The Ozlab system has been used for many years by Karlstad University researchers when exploring interface concepts and paradigms for computer applications. Thanks to the incorporation of the Wizard of Oz technique researchers could simulate functionality without spending time or resources on programming.
Though, as time went by, our tool needed updating. Therefore, the Ozlab system is now being redeveloped towards a web-based system.
