Text: Project Manager: So we come to the third meetings. I have <unk>gap<unk> good. Industrial Designer: <unk>vocalsound<unk> Project Manager: Um so in the last meeting we have discussed the functional design and now we will talk about the conceptual design. So we will talk about some specific details. Industrial Designer: Okay so I think I will do my presentation on the components concept so can you please uh open uh <unk>disfmarker<unk> I'm participant two. Project Manager: This <unk>disfmarker<unk> Industrial Designer: Components design. Project Manager: <unk>gap<unk> Industrial Designer: Okay so uh the first thing uh I have done is to to made a review together with the uh manufactural uh department and have which components was uh available to build a remote control. So for energy sources we have we have to choose between the solar energy, hand dynamo and uh kinetic um well uh kinetic uh technique <unk>vocalsound<unk> to to store the energy.

So uh it's a point to discuss. Then uh the case material we have uh uh also several choices, like wood, rubber, titanium or latex. <unk>vocalsound<unk> But uh well it's not a a re uh well a real issue for the <unk>vocalsound<unk> Question: Summarize the discussion about the components concept of industrial design. Answer:
The team talked about using a battery on the remote control and discussed different types of energy, they would find out if the kinetic metal was sufficient to provide enough energy. As to the shape of the remote control, there should be a curve which would fit into users' hands when they grab the remote control. They discussed material used to design the case of remote control, such as plastic or titanium, but they were still discussing which one should be used.

Answer:
The team discussed a marketing survey about remote controls. They agreed to design remote controls with more fancy outlook and less buttons. The remote control should be easier to find and less complicated so users take less time to learn the functionality of it and the team discussed how to implement this function. They also talked about voice recognition and the scroller button. Then they agreed to design a child lock. Users could open child lock by pressing the button with some code. At last they discussed the set of vocabularies for the speech recogniser. They decided to put numbers and words in the vocabulary. But they realized that it would be a challenge to make the speech recogniser distinguish between different voices and deal with noises and they would keep on discussing it.

The team discussed the conceptual design and some specific details in this meeting. Industrial Designer talked about the components concept of industrial design, such as the different choice of energy and the different material of the remote control. The team would find out which one to use in the future. User Interface designer gave the presentation about system design, mainly about programme design for different users and to help them use the device. Then the team decided to discuss the marketing part at first, then discuss what to design. Marketing talked about specific details found in the market survey. The team agreed to use fancier design, less buttons and focus on voice recognition. They would find out whether using LCD on remote controls was too expensive or not. Team members agreed to use a voice commander and fixed charger, which would prevent the remote control getting lost. Then the team talked about the set of vocabularies for the speech recogniser.

Answer:
Industrial Designer believed that the working design did not involve specialised technologies and therefore would not cost much or be difficult. User Interface questioned this statement by arguing that the technical functions depended on the user requirements. The team discussed this point and then agreed that the remote control should be for novice users. Later on, Project Manager suggested going through market research results delivered by Marketing and the new requirements shown by themself. These clarified the directions of design and then the team agreed to include simple functions, certain large buttons, etc.

The team then started brainstorming in this direction, coming up with ideas such as a can opener, bouncing pads, big buttons, flashy design, changeable fronts, etc. Later on, Project Manager put forward the idea of having a gadget like a vase to be put on the table, for containing the remote control. This idea then developed into one containing a base that could charge and track the remote control.

So uh I suggest we take about seven minutes per presentation, and then we can have a little discussion about the new project requirements uh which have been sent to me. And then the decision on the control functions uh which we wanna include and those which we don't wanna include. So we've got forty minutes for all of it. So I suggest um let's start with the first presentation Question: Summarize the amendments to project requirements and the following discussion. Answer:
Project Manager announced that the remote control ought to be only suitable for TV, and that teletext as an outmoded function should be skipped, while internet access becomes an optional function. Meanwhile, target customers are specified as 40 plus. However, Project Manager's requirements of no teletext and design simplification were effectively challenged and rebutted by Marketing. As a result, the focus on the project was changed from design to functionality.

So we've got forty minutes for all of Question: What attitude did Marketing hold towards the ''no teletext but internet'' requirement when commenting on new project requirements and why? Answer:
Marketing was strongly against the ''no teletext but internet'' requirement, because he thought there was little chance that customers over 40 would use TVs with internet access in the near future. And he added that teletext was no doubt a key feature for the remote control, especially for the elder generation, and hence should not be ruled out anyway. Consequently, the group agreed to keep teletext and further negotiate with the board.

Marketing considered fancy design to be insignificant, as he believed that unlike the younger generation, people of 40 plus were not that particular about appearance and would care more about its functionality instead. Marketing's opinion was subsequently agreed by other team members.

Firstly, after a short debate, the group reached a consensus that basic layout would be enough for the button design, on which too much emphasis would be unnecessary for the elder generation. Then, the group agreed to implement a docking station as an extra with a positioning function. Also, as opposed to touchscreen or LCD screen, an ordinary small screen and default materials were applauded. Finally, Project Manager proposed to specify the target group as people above 60, which could improve product image as Marketing said.

