"Ten Best" IBM technical report on the subject); also
identified areas of behavioral research interest, proposed a set of flexible
software services to allow testing and implementation of alternative
interface designs; designed and initiated a series of studies to compare
various pointing devices (e.g., mouse, step keys) in different task contexts

interactions; designed and implemented communications systems hardware and
software; created easy-to-use file management and tutorial software for
first-time and discretionary users of computers; designed and wrote computer
software for processing unconstrained, typed natural language inputs; developed
what is now a widely-used
empirical simulation approach for designing software applications
and
coined the terms "Oz Paradigm" or "Wizard of Oz" as a metaphor to explain it.
(Professor Alphonse Chapanis)
At the University of California at Santa Barbara, California: --
1975-1978 Consultation; As a member of the Chancellor's Physical Planning and
Bicycle Safety Committees, designed new traffic signs and flow patterns
consistent with international standards for a large bicycle population
(25,000 movements per day on campus), created and evaluated a Job Performance
Aid for the University Police Department's use in theft reporting and stolen
goods recovery. (Charles Overbey, Chief Darry Bowles)
