 * Command Line Interface:**
 * 1) A user interface is were the interaction between humans and machines occurs.
 * 2) Command line interface; Graphical user interfaces and Menu driven inferface.
 * 3) To get to the command line on your computer click on the Start button, click on Run, then type "cmd" in the run box. You will go to a black box called D.O.S. You will also see the command line prompt, this is where you type in D.O.S. commands. You can use D.O.S. commands to do just about anything you can do in Windows except it's more work, you can copy, move, del files, etc. To get out of D.O.S. just type Exit at the command prompt. You need to find yourself a book on D.O.S. commands to know how to work it.
 * 4) It means Disk Opareting System, this is when an OS is in a disk.
 * 5) Advantages :- it can be user-friendly and speed up the user's work.- it can be more attractive for non-technical people.- in general, it looks more professional (but this does not mean it is always the best solution).
 * 6) Disadvantages- when it is not properly built, it can be very difficult to work with.- it generally requires more memory resources than a non-graphical one.
 * 7) [[image:https://encrypted-tbn3.google.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRogZRRMJo98H9FpKsnDZHZCODayT4ZA3WKP1pCtoASdSca0Qka8A width="233" height="174"]]
 * 8) The designer will have to take into account the advantages and disadvantages of the other interfaces so he can avoid the disadvantages on his interface. The easier the U.I is, the most people will try to get it and use it.
 * 9) Identify scenarios/ situations where your User Interface would be the most appropriate. its better to work with CLI when you are working with servers or mainframes in an administrative capacity. A lot of administrative tasks are many times faster with a command line interface. CLI can save a huge amount of time because you dont have to be all the time moving the mouse around and clicking. CLIs also require far less computer resources than GUIs, so they are favored on servers because you want to reserve most of the computer's horsepower for the services it provides to user. In some cases, generating the visuals for a GUI can use up to 80% of the machine's processing capacity, so using a GUI on a server is counterproductive. UNIX and Linux and many other systems allow you to run the system with just a CLI. CLIs are also useful for operating computers remotely, because they use practically no bandwidth, You can manage a dozen machines with as many CLI windows from one PC even on very slow connections, but trying to maintain a dozen GUI windows can easily choke a slow net connection.

> is the ways that we can use the different adventages that computers offers us, and users can modify this interface to customized options. - Franco Isa > the main 3 uaer interfaces are: Graphical user interface, Voice User Interface, Comand Line Interface - Franco Isa > ==== The User a data sent from a pop-up menu and the mouse click makes a function that plots on the selected data axes. - Franco Isa ==== Helpful Link [] > works: Menu driven U.I works giving us specific and limited options to select, it means that you have to select some options to obtain another ones. For example in the case of DVD menu you can just have 3 different options, sometimes there are “Play Movie”, “Set up”, “Scenes”. It makes that people are limited in what they want to choose. > ** You dont need to memorize commands like in a Command Line Interface (CLI). ** > ** Users can use menu,that permit you to explore choices and in effect gain understanding of the program ** > ** Visually appealing ** > ** Good affordance, so conforms well to beginner user model. ** > **-If the menu system is extended is hard to find a specific option. ** will be in constant use should be different from one that is used only occasionally for short periods, Other applications used by your target audience might influence their expectations for an application's behavior. I think the purpose of the application,is to extend the apps,or applications.That mean that they no stay with only some options.and they still making another options. The user interface is where the machine and human meet to work together and do certain functions and activities, it also includes the hardware and the software. The objective of this interaction is the perfect control and function of the machine: the hardware and the software. With the user interface you can manipulate and control the system and also recognize the effects of the manipulation. It has many types and in them we can find some like the touch UI, the visual UI or the graphical UI. The advantages of use a touch user interface are: - The touch user interface is fast; touch screen provide a fast use and access to all the digital media. It also makes faster the service in restaurant, hotels and business because it is faster to carry a electronic reader of credit cards with touch interface. - It makes anybody a expert, it is very simple so every person could use it and according to studies the people feel more comfortable with the devices that are using an touch UI. - In a business and in our life it is very helpful because it reduce costs, it is very simple to use so it helps to avoid paying training to the employees in new technologies and it improves the systems and production accuracy. It also eliminates the cost of the mouse and the keyboard. - It helps you to maintain your information in order and compact because if you use a touch user interface and the device you can recognize that is easier to use the desktop and control the icons and the apps, for example in the iPod you can easily eliminate programs with the touch UI. - It is also durable and easy to clean, this technology resist many years because the updates come with a better touch UI use and better ways to use it in the device like in an IPod, Itunes, and also on Computer programs.

