“…In fact, the constant companionship of these devices is so pervasive that it does not seem outof-place to see a smartphone, tablet, or similar device in nearly every type of setting. As a result, designers seem to be using skeumorphisms of existing mapping interfaces to migrate [53] users to the game map interfaces of their gameworlds. The most direct example of this growing trend is Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild [LZ:BW].…”

Maps in video games have grown into complex interactive systems alongside video games themselves. What map systems have done and currently do have not been cataloged or evaluated. We trace the history of game map interfaces from their paper-based inspiration to their current smart phone-like appearance. Readonly map interfaces enable players to consume maps, which is sufficient for wayfinding. Game cartography interfaces enable players to persistently modify maps, expanding the range of activity to support planning and coordination. We employ thematic analysis on game cartography interfaces, contributing a near-exhaustive catalog of games featuring such interfaces, a set of properties to describe and design such interfaces, a collection of play activities that relate to cartography, and a framework to identify what properties promote the activities. We expect that designers will find the contributions enable them to promote desired play experiences through game map interface design.

“…The context describes a recurring set of situations in which the pattern can be applied, for example, to the use of different computing platforms (Web, GUI, Mobile applications, etc.) (Javahery et al, 2004). Related patterns can be combined to form pattern languages, resulting in both a lingua franca for design (Erickson, 2000) and pattern-oriented design methods (POD).…”

User experience is an umbrella term referring to a collection of information that covers the user's behavior and interaction with a system. It is observed when the user is actively using a service or interacting with information, includes expectations and perceptions, and is influenced by user characteristics and application or service characteristics. User characteristics include knowledge, experience, personality and demographics. We propose a process and supporting software tool called Persona to Pattern (P2P) Mapper, which guides designers in modeling user experiences and identifying appropriate design patterns. The three-step process is: Persona Creation (a representative persona set is developed), Pattern Selection (behavioral patterns are identified resulting in an ordered list of design patterns for each persona), and Pattern Composition (patterns are used to create a conceptual design). The tool supports the first two steps of the process by providing various automation algorithms for user grouping and pattern selection combined with the benefit of rapid pattern and user information access. Persona and pattern formats are augmented with a set of discrete domain variables to facilitate automation and provide an alternative view on the information. Finally, the P2P Mapper is used in the redesign of two different Bioinformatics applications: a popular website and a visualization tool. The results of the studies demonstrate a significant improvement in the system usability of both applications.

Network-Centric Collaboration and Supporting Frameworks

Within the life cycles of Virtual Enterprises, there are usually periods where representatives of different organisations collaborate in creative ways to set guidelines for the operational stages of the VE. Examples of what has to be agreed or negotiated include legal contracts, financial terms, human responsibilities. Joint processes to be followed, common terminology, data formats and common software. Tliis collaboration may be a mixture of synchronous (physical or virtual meetings) and asynchronous activities. This position paper assesses the gap between what support is required and what is available in currently available tools, and suggests a number of key developments to the state of the art.
