Open-HEREDEUX
OPEN-HEREDEUX is the short name that we use to refer to the project called: “OPEN HEuristic Resource for Designing and Evaluating User eXperience in interactive systems”. It will enable UX experts to design and evaluate UX in a semi automates way.
OPEN-HEREDEUX is divided into four components:
- The Open Repository of heuristics: The main goal of this component is to manage information. We should provide the Repository with all the needed information to achieve the complete and minimum set of heuristics for a specific interactive system. and it also considers all UX aspects of a design phase or evaluation process for a specific interactive system.
- The Adviser of heuristics: The main aim of the Adviser of heuristics is to propose the most convenient list of heuristics to be used (for the specific system to be analyzed), such as recommendation principles in a design phase or such as evaluation principles in a UX evaluation based on heuristics.
- The Scorer of heuristics: If we want to use the adviser’s set of heuristics to evaluate the UX, we can carry out the evaluation using the Scorer. It helps UX evaluators in their process of scoring the list of heuristics.
- The Results Analyzer: This component waits for the extraction of quantitative and qualitative results.
