Vacant Parking Places System Using WAP Technologies

The aim of this study is to produce an applicable mobile prototype to address the Vacant Parking Places System using WAP Technologies. The prototype provides complete information about the existence of parking system to the customer. The users requirements of mobile parking reservation application and parking services management are elaborated and determents. The study overcomes the limitation of parks in almost every major city in the world. Furthermore, Increase number of private car in the roads. The prototype is evaluated in the term of usability testing. The survey includes 30 respondent and the foundation was (strong; 74.78%), of the respondent found that the system is strong regarding the term of usability.During the project development phases, Unified Modeling Language will be used to module the design

Objective measurements analysis for usability evaluation of mobile applications for deaf people

Usability evaluation is an important element that will enable to identify performance of any system or application.Through identification of these issue, usefulness of a product can be improvised.Many usability models are available to evaluate the system usability.Usability data can be collected in two different method which is objective data and subjective data.This paper present objective data analysis of usability evaluation conducted with deaf people mobile application.The results show that the application evaluated having usability issue in term of performance which needs to be improvised by the developer to produce better functionality application for deaf people

A usability evaluation of mobile application: A review on usability model for the deaf

Usability is an important attribute that need more concentration in determining the production of a successful mobile application.Currently mobile applications for the deaf has increased tremendously with the increase of the usage of mobile phones.However, usability evaluation model that best suits the evaluation for mobile application for the deaf is rather very general. Usability of the mobile application for the deaf is very limited that makes the evaluation more challenging and difficult.This study reviews the current usability models provide guidelines and usability dimensions used by researchers and discuss the trend for future evaluation of mobile applications for deaf.Result shows that usability for mobile application for the deaf are limited. This study helps mobile developers and evaluators in evaluating mobile application for the deaf

A Theory and Practice of Website Engagibility

This thesis explores the domain of website quality. It presents a new study of website quality - an abstraction and synthesis, a measurement methodology, and analysis - and proposes metrics which can be used to quantify it. The strategy employed involved revisiting software quality, modelling its broader perspectives and identifying quality factors which are specific to the World Wide Web (WWW). This resulted in a detailed set of elements which constitute website quality, a method for quantifying a quality measure, and demonstrating an approach to benchmarking eCommerce websites. The thesis has two dimensions. The first is a contribution to the theory of software quality - specifically website quality. The second dimension focuses on two perspectives of website quality - quality-of-product and quality-of-use - and uses them to present a new theory and methodology which are important first steps towards understanding metrics and their use when quantifying website quality. Once quantified, the websites can be benchmarked by evaluators and website owners for comparison with competitor sites. The thesis presents a study of five mature eCommerce websites. The study involves identifying, defining and collecting data counts for 67 site-level criteria for each site. These counts are specific to website product quality and include criteria such as occurrences of hyperlinks and menus which underpin navigation, occurrences of activities which underpin interactivity, and counts relating to a site’s eCommerce maturity. Lack of automated count collecting tools necessitated online visits to 537 HTML pages and performing manual counts. The thesis formulates a new approach to measuring website quality, named Metric Ratio Analysis (MRA). The thesis demonstrates how one website quality factor - engagibility - can be quantified and used for website comparison analysis. The thesis proposes a detailed theoretical and empirical validation procedure for MRA
