HCI & Programming

This section contains my works related to Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and also other programming works. Basically, HCI design focuses on how users interact with the interface and makes the product easy to use by most users. I am glad that I have studied HCI since it complements Computer Engineering background.

Web-based email management for email overload

	Duration: October 2004 - April 2005
	Target User: Web-based email users
	Details:
	Master degree (MS in HCI) thesis. The amount of emails has burgeoned due to the fact that many users use mail in a wide range of activities. Although email was originally designed as a communication application, it is wildly used for additional functions that it was not designed for. For example, many users make use of email service for task management and personal archiving. There are many web-based email services such as Yahoo! Mail, Hotmail, and Gmail. These services respond to consumer demands by providing bigger storage space for free. However, it is difficult for users to manage inboxes with the large volume of emails. The intention of this study was to develop the new web-based email interface that handles email overload problem.

IUPUI Mathematics Department - Room Schedule

	Duration: January 2005 - March 2005
	Target User: IUPUI Mathematics Faculties and Students
	Details:
	In many places, such as IUPUI, there are share rooms that more than one person can utilize the room. Usually, a room schedule is managed by note taking (in papers, books, Excel, etc). However, there are a lot of limitations in that approach such as lack of searching and sorting. The room schedule project was developed as a web application that assist faculties to manage their schedule in share rooms. They can view the room schedule by calendar or by sortable table. Students can also view the table to see when and where their instructor will be available. View the Room Schedule Project (Web)
