User Experience and RIAs: How Does It All Come Together?

OneSpring's Laurie Gray to Present at SYS-CON's AJAXWorld RIA Conference & Expo, Oct. 20-22, in San Jose, CA

Oct. 10, 2008 11:00 PM

RIAs provide the promise of an excellent User experience, but the ultimate success of the UX is driven more by the skill of the developer than the tool selection itself. This session will discuss the foundation and importance of the application of cognitive science techniques to the process of designing and building a rich web application.

The presentation will provide:

Overview of Human Factors/Usability and how these techniques have been applied to the web
Basic concepts (heuristics) that should be met in any web application
Resources so that attendees can perform this sort of work independently
