It includes three main components: wire frame construction, interface modification and reconstruction, and block tracing.
The environment provides a graphical model construction interface that is implemented purely in client-side code that runs on users' machines.
The course-construction interface, programmed in ColdFusion, was developed to reduce the cost and time for course development.
The intuitive course-construction interface cues the developer to place titles into each main and subtopic site, and then offers a menu of page designs.
The course-construction interface not only simplified the construction of each chapter but, of equal importance, it also eased modification of OMTT content at any time during the process.
The course-construction interface used to create the OMTT in Neuroscience proved to be a cost-effective and efficient way of delivering the best practices of cyber-education tools in a structured and complementary manner (Alberts and Mayo, 2009).
Furthermore, the modular structure of the OMTT and its assembly via the course-construction interface simplifies the removal and addition of learning exercises, which provides a cost-effective solution for keeping the content found in the OMTT current (Hines et al., 2009).
This latter goal was from two USC achieved through the design of an online course-construction interface that easily incorporated and displayed these resources in a logical course outline format used by most instructors during lectures (Brown and Manogue, 2001; Figure 6).
Human-computer interaction (HCI) is concerned with designing effective interaction between users and computers and the construction of interfaces that support this interaction.
The volume-of-fluid piecewise linear-interface construction (VOF-PLIC) interface-capturing method was adopted to represent the fluid domain and to track the evolution of its free boundaries whereas the continuous surface force (CSF) mode was chosen to model the interfacial physics.
