Currently working on a human performance project with Masitah Ghazali investigating the effects of an assortment of input schemes on target acquistion tasks. It's somewhat disappointing to note that this project started off with a gaming angle, which kind of would be my angle. However the performance monitor we were using (i.e. Fitts' law) fell apart using the input device we had selected. Hopefully the data collected back then will form the basis of a Limits of Fitts Law When Using Input Device X paper, , but just not at the moment. No doubt I'll end up reviewing someone elses paper on the subject like I normally do, #%$*!

As regards to the current project - be fore warned all those attending the Physicality Workshop - we need willing victims *cough volunteers, and you'll arrive just in time for the finished version of the benchmarking application.

And what did we learn from last year? Betting on the misfortune of others pays off quite handsomely - thanks Danny. Supervising the majority of the BSc Computer Science practicals (i.e. Software Engineering, Software Design, Networking and HCI) is a sure way to insanity and my work is still regarded as a form of soul stealing, please, no one cares if Chun-Li provokes a reaction in your level of arousal.

Anyways time to enjoy the spoils of war me thinks, posts will probably be limited this month, have a thesis to write and a course to ruin.
