Giuliana Rubbia, Marco Padula, Angela Zerga · 1998
The paper discusses a concrete WWW application providing historical seismicity data of the Italian area. The application is user-centered in that it makes data available through working metaphors adopted by domain experts who cooperated in interface prototyping and testing. An example of data and software re-use is given, as a tool for timely disseminating specific information during the seismic crisis of September/October 1997 in Central Italy.
