Anslow, Craig, Marshall, Stuart, Noble, James and Biddle, Robert (2011): SourceVis: a tool for multi-touch software visualization. In: Proceedings of the 2011 ACM International Conference on Interactive Tabletops and Surfaces 2011. pp. 264-265.

“Most software visualization systems and tools are designed from a single-user perspective and are bound to the desktop and Integrated Development Environments (IDEs). These design decisions do not allow users to easily navigate through software visualizations or to analyse software collaboratively. We have developed SourceVis, a collaborative multi-touch software visualization prototype for multi-touch tables. In this paper we describe the visualizations and interaction capabilities of our prototype.”

Anslow, Craig, Marshall, Stuart, Noble, James, Tempero, Ewan and Biddle, Robert (2010): User evaluation of polymetric views using a large visualization wall. In: Proceedings of the ACM Symposium on Software Visualization 2010. pp. 25-34.

“There are few visualization techniques for displaying complex software systems with large numbers of packages and classes. One visualization technique is the System Hotspots View, whose effectiveness has yet to be validated by any empirical studies. We have conducted a user evaluation to see whether participants of our modified System Hotspots View using a large visualization wall can accurately identify key measurements and comparisons in the underlying software system. The results of our user evaluation indicate that participants were able to effectively use our modified System Hotspots View to explore the example domain: version 1.6 of the Java API. Our observations also indicate that there are issues around interacting with the visualization wall.”

Ruan, Haowei, Anslow, Craig, Marshall, Stuart and Noble, James (2010): Exploring the inventor's paradox: applying jigsaw to software visualization. In: Proceedings of the ACM Symposium on Software Visualization 2010. pp. 83-92.

“Software visualization research has typically focussed on domain specific tools and techniques. In this paper, we evaluate applying a general purpose visual analytics tool Jigsaw to visualize the JHotDraw open source software system. We describe how Jigsaw can be applied to visualize software, and show how it can support some program comprehension tasks.”

Rankin, John, Anslow, Craig, Noble, James, Chawner, Brenda and Gordon, Donald (2009): Wikipublisher: a print-on-demand Wiki. In: Proceedings of the 2009 International Symposium on Wikis 2009. p. 25.

“Web and print exist as two solitudes: printed web pages often disappoint and converting print documents into good web pages is hard. A wiki makes it easy for authors to create rich web content, but is little help if readers wish to print the results. Wikipublisher lets readers turn wiki pages or page collections into print, with a quality better than most word processing documents. This lowers the time and cost of creating online and print versions of the same content, with no loss of quality in either medium.”

“3D web software visualization has always been expensive, special purpose, and hard to program. Most of the technologies used require large amounts of scripting, are not reliable on all platforms, are binary formats, or no longer maintained. We can make web software visualization of object-oriented programs cheap, portable, and easy by using Extensible (X3D) 3D Graphics, which is a free open standard. In this paper we outline our experience with X3D and discuss the suitability of X3D as an output format for software visualization.”

Barr, Pippin, Noble, James and Biddle, Robert (2007): Video game values: Human-computer interaction and games. In Interacting with Computers, 19 (2) pp. 180-195.

“Abstract Current human-computer interaction (HCI) research into video games rarely considers how they are different from other forms of software. This leads to research that, while useful concerning standard issues of interface design, does not address the nature of video games as games specifically. Unlike most software, video games are not made to support external, user-defined tasks, but instead define their own activities for players to engage in. We argue that video games contain systems of values which players perceive and adopt, and which shape the play of the game. A focus on video game values promotes a holistic view of video games as software, media, and as games specifically, which leads to a genuine video game HCI.”

“Preliminary studies indicate that games can be effective vehicles for persuasion. In order to have a better chance at persuading target audiences, however, we claim that it is best to design with the background culture of the intended audience in mind. In this paper, we share our insights into the differences of perception between New Zealand (NZ) Europeans and Maori (the indigenous people of NZ), regarding smoking, smoking cessation, and social marketing. Based on our findings, we discuss how we have designed two different versions of culturally relevant persuasive game about smoking cessation, one aimed at a NZ European audience, the other aimed at a Maori audience.”

“Video games are currently not well understood from an HCI perspective. As opposed to the standard task-based view of interaction, video game interaction takes the form of play. In this paper we offer an analysis of a form of gameplay we call "playing the interface." By understanding play as a kind of interaction with software, we can move toward a video game-specific HCI.”
