pg 204: A vision of a user interface for a design system
pg 205: Progressive truthfulness is the method of starting with an earlier conceived model and then to refine the model into the new design.
pg 206: The model library contains all the objects and their properties. Instances of the objects are named by knowledge of their exemplars.
pg 207: There is the hazard of restricting creativity through expansion of the model library too much and restricting the user to only exemplars within their knowledge base
pg 208: the noun and verb rhythm in the english language can be used as a model for computer human interaction
pg 209: Specifying verbs, commands, can be done through traditional computer input methods but is most easily facilitated by voice command.
pg 210: Specifying nouns, object representations, can be done through traditional methods of naming them, or a selection though pointing to a representation of the object.
pg 211: Other methods for specifying objects are by sketching them or a combination of pointing to them and sketching them
pg 212: Text specification will be through keyboard input because it is fastest. Adverbs, descriptions of the commands given, will be quantitative.
pg 213: The eyeball is a mouse-like input device that allows the navigation of the architectural design.
pg 214: Description of the eyeball device.
pg 215: description of the toothpick device for exterior viewpoints of the architectural design.
pg 220: Visual displays for the system will be multiple and concurrent.
pg 221: The 2-d context view will be one of the concurrent views.
pg 222: The 3-d view will be the next concurrent view, followed by the exterior views.
pg 223: The workbook view will hold the designers notes and ideas and will be the next concurrent view
pg 224: The specification view will hold all textual descriptions of the structure that is designed.
pg 225: Although this system is an architectural design system, adding an audio interface/display is important for the selling of the design.
pg 226: The Dream system now can conceivably be built.
