Towards a Model of Information Scatter: Implications for Search and Design (2008)
Suresh K. Bhavnani, Frederick A. Peck
Recent studies suggest that users often retrieve incomplete healthcare information because of the complex and skewed distribution of facts across relevant webpages. To understand the causes for such...
Leading Indicators of CAD Experience (2008)
Suresh K. Bhavnani, James H. Garrett, Doris S. Shaw
Current interfaces and help facilities of CAD systems are not designed to respond to a user’s performance. To develop such adaptive environments, a better understanding of the indicators of CAD...
Towards Active Assistance (2008)
Suresh K. Bhavnani, James H. Garrett, Ulrich Flemming, Doris S. Shaw
The exploding functionality of current computer-aided engineering (CAE) systems has provided today’s users with a vast, but under-utilized collection of tools and options. For example,...
Scatter Networks: A New Approach for Analyzing Information Scatter on the Web (2006)
Adamic, Lada A., Bhavnani, Suresh K., Shi, Xiaolin
Information on any given topic is often scattered across the web. Previously this scatter has been characterized through the distribution of a set of facts (i.e. pieces of information) across web...
Strategy hubs: Domain portals to help find comprehensive information (2006)
Bhavnani, Suresh K., Bichakjian, Christopher K., Johnson, Timothy M., Little, Roderick J. A., Peck, Frederick A., Schwartz, Jennifer L., ...
Recent studies suggest that the wide variability in type, detail, and reliability of online information motivate expert searchers to develop procedural search knowledge . In contrast to prior...

Peck, Frederick A., Bhavnani, Suresh K., Blackmon, Marilyn H., Radev, Dragomir R.
In prior work we observed that expert searchers follow well-defined search procedures in order to obtain comprehensive information on the Web. Motivated by that observation, we developed a prototype...
Strategy Hubs: Next-Generation Domain Portals with Search Procedures (2003)
Suresh K. Bhavnani, Christopher K. Bichakjian, Timothy M. Johnson, Roderick J. Little, Frederick A. Peck, Jennifer L. Schwartz, ...
Current search tools on the Web, such as general-purpose search engines (e.g. Google) and domain-specific portals (e.g. MEDLINEplus), do not provide search procedures that guide users to form...

The strategic use of complex computer systems (2000)
Suresh K. Bhavnani, Bonnie E. John
Several studies show that despite experience, many users with basic command knowledge do not progress to an efficient use of complex computer applications. These studies suggest that knowledge of...
The strategic use of complex computer systems (2000)
Suresh K. Bhavnani, Bonnie E. John
5 A dominant goal of the Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) field has been to design facile interfaces that reduce the time to learn computer applications. This approach was expected to enable users to...
The Strategic Use of CAD: An Empirically Inspired, Theory-Based Course (1999)
Suresh K. Bhavnani, Bonnie E. John, Ulrich Flemming
The inefficient use of complex computer systems has been widely reported. These studies show the persistence of inefficient methods despite many years of experience and formal training. To counteract...
From Sufficient to Efficient Usage: An Analysis of Strategic Knowledge (1997)
Can good design guarantee the eflicient use of computer tools? Can experience guarantee it? We raise these questions to explore why empirical studies of real-world usage show even experienced users...
Exploring the unrealized potential of computer-aided drafting (1996)
Despite huge investments by vendors and users, CAD productivity remains disappointing. Our analysis of real-world CAD usage shows that even after many years of experience, users tend to use...
