Navigation multi-vues dans les résultats d'une recherche multi-critères

Abstract

The eParticipation project, carried out jointly by the institute of information and communication systems (ISIC) at haute école Arc Ingénierie in Switzerland and BEDAG Informatik AG company, aims at developing an eDemocracy integrated platform covering a large range of electronic participative processes. In addition to its functional objectives, the project attaches a major importance to the ergonomics and the attractivity of the platform. Thus, various innovative mechanisms of notification, visualization, navigation and connection to social software were implemented in order to increase the acceptability of the platform by the various targeted users (citizens, authorities, organizations, political parties). This article presents an experiment of designing a graphical user interface providing multiple synchronized views for the visualization of a broad list of results of a multi-criteria search. The objective was to test various possible complementary solutions, making it possible to the user to grant more weight to certain criteria compared to others and to adapt their navigation and their visualization consequently.
