For the period considered, the contribution of USI to the UWA project consisted of the following activities:
1. UWA requirements elicitation methodology. Investigation on heuristic, patterns and case studies for assessing the UWA requirements elicitation approach were explored. The refinement and assessment UWA requirements methodology in view of design of the tools for the requirements activity was carried out.
2. Evaluation of UWA design methods. On-going gathering of feedback and responses to the evaluation questionnaire about the UWA design methodologies. New people (from companies and institutions) are contacting USI through the UWA web sites for joining the evaluation activity. These people are given the UWA deliverables and evaluation questionnaires are provided. New results have been in the D26.
3. Usability evaluation of UWA individual design tools. The evaluation has been performed on the tool release v.1.0 available on 10th October 2002, released by ROBOTIKER. The basic features assessed for each tool (requirements, hypermedia, customisation and transaction) correspond to the basic concepts explained in the UWA design methodology deliverables (namely, D6-D7-D8-D9). The usability of the tool has been assessed by means of expert reviews and empirical testing. In both methods, the overall approach adopted has been scenario-based: on the basis of the tool requirements, actual design tasks have been carefully selected for verifying their feasibility by means of the UWA tool.t8.3research and monitoring of the literature about the quality criteria that could be adopted for the evaluation of the UWA integrated environment research and monitoring of the literature about the quality criteria that could be adopted for the evaluation of the UWA integrated environment research and monitoring of the literature about the quality criteria that could be adopted for the evaluation of the UWA integrated environment evaluation of the integrated UWA environment. On the basis of D13 and D19, an overall evaluation of the UWA project results has been carried out by means of the following activities: comparison between the UWA project objectives and the actual results (in terms of tools provided and design methodologies). Main discrepancies have been highlighted and suggestions for improvements have been provided. Furthermore, completing results (which were received later by the test users) of D13 and D19 have been here summarized for completeness purpose.
USI contributed to the organization and the content design of the UWA dissemination workshop in Vienna (11-12 December 2002).t 9.4 contribution to the discussion about possible liaisons with the main standardization bodies.
