Topic N/A About A Research Paper (HCI) Example Topic N/A About A Research Paper (HCI) â€" Essay Example > Millions of users visit the Internet based sources every day or even every hour. In technical colloquialism, it is Human-computer interaction, but the operative part of it is that of mutual utility. The content host needs to see the worthiness of the visitor from an objective (commercial, academic or others) point of view, and similarly the visitor must feel satisfaction and fulfilment of his desires (again commercial, academic or others). Traditionally, the level of engagement and interaction is gauged in terms of the number of visitors and time spent by each visitor to a particular website. However, this criterion becomes less applicable to the websites with academic orientation. Usability of the websiteWe start our journey to the Website, by first of clicking at the Resources. The moment the mouse touches the link, five separate links are immediately suggested. Slightly overlapping the other text, but still with visible. This overlap might impair the perceptibility in a smaller screen, or in the situation of two windows. The same is the situation with all the links at the top of the page. Thus, we can say the web hosts presume only the premeditated and well equipped visitors to reach the site. Given the nature of the site, all the five links (to Resources) seem pretty attractive. However, opening the same link in a separate window gives a better experience. The option of going back to all the aspects of the home page is there, without pressing the backspace button. Four pictures can be seen in the right hand side of the site, lure a casual visitor to click to them and a good enlarged picture, can be easily downloaded. The middle of the page gives a number of themes and offers ‘closer look’, ‘In-Depth Studies’, ‘Magazine’, ‘Imaginary exhibitions’. Each is just a title to a URL with a list of available material. The search link works well. Thus locating and saving a desired picture is not much of a problem. To reach to the database of the site, one needs to first go to the site map. The site map gives really a good view of the contents and here only one can feel free from the intricacies of the dainties of art and can feel free to roam as a free netizen. However, this freedom is short-lived. The path and suitability is smooth till you touch the databases. The page thus open does provide something to read, to see and a lot to explore. But further exploration re-enters into the gawky and regimented world of arts, strictly restricting anybody unfamiliar with the nomenclature. This forces the surfer to go to the help button and consult the calendar. Further, the calendar is available in PDF form only, requiring acrobat reader, sufficient to ward off anybody in rush. Insult to injury is inflicted that ‘non availability’ of searched item is not displayed. The ‘search’ per se may still be possible, but it is sure that no sundry visitor may see, what is in the store.
