Designers exert substantial effort to define an intended user experience (UX) for a product, service or system. However, discontinuities can arise when the actual UX of users differs from the design intent. This paper presents a `Semantic Discontinuity Detection' (SDD) method capable of locating discontinuities between (i) realized product semantics, based on users' initial visual impression of a product, and (ii) intended product semantics, based on the originating designer's visual product expression. The experimental design includes a new technique termed 'Semantic Network Clustering' (SNC) to organize diverse product appraisal lexicon. Data generated by the method provides evidence to assist re-designing for reduced semantic discontinuity. The method is suggested to be suitably agile for a wide range of UX intent-realization research.

User evaluation of HCI concepts for defining product form
Şener Pedgley, Bahar (Elsevier BV, 2008-01-01)
A complaint amongst industrial designers is that the human-computer interaction (HCI) of computer-aided design (CAD) systems does not fit their needs for defining product form. This paper disseminates research to identify and address the shortfalls. A strengths and weaknesses analysis of three modelling media (foam, CAD, FreeForm((R))) is reported and used to influence the design of 11 novel HCI concepts for form creation. Expert users are found to prefer 'virtual workshop' and 'intelligent environment' con...
An evaluation of haptic feedback modelling during industrial design practice
Evans, M; Şener Pedgley, Bahar; WALLACE, D; CHESHIRE, David (Elsevier BV, 2005-09-01)
Whilst new technologies in designing and rapid prototyping offer demonstrable benefits, their use can remove the potential for the designer to actively engage in the definition of form through tactile interaction with a physical material (as when working with foam or clay). This paper investigates the use of a haptic feedback device to facilitate interaction with virtual geometry and provide the designer with tactile cues during product modelling. The study concludes that limitations in the modelling capabi...
User requirements for analogical design support tools: Learning from practitioners of bio-inspired design
Töre Yargın, Gülşen; Crilly, Nathan (Elsevier BV, 2018-09-01)
When designers develop biologically-inspired design (BID) solutions, they are engaging in a process of analogical design. Software tools have been developed to support analogical design processes, presenting designers with information to help in the construction of useful analogies. However, the requirements for such tools have not been explicitly informed by accounts of practitioners' experiences. To address this, interviews were conducted with 14 expert practitioners in BID to understand how they find and...
Composing semantic Web services under constraints
Karakoc, E.; Karagöz, Pınar (Elsevier BV, 2009-10-01)
Web service composition is an inevitable aspect of Web services technology, which solves complex problems by combining available basic services and ordering them to best suit the problem requirements. Automatic composition gives us flexibility of selecting best candidate services at composition time satisfying QoS requirements: this would require the user to define constraints for selecting and composing candidate Web services. In this work, a Web service composition approach is presented in which a rich se...
Promoting sustainability through behavior change: A review
COŞKUN, AYKUT; Zimmerman, John; Erbuğ, Çiğdem (Elsevier BV, 2015-11-01)
Over the last decade, the design research community has become increasingly interested in promoting more sustainable behaviors through the design of new products and services. We conducted a literature review to help advance this growing research area. The review characterizes the current state by identifying conceptual studies that proposed strategies, frameworks, toolkits, and guidelines for behavior change. It also documents empirical studies that investigate opportunities for behavior change by proposin...
