The ACIA is sponsored by Argus Associates, a leading information architecture consulting firm. Within the next 5 years, all large web sites and intranets will leverage software applications from a wide variety of categories. And, information architects will play an integral role, working closely with business managers, content managers, and software engineers to select, acquire, integrate, and leverage this sophisticated suite of applications.

Now, businesses facing the need to quickly and reliably find useful information in the mountains of unstructured content held in corporate repositories (and made accessible through portals), are looking to taxonomy technology for help. With a taxonomy, "people can automatically see what's there," explains Feldman, director of IDC's document and content technology program. The algorithmic and computational approaches break into the following families: Rule-based: Rule sets contain keywords and...

The Skeptical Internet User Does Not Search 22 November 2000 Our exploratory user study on the use of a major portal site in Belgium shows that a category of "skeptical Internet users" has abandoned searching the web. Emerging and future usability challenges: designing user experiences and user communities 2 February 2000 Our hypothesis is that the notion of the usability of interactive systems depends on the social context in which interactive systems are used.

"Unobtrusive observation" means you observe what test users do and refrain from interacting with them. "Obtrusive observation" means you interact with test users, e.g. by asking questions. The second method is "obtrusive observation", which means you are allowed to explain design decisions, ask questions, or engage the test user in a discussion.

I attended a preconference facilitated by Noel Franus and Christina Wodtke of Carbon IQ (www.carboniq.com) on the topic of usability testing. Since this conference is being attended by "IA's" (information architects), this preconference did not so much discuss and describe what usability testing was but more on how to do it. The first step in usability testing is to learn about the site to be tested.

If web sites are dimensional information spaces, then what do IAs miss by typically presenting artifacts in two-dimensions? The experimental paper and plastic sheet forms in the project test the possibilities for adding physical dimension to paper deliverables by using basic office supplies. The poster will begin by outlining the requirements for a controlled exploration of ways to add dimensionality to common IA paper deliverables.

Any information that is published on the open Internet/WWW is accessible throughout the world. Information published on the internal internet/WWW requires protection commensurate with its sensitivity.

Studies examining the depth and breadth of hypertext structures have consistently found that increasing its depth correspondingly decreases its search efficiency. This study examined hypertext shape by assessing five different tree structures of varying breadths, while keeping the depth invariant at four levels. For explicit targets, the increasing (2 x 2 x 8 x 8) structure facilitated slightly less navigational disorientation than the other structures.
