An Evaluation of Mental Workload for Effective Navigation
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Murai, Koji; Hayashi, Yuji – Interactive Technology and Smart Education, 2008
Purpose: This paper aims to propose that the nasal temperature is an effective index to evaluate the mental workload of a navigator for effective navigation. Design/methodology/approach: The evaluation comes from the actual on-board experiment, not simulation. The subject is real bridge teammates; captain, duty officer, and quarter master. The…

Investigating the Human Computer Interaction Problems with Automated Teller Machine Navigation Menus
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Curran, Kevin; King, David – Interactive Technology and Smart Education, 2008
Purpose: The automated teller machine (ATM) has become an integral part of our society. However, using the ATM can often be a frustrating experience as people frequently reinsert cards to conduct multiple transactions. This has led to the research question of whether ATM menus are designed in an optimal manner. This paper aims to address the…

Social Navigation in Web Lectures: A Study of VirtPresenter
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Mertens, Robert; Ketterl, Markus; Brusilovsky, Peter – Interactive Technology and Smart Education, 2010
Purpose: Social navigation is an emerging trend for navigation in hypermedia. With social navigation, users can be guided through large volumes of learning content by cues which integrate the browsing history of past users. Earlier papers have shown that social navigation is suitable for navigation not only in classic hypermedia but also in…
