GUI/Prototype Design
15 September 2006 by Tam.
When we met with Dr. Paul this Thursday, we talked mainly about putting together some kind of prototype of the basic flow of information through the website. (I mean the part of the website that is the actual “product”, not the grant project portion.) What is a user trying to do? How do they move through it? What kinds of screens come up?
We talked some about the design also in terms of what makes things confusing or not.
Meanwhile, I got Visual Studio installed and have looked through it some. And I checked out a big stack of library books that seemed relevant.

Welcome to the Diatrack Project Journal
8 September 2006 by Tam.
Olga, Dr. Paul, and I have been awarded a grant under the CREU Program for our project, which we call Diatrack. (It has a longer name too.) One requirement of our grant is that we each keep a weekly journal, and we’ve decided to do this in the form of a blog, which will also let us share ideas and communicate with each other more efficiently than by email alone.
So far, we have (of course) the project proposal that we submitted for the grant, and a draft Statement of Work. I at least am eager to get into actually working on making some type of a working web application (a prototype at least) rather than spending too long doing a ton of planning. A school year is really a very short time when you’re trying to accomplish something.
I’ve mostly done Java programming in school, with small dabbles into C++. Olga and I would like to experiment with trying to do this project using MS Visual Studio 2005 and ASP.NET. I have this software on my computer but have not actually opened it yet. I hope to put in some hours this weekend learning what my options are for working with it and how it might facilitate the coding part of the project.
If you’d like to see our Statement of work, here it is: Statement of Work (PDF)
