Let’s start off on a humorous note! This is a song about the Model-View-Controller architecture, performed by James Dempsey of Apple at WWDC 2003.
This is a public diary about our thoughts as we write our book on User Interface Software. We are Dr. Manuel Pérez Quiñones, an Associate Professor of Computer Science at Virginia Tech; Manas Tungare, Ph.D. student in Human-Computer Interaction and 3-time Google intern; and Dr. Pardha Pyla, a Post-Doc at Virginia Tech working on user interfaces and software engineering.
Over time, as we collect our thoughts and write the individual chapters of the book, we plan to post our thoughts here first. Our hope is that this will lead to a symbiotic relationship between you, the readers, and us, the authors.
If you have any comments, suggestions or questions related to the book, please feel free to contact us directly via email. Our contact information is available on our respective web sites, or you may send email to [authors at this domain dot com]. We look forward to hearing from you!
