Abstract
In this paper we explore and argue about the possibilities of the Structured User Interface Design SUID methodology as a Lateral Thinking tool for designing user interfaces. The structured and layered fashion of SUID has been reported to have the characteristics of educing and stimulating creativity that is present in Lateral Thinking techniques, which can help designers in user interface-related tasks. When confronted with key concepts of those techniques the methodology appears to be consistent with them and worth of using for finding new sources of innovation.

Design-oriented human-computer interaction
475 Citations2003Daniel Fällman
It is proposed that it needs to acknowledge, first, the role of design in HCI conduct, and second, the difference between the knowledge-generating Design-oriented Research and the artifact-generate conduct of Research-oriented Design.
ACM Transactions on Computer-Human InteractionCreating creativity
429 Citations2000Ben Shneiderman
A four-phase framework for creativity that might assist designers in providing effective tools for users is offered, which proposes eight activities that require human-computer interaction research and advanced user interface design.
Communications of the ACMCreativity support tools
269 Citations2002Ben Shneiderman
Establishing a framework of activities for creative work and identifying the priorities for future research and development in the field of creative work is recommended.
Knowledge-Based SystemsTowards understanding and supporting creativity in design: analogies in a constrained cognitive environment
196 Citations2000Nathalie Bonnardel
Two experimental studies in a creative professional area: non-routine design and analogical reasoning are conducted to show that the emergence of new ideas takes place in a "constrained cognitive environment", and suggest ways to facilitate creative acts from designers.
Understanding design as a social creative process
187 Citations2005Andy Warr, Eamonn O’Neill
It is suggested that research in supporting design should focus on mitigating the effects of these social influences on the creativity of design teams, and a theoretical account of why social creativity should in principle be more productive than individual creativity is presented.

A view on interdisci-plinary creative collaboration inspired by two separate sources is presented, based on a practitioner's experience of creative collaboration in a music and sound design company and a long-standing research program observing the collaboration of artists and technologists during the COSTART artist-in-residency studies at Loughborough University, U.K.
Recognizing creative needs in user interface design
111 Citations2002Michael Terry, Elizabeth D. Mynatt
A set of guidelines for user interface design are developed and demonstrated in three designs intended to support tasks in the domain of image manipulation.

An experimental study of two proposed frameworks: the ecological interface design framework and the function behaviour-state framework, which finds that operators may perform equally well with a function-behaviour-state interface but with a reduced mental workload.

73 Citations2004Yingzi Lin, Wenjun Zhang
The present article reports the critical analysis of the ecological interface design framework and describes the FBS framework, which is an alternative framework called function behavior-state (FBS) which positively supported the findings.
Creativity in design activities
62 Citations1999Nathalie Bonnardel
Suggestions for the development of design support systems are provided, which could facilitate creative acts from designers as well as the adoption of various points of view, which show that, though most stages of design occur individually, these stages are in fact integrated into a collaborative partnership.
A framework that supports collective creativity in design using visual images
59 Citations1999Kumiyo Nakakoji, Yasuhiro Yamamoto +1 more
It is identified that systems for supporting collective creativity need to be based on design knowledge that is contextualized, respectable and trustful, and enables “appropriation” of a design task.
Creativity as a pathway to computer science
51 Citations2008Maria Knobelsdorf, Ralf Romeike
Analysis of computing experiences of students majoring in CS and Bioinformatics finds characteristics of creativity and the question whether creativity forms a possible pathway into the field of Computer Science (CS).

Inspirational images tended to be those that were semantically proximate to the search terms used to retrieve them, however, there were sufficient exceptions to suggest that semantic/conceptual diversity also plays an important role.

Structured user interface design methodology
5 Citations2001Leonel Morales
This extended abstract describes the research in progress to develop a methodology to deploy user interface designs based on a layer-conformed structure that achieves final descriptive designs when all layers are specified.
An Empirical Verification of the Foundations of Structured User Interface Design SUID
3 Citations2008Leonel Morales Díaz, José Luis de León Escobar
The research tried to test the methodology's fundamental supposition: that every information system is devoted to handle a certain set of objects from the real world and that based on the proper identification of that set, the interface can be designed in a layered fashion producing ten different layers, specified in the methodology.

The explorer is constructed to make the designer aware of design-level options, provide a structured context for design, and provide feedback on the consequences of design decisions, to encourage the designer to consider a wider variety of designs.
