Question 2

Describe a navigation diagram.

Accepted Answer

Navigation specifies the sequence of user actions across multiple containers to achieve a goal. A navigation diagram is an adaptation of a statechart diagram that shows what forms or Web pages are displayed in response to application events. We may use all the extension mechanisms of UML to make this diagram more suitable for presenting the flow of the user interface.

C)  user friendly 
D)  command-line 
A)  interactive 
B)  real-time 
C)  user friendly 
D)  command-line

Question 5

Accepted Answer

A) True 
 B)False

Question 6

Logical and physical storyboards are the same and convey the same kind of information.

Accepted Answer

A) True 
 B)False

Question 7

The UI lends itself more to guidelines and rules than any other building block of the information system.

Accepted Answer

Question 11

A virtual information system works on the same principles and has the same structure as the workings and the environment in which humans live.

Accepted Answer

A) True 
 B)False

B)  Consistency 
C)  Credibility 
D)  Navigation 
A)  Multifunction 
B)  Consistency

Accepted Answer

A)  control 
B)  boundary 
C)  utility 
D)  virtual 
A)  control 
B)  boundary 
C)  utility 
D)  virtual

Question 14

The ________ approach enables users to interact with the computer through real-world metaphors.

Accepted Answer

 B)False

Question 16

Describe how to map messages, parameters, and attributes to the user interface.

Accepted Answer

The user interface is the concrete reali

Question 17

Question 18

Decorators, such as colors, fonts, and pictures, contribute directly to the functionality of the user interface.

Accepted Answer

A) True 
 B)False

Question 19

Storyboarding lacks formal notation; that is, no standards exist about frames and their relationships.

Accepted Answer

A) True 
 B)False

Question 20

Storyboards cannot be used to elicit responses and gather requirements.

Accepted Answer

A) True 
 B)False
