This work provides both a theoretical background and practical guidelines in the area of design and developments of interactive multimedia systems. It consists of examples and sample case studies taking the reader through the design and development process steps. The theoretical backbone of the book includes discussion of HCI, particularly user interface design, and other related issues such as usability engineering. The practical issues it looks at include: media integration issues; hypermedia design models; multimedia authoring tools, and the design and development process. The book also includes demo versions of authoring tools and galleries of developed products to give the student insight into what is possible through multimedia.

Interactive systems in the mobile, ubiquitous, and virtual environments are at a stage of development where designers and developers are keen to find out more about design, use and usability of these systems. Ubiquitous Computing: Design, Implementation and Usability highlights the emergent usability theories, techniques, tools and best practices in these environments. This book shows that usable and useful systems are able to be achieved in ways that will improve usability to enhance user experiences. Research on the usability issues for young children, teenagers, adults, and the elderly is presented, with different techniques for the mobile, ubiquitous, and virtual environments.
