• User Experience Design at Endeca

  by Tony Russell-Rose

  Endeca was an early pioneer of faceted navigation systems, and made its name selling enterprise search and business intelligence applications. You’ve probably used Endeca’s search UIs on sites like dabs.com, hmv.com and autotrader.co.uk.

  Tony Russell-Rose is User Experience Manager & Principal Consultant at Endeca. We haven’t yet had final confirmation on Tony’s talk topic, but it will most likely to relate to the Endeca User Interface Design Pattern Library or the Dimensions of Search Experience.

• What a UX Designer needs to know about Solr

  by Glenn Jones

  Solr is a popular open source enterprise search platform from the Apache Lucene project. Glenn Jones’s talk will introduce Solr from a User Experience Designer’s point of view. It will take a look at how Solr’s faceted search can be used to design powerful language-based features:- from user-driven tagging to autocompetion. Also, the talk will try to answer the question of what kind of User Interfaces Solr tends to lends itself to. This is a fairly introductory talk aimed at a non-technical audience.
