The design process requires a solid understanding of the theory behind successful human-computer interaction, as well as an awareness of established procedures for good user interface design, including the ‘usability engineering’ process. Iterative evaluation is an important aspect of this procedure, and we will learn and practice prototyping and evaluation using scenario-based case studies. We will look at specific interface success stories and spectacular failures to learn from past experiences. Students will apply their gained knowledge in a series of practical assignments using the Android ecosystem that highlight selected portions of the design cycle, as well as familiarize them with sound programming practices and effective tools and techniques to create successful user interfaces.

Re-use and Component Based Development
53432
Component based development is the development of components that individually perform one discrete or unique function. These components can be reused and combined to form other components that perform another discrete or unique function. The main objective of component based development is to reduce time and costs related to the development of reusable learning components. Component based Development has already been introduced as a software development approach which is used to reduce software development costs and to decrease the development time to develop software applications..
