| | Scientific American: Profile: Humans Unite!: March 1999 |
| | According to Shneiderman, agents and their cyber-kin, which have been promoted most notably by Massachusetts Institute of Technology professor Patti Maes, are a new version of the "mimicry game," the long and undistinguished tradition of making devices that look or work like humans. | | | Shneiderman emphasizes that software should be checked for ease and speed of use as well as for the number of errors it provokes. | | | Maes, for her part, says Shneiderman is attacking a straw man. The goal of agents research, she remarks, is not to mimic human intelligence but to help the user suffering from information overload by providing "simple, understandable, predictable programs" that can act on his or her behalf. |

| | SAP Design Guild -- Book Review: Leonardo's Laptop |
| | Ben Shneiderman's contributions to the user interface design field are numerous and diverse, such as hypertext systems, direct manipulation (a term that was coined by him), information visualization (starfield display, treemap, visible human, and many more...), and the design of large information-abundant Websites. | | | Shneiderman focuses on evolutionary creativity because it offers the perspective of developing mega-creativity: "enable more people to be more creative more of the time." He considers three perspectives on creativity, inspirational, structural, and situational, each of which leads to different requirements for supporting software tools. | | | In the beginning of his book, Shneiderman introduces this concept because it provides the basis for his vision of the new computing, the goals of which he characterizes thereafter. |

| | Based on experience with many systems (Shneiderman, 1992) as well as recent efforts with the Library of Congress's THOMAS (Croft, Cook and Wilder, 1995) and American Memory projects, we propose a four-phase framework for thinking about text-search user interfaces. | | | The suggestions given here are designed to be complementary to ongoing research in information retrieval interfaces and visualization. | | | For example, changing the search-initiation button label from "search" to "query" or "browse" has been shown to slow user performance and lower satisfaction significantly (Mahajan and Shneiderman, 1996). |
