UI and Dashboards

  • The following Process was followed to create the first UI mock ups that would eventually be passed to UI developers for creation.

Note : This could be done in Vienna

Step 1

Identify the Users Involved.

They will need both interfaces to make the application run and dashboards to let them know how the process is running

  • Local Producer
  • Local Electricity Company
        Marketing / PR
        Executive Mgt
        Finance
  • Grid Operator

Step 2

Think about the types of technologies we could use to create the UI's

- Trend Graphs
- Widgets
- WebForms
- Simulation and Predication
- Drilldown

Step 3

Identify the User Interfaces

Operations

  • Request to become a local supplier
  • Approval for request
  • Usage Profile Preference*
  • Report on Billing

Dashboards

  • Net Usage
  • Trends and Predications
  • Local Producer*
    -Cost / Price*
    -Produce or Consume
    -Average - where am I at?
    -Simulations / what if*
    -Energy saving tips or WIKI help
    -Personal trend / week or day
    -High and low rates
    -Average trend
    -http://firstlook.3tier.com/ - estimates
  • Grid:
    -Quantity going out or in

Step 4

Select One Operational Screen and One Dashboard to create

  • Net Usage and simulation

Step 5

We created these UI mock ups using VC 7.2

VC Model for usage and simulation

The screens generated from the above

Embedded Climate website

Usage Preferences and warnings

Assumptions

  • We assume all data we require can be made available to the UI in a timely way
  • BPM can give notification of outages or emergencies
