I'll be in Beijing, the capital of China, between 22-30 July for HCI International 2007 Conference in order to present two papers:
- An Analysis of Involvement of HCI Experts in Distributed Software Development: Practical Issues by Çetin, Verzulli and Frings
- Out of Box Experience Issues of Free and Open Source Software by Göktürk and Çetin
Both papers provide an insight about usability and free software. First paper was prepared during tOSSad project days, giving an in-depth information about how HCI experts and F/OSS developers work. Second paper includes a usability test measuring the out of box experience of Xandros 2.5 distribution which was handled in 2005 in Bilgi University. Almost two years have passed, but the problems are still the same.
Both papers will published by Springer Verlag. However, I also tried to post the papers to opensource.mit.edu with no luck. Upload mechanism didn't allow me to post the papers, and the maintaners were in vacation.
More news as I return back from Bejing in August.
