What Does This Prove?

  • This proves that the MICE environment can be used to facilitate the development of alternative user interfaces to other systems.
  • In this case, instead of the traditional approach of making an interface more graphical and flexible, the interface to the Port Authority web site was made simpler.
  • By taking out the graphics and additional controls, the interface to the site was made suitable for a mobile interface.
  • The graphics and redundant controls and information were effectively eliminated (all we need to know when we're on the move is when the next bus is coming).
