- 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
