This website was restored in March 2007 by Richard Brown, M.S., Computer and Information Sciences, University of North Florida, 2005. Richard repaired and refined code that had been written for an earlier version of the Red Hat Linux operating system by Dipti Mandalia, M.S. in Computer Science, 2004, University of Colorado at Boulder.

Please try ACWW, the new, much more automated web-based interface for doing the Cognitive Walkthrough for the Web (CWW): http://autocww.colorado.edu/~brownr/ACWW.php. A huge thank-you from all CWW researchers and other users to Richard Brown, who shares our enthusiasm for CWW and volunteered to create the much more automated ACWW web-based interface as his thesis for his 2005 M.S. degree in Computer and Information Sciences at University of North Florida.
No login required to use ACWW.
ACWW, step 1: Enter one or more user goals.
ACWW, step 2: Enter the headings/links for one or more webpages.
ACWW, step 3-4: Designate webpages for each goal and correct heading(s) and correct link(s) for each goal on each webpage
ACWW, step 5a: Select the LSA semantic space and other options to define how you want ACWW to analyze the input.
For optimal efficiency: At step 5 you can enter multiple analyses for the same input set. This gives you the option to run the same set of goal(s) and webpage(s) in two or more different LSA semantic spaces and/or with two or more different sets of parameters for elaborating the heading/link tests in each semantic space.
ACWW, step 5b: Enter e-mail address where you want ACWW to e-mail the results.
ACWW will e-mail each set of results as a separate .zip compressed directory attached to a separate e-mail.
