Recent Question/Assignment

Task
You are to prepare the project scope and initial requirements and assumptions for a new Interface Design project for a SMART Home Heating control panel as outlined in the SMART Home Heating Problem case study.
You are to prepare a Project Brief for this project. The project brief will set the basis for the rest of your assignment work in ITC504.
You should approach this project as a “blue sky” project. That is, you are going to design and develop an interface that is different to those that you have previously worked on. This means that your planning will necessarily be somewhat more diffident as you will be doing research during the planning and design process to achieve your design aims.
Your project brief should include the following sections:
Overview
Vision
Scope
Outcomes
Key assumptions
Objectives, Outputs and Targets
Success Criteria
The project brief should concentrate on the Overview, Vision, Scope, Outcomes and Key Assumptions at this stage. These sections define your vision for the project and should be reasonably well developed.
The Objectives and Success Criteria may not be well known at this stage, but some effort should be made to determine what they are. These will be added to later in the project.
Your project brief is NOT to exceed 2 pages in length.

Rationale
This assignment covers the following objectives for this subject:
be able to explain the relevance of integrating aspects of the human, social and organisational context into the design process;
be able to list and explain the importance of the principles of design that are applicable to the design of an interface;
be able to design a user interface to meet a given set of requirements;
