSS design, implementation, and evaluation
Evaluation of MSS must take into account it usability, apart from algorithmic and computational aspects
MSS should be considered as source for new applications and improvements if interaction technologies…not the final stage of its life cycle
Approach to MSS development with aim for consistency between user’s notation and notation adopted for human-MSS interaction, limited to visual messages displayed on screen - Visual Interactive System (VIS)
