Abstract: n this paper, I discuss some aspects of the possible relationship between participatory design and its implications for the actual end state of the graphical user interface and its capacity for intuitive use. This paper discuss the relation between users’ skills and an employed tool, and how we might support the notion of intuitive action through the user interface in a human-computer interaction context. This paper briefly investigate the possible connection between mutual learning in user/designer relationship, which is a central concept in participatory design and the extent to which the final version of a computer system supports intuitive flow in the interaction between user and tool. This paper suggests that a participatory design approach may have a positive impact on the perceived intuitive use of user interfaces, and that co-location may be a prerequisite for the sufficient exchange of information needed for mutual learning to occur

Abstract: The development of model-based fault detection methods for engineering systems requires a high degree of consistency between the behaviour of mathematical model and the actual system in order to produce reliable results. It means that the mathematical model must be very accurate. Due to the usually complicated equations describing the dynamic behaviour of these systems, some parameters can be roughly estimated based on the steady-state analysis. It is necessary to use alternative approaches that optimise the parameter values and make them more accurate. This paper presents a parameter validation approach that can be used in the case of incomplete information of the system state and improve the quality of a model. The approach is used for the determination of the acceptable deviation limits between model and system.