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;">2. The three main types of user interface are:
 * 1) ===<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;">1. <span style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;">It is a visual part of an Operating System that includes a set of commands or menus in which the system allows the users to interact with computer software. It determines how command are given to the computer software and how the data is projected on the screen. ===
 * 1) <span style="color: #222222; font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;">a. Command Line or Driven Interface
 * 2) <span style="color: #222222; font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;">b. Menu Driven Interface
 * 3) <span style="color: #222222; font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;">c. Graphical User Interface (GUI)


 * 1) ===== 3. __ User Interface Technology: __=====

a) __ Gesture Recognition: __
It refers to the movements that are produce by our body parts, which can be interpreted by a computer as commands.

// Example: // One of the most important is the Acceleglove which recognize the sign language. The acceleglove works by using a series of accelerometers on each finger, sensors on the shoulders and elbows and making them send electrical signals to find a connection with the movements. It takes milliseconds for the computer to output the correct word.

It refers to the overlaying data in the real world over real-time images of that world. This means that the data is capture in real-time and then join with the other information.

//<span style="color: #7030a0; font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;">Example: //
<span style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;"> One of the most important is the use of Augmented Reality in a Contact Lens. The interconnector between the eye and the brain is faster than the most advanced internet speed nowadays. This is because the eye perceives more than we can realize, given more expectation such us: millions of tone colors.

<span style="color: #7030a0; font-family: Calibri,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">c) Biometric and Cybernetic Interfaces
<span style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">It refers to the combination of the biological markers in human being’s essence which is biometrics, and the robotic system (including the control and commands) which is cybernetic. This stuff is mostly use for security purposes.

4. List the advantages of these developments in U.I. Advantages of future interfaces:
 * Some of these new interfaces would really useful they are not so complicated.
 * Siftables are this cubes that interact with each other and you can make music, play and even interact with other computers.
 * Interfaces like a new computer from Microsoft in 3D transparent interface, that uses windows 8 that hasn’t come out yet, can help us see what we are doing in 3D.

5. List the disadvantages these developments in U.I. Disadvantages of future interfaces:
 * We don’t really know what we’re getting ourselves into

__**Vilma Un Jan:**__ 6. What key points should any designer of a U.I. take into consideration when they are designing a new one? 7. Identify scenarios/ situations where ONE of the user interfaces you have investigated would be the most appropriate. Siftables can be used in cases of learning for children like maths, games. Many people claim that children learn playing and interacting, and technology is facilitaing it with their simple and complex new creations. As their creator said " Play is our's brain's favorite way of learing"
 * The structure: the design of the interface need to be adjustable to the user. The idea is to help to gave the user a better organization. The model requieres to be clear to understand, have coherence and be recognized by its owners. It is mostly the architecture of the interface.
 * Simplicity: The design should facilitate the simple task otherwise it would not have a purpose. The communication need to be clear and simple in the same language of the user. The faster you find the aplicationsthe better.
 * Visibility: The options and the requiered materials need to be visible. Should not have to have information that would confuse to the user. Good designs do not show so many alternatives with innecessary information.
 * Realimentation: The user need to be updated and informed about the accions, status changes, errors and all revelant warnings that can be interest to it.
 * Tolerance: need to be flexible and tolerant. The user sould be able to undo and redo any aplication presented.
