Abstract
I was fortunate to learn Semiotic Engineering directly from Prof. de Souza when she was a Visiting Scholar at the IBM Almaden Research Center in California in 2007. We took the opportunity to apply the principles of Semiotic Engineering to the redesign of the CoScripter system that I was researching at the time. We published the results of our investigation as “Semiotic Engineering in Practice: Redesigning the CoScripter Interface” (de Souza CS and Cypher A, Semiotic engineering in practice: redesigning the CoScripter interface. In: Proceedings of the working conference on Advanced visual interfaces (AVI’08). ACM, New York, pp 165–172. doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.1145/1385569.1385597, 2008).
