Typography is a major part of the graphical user interface (GUI). Good user interface design depends on our understanding of how type works as a visual system. In this article, we summarize the typographic principles that were developed through print practice and show how they translate and expand within the electronic medium. We define typography as a dynamic system of contrasts resulting from the relationship of the type (its color, form, rhythm, and style) to its background. We then explain how to manipulate these contrasts to design effective GUI systems and presentations of text on the computer screen. We conclude by outlining the limitations and advantages of electronic type.

Christopher Columbus didn't just point his boat at the sunset to discover America He'd heard an old fisherman in the Azores (about a third of his way into the Atlantic) tell of a vast land to the West The fisherman knew because he had seen it when a ferocious easterly blew him off course several years before - Experience with Tcl-Tk for scientific and engineering visualization Kernighan B.W.
This paper relates experience gained while building a graphical user interface for a system that helps design and implement indoor wireless communications facilities In this paper, I will describe this interface briefly, and draw some conclusions about what works well and what does not - Wireless sensor network designs Hac A.
The emergence of compact, low-power, wireless communication sensors and actuators in the technology supporting the ongoing miniaturization of processing and storage, allows for entirely new kinds of embedded system These systems are distributed and deployed in environments where they may not have been designed into a particular control path, and are often very dynamic - Introduction to Jackson design method. JSP and a little JSD Ourusoff N.
This text evolved from a long-standing interest in Jackson methodology that began when I learned, as a programmer-analyst at the World Health Organization, to use JSP to specify programs that were subsequently coded by other programmers Later, I practiced JSP as a programmer involved in validating population census data for Senegal and Giuine-Bisau
