ABSTRACT
Our on-line data capture and analysis tools include an event capture program, event data filtering programs, a multimedia data analyzer, and a retrospective verbal protocal recorder for use with the multimedia data analyzer. Off-line observation logging is also supported. Additional plans for development include the integration of an online time-synchronized observation logger, and time-synchronized eyetracking data recording. The tool set provides an integrated multi-source data collection, processing, and analysis system for: 1) comparing and evaluating software applications and prototypes; 2) evaluating software documentation and instructional materials; and 3) evaluating on-line training. The tools currently run on Macintosh computers and under Microsoft Windows. Plans are to port the tools to run under Presentation manager and Motif.

A Comparative Study of Data Cleaning Tools
In the information era, data is crucial in decision making. Most data sets contain impurities that need to be weeded out before any meaningful decision can be made from the data. Hence, data cleaning is essential and often takes more than 80 percent ...
CASE tools: understanding the reasons for non-use
Computer-Aided Software Engineering (CASE) technologies are tools that provide automated assistance for software development [3]. The goal of introducing CASE tools is the reduction of the time and cost of software development and the enhancement of the ...
A data analysis decision support system for the carbon dioxide capture process
This paper presents the development process of an expert decision support system for pre-filtering and analysis of data from the carbon dioxide (CO2) capture process. Chemical absorption has become one of the dominant CO2 capture technologies because of ...
