Section II
General Prototype Requirements
Leta Hunt
Prototype General Requirements
* The prototype will demonstrate the appearance of the search and
retrieval screens and windows. It will also present the various search and
display possibilities and sequences.
* The prototype version being proposed will be accessible on a PC compatible laptop
or desktop system (as opposed to an internet/intranet version or a UNIX or
MacIntosh version).
* The prototype screens must fit on a 15" laptop screen with a
resolution of 1024 x 768
* The Graphical User Interface design is provided by the graphics team and must
be replicated exactly.
The GUI specification is provided as series of flash and other graphics
files on CD.
The GUI diagrams (drawings) in the documents are not replacements for the
artists' rendition. The diagrams are for illustration of functions
that could not be provided in the artists' rendition. The artists' rendition,
(rather than the diagrams), is the specification.
* A third party viewer, MrSID by LizardTech, will be used for viewing high
resolution images in the Screen 7, View/Desktop Screen.
Files and Documents Provided
The following documents and files are provided.
* The artists' rendition of the GUI is provided as a series of flash and
other graphics files on CD.
* The InscriptiFact Prototype
Requirements Documents
* Section I - Background and Overview
* Section II - General Requirements - (this document)
* Section III - GUI Design Specification
* Section IV - Screen Navigation
* Appendices - Scenarios
* The metadata for the prototype data will be provided in several Microsoft
Access tables including:
* Corpus -- Full Cataloging
* Text -- Full Cataloging
* Photo--Full Cataloging
* Image Headers for Thumbnail and QuickView (also used for full view)
* The images for the prototype are provided on two zip disks.
For each photo 3 images will be
provided:
* A thumbnail, (128 x 128 pixel
image) in JPEG format with a filename of the following form,
"ISFxxxT.jpg"
* A "QuickView" image (512 x 512 pixels) with a filename of the
following form, "ISFxxxQ.jpg"
* A compressed image in two files, the image with filename (ISFxxxC.ecw) and
the header (ISFxxxC.ers).
(NOTE: The suffixes, T=Thumbnail, Q=QuickView, and C=Compressed)
Content (the images)
The content is presented on two
zip disks containing 109 compressed images, 109 thumbnails (128 x 128 pixel
images) and 109 QuickViews (512 x 512 pixel images).
Those images that will not be
used for prototyping are identified and grayed out in the Screen Navigation
tables in the Requirements Document, Section IV - Screen Navigation.
The images for the prototype
are provided on two zip disks.
For each photo 3 images are
provided:
* A thumbnail, (128 x 128
pixel image) in JPEG format with a filename of the following form,
"ISFxxxT.jpg"
* A "QuickView" image (512 x 512 pixels) with a filename of the
following form, "ISFxxxQ.jpg"
* A compressed image in two files, the image with filename (ISFxxxC.ecw) and
the header (ISFxxxC.ers).

Acceptance Requirements and Testing
There are five elements required for acceptance:
1. Graphical User Interface
2. Full Cataloging Display
3. Screen Navigation
4. Viewer
5. Acceptable Performance
1. The GUI must exactly replicate the
appearance of the artists' rendition.
In order to ensure an artistic design, a graphics team was hired to
produce the GUI design.
The prototype GUI must EXACTLY replicate the appearance of the artists'
rendition.
The design will be evaluated by the means of a grid overlay.
Instructions for displaying the grid are as follows:
Open Adobe Photoshop
Open any of the design jpeg or gif files
Go to the "View" menu in Photoshop
Select "Show Grid"
Go to "View" menu
Select "Show Rulers"
Go to "File"
Select "Preferences"
Select "Guides and Grids"
Set gridlines for every
centimeter
Set 4 subdivisions per centimeter
2. The basic screen navigation sequences
must be demonstrable.
The navigation sequences that will be used for the testing are identified
in:
* The Tables and Charts in the InscriptiFact Prototype Requirements,
Section IV - Screen Navigation
* The Scenarios presented in InscriptiFact Prototype Requirements -
Appendices
3. The metadata for each selected record
must be viewable through the "Full Cataloging Bar".
There are three kinds of records that might be selected by users:
a. Corpus records
b. Text records
c. Photograph records
(See "Definitions" in InscriptiFact Prototype Requirements,
Section I - Definitions, regarding these three types of records.)
The attributes for each record are to be displayed through the GUI
"Full Cataloging Bar"
(See InscriptiFact Prototype Requirements, Section III - GUI Design.)
A Microsoft Access table of the full cataloging elements has been provided
for each of these types of records. (See "List of Files Provided"
in this document.)
4. Each image must be viewable in three resolutions:
* As thumbnails (128 x 128
pixels) in Screen 6, Image Results
* As QuickViews (512 x 512 pixels) in Screen 6, Image Results
* High resolution using the MrSID viewer, in Screen 7, View/Desktop
5. Performance is important for the
success of the prototype. The engineers should advise and otherwise work with
the Implementation Director to optimize performance.