Though Project Manager brought up scroll button and joystick as possible options, Industrial rejected that idea by arguing that the elderly were not accustomed to using them, therefore basic layout would be sufficient. Then Marketing further pointed out that there was not so much to gain in the competition of less buttons, as very few buttons would be needed for a TV remote anyway. Project Manager accepted those ideas.

So I suggest um let's start with the first Question: Why was the docking station taken into consideration and how was its function achieved? Answer:
Marketing's research about user requirements showed that 50% of the people tended to find their remote controls lost. Therefore, the docking station as an extra would help users find its position. To achieve this the audio sign would be implemented. When users pressed a button, the phone on the remote control went ringing and indicated its position.

The whole meeting was focused on the functional design of the new remote control project. First of all, Marketing, User Interface, and Industrial Designer each gave a presentation about user requirements, technical function design, and working design respectively. Then, Project Manager announced some amendments to project requirements, which automatically rejected some of the previous assumptions and aroused further discussion about design and functionality with people above 40 as target customers.

Industrial Designer considered batteries as the energy source. Marketing thinks that changing batteries all the time could possibly be annoying, so she suggests other energy options like solar charging. But Industrial Designer refutes this problem because people change batteries simply every six months. User Interface raised the question on the operational distance of the infra-red signal and hoped that the remote control could be equipped with a strong signal stream. But Project Manager rendered it unnecessary because TV is always put in a short distance. Later the team discussed the necessity of through-wall signal and Bluetooth, and decided that this idea remained an idea for some budget reasons and the lack of necessity.

In the presentation from User Interface, he first made sure of the position of the team’s remote control —— a remote control with basic functionalities and with some improvements. The must-haves would include volume control, channel keys up-down, a numerical keypad, a mute button and would exclude the lock button which was discussed in the precedent meeting. He made an introduction of two types of remotes: engineering centred ones which provide a lot of functionality and user centred which focus on the easiness of use. Later, the team discussed the locking function which Project Manager expected greatly, and also on the integration of the corporate image into the design of the remote control. At last, regarding the layout of the remote control, User Interface would like to make some improvements over two buttons concerning the ergonomic design.

The team discussed the topic of potential user-friendly features for the old and the young. Marketing mentioned the probable insertion of tracking devices which recognize personal preferences, like voice activator, because people may easily forget the position of the remote controls in the room. However, later the team decided to put aside this idea for budget reasons. Then, Marketing mentioned RSI, or repetitive strain injury, which should be taken into consideration in the process of ergonomic design. Industrial Designer mentioned that this could probably be avoided by touching a button instead of pressing a button.

Industrial Designer gave an example that the RR logo or thematic colours could be placed around the lock button.

I'd like to take this opportunity to welcome Suzy Davies to the committee, and to thank Mark Reckless and Darren Millar, who have left us, for their service and hard work as members of the committee. Can I ask whether there are any declarations of interest, please? No. Okay. We will move on then to our evidence session on our inquiry into the impact of Brexit on higher and further education. I'm very pleased to welcome Kirsty Williams, Cabinet Secretary for Education, and Eluned Morgan AM, Minister for Welsh Language and Lifelong Learning. Can I just ask you to introduce your officials for the record, please? Kirsty Williams AM: Bore da, Lynne, and thank you for the invitation to join you. Eluned and I are joined this morning by Huw Morris, who's the group director at SHELL—skills, higher education and lifelong learning—and Marie Knox, who is deputy director, overseeing European transition. Lynne Neagle AM: Okay, thank you very much, and thank you for coming. We'll go straight into questions, then, and the first questions are from Suzy Davies. Suzy Davies AM: Thank you. I'd like to ask you both, if that's okay, a little bit about preparedness. But if I could start with higher education, I understand that—I don't know, it must be about 18 months ago now—Ken Skates told another committee in this place that there had been nine sector analyses done. Presumably, one of those was HE, because of the—well, Welsh Government had a presence, and still does, in Brussels, related to higher education. Apparently, those have now been superseded by work that's been done by Cardiff University. I don't know if you've got any comments on that research, or whether it's been brought to your attention yet. Kirsty Williams AM: Well, Suzy, following the vote, I was very keen that we work very closely with colleagues in higher Question: Summarize the political background and the aim of the group. Answer:
The group was focusing on the potential influence to the Wales education system due to the Brexit. The members mentioned many institutions like the Higher Education Funding Council for Wales and showed that these institutions had taken much action to deal with the problems. Some of the institutions funded higher education in Wales, and others might help those universities find a better way to transit. What the group aimed at was cooperating with the institutions and help the situation become better.

Kirsty Williams AM: Well, Suzy, following the vote Question: What did Huw Morris think of the "no deal" scenario when talking about the political background and the aim of the group? Answer:
When discussing the dilemma that the Wales universities were faced with at the moment, Kirsty Williams pointed out that many factors would affect the fiscal situation of the universities, including whether it would be a "no deal" scenario or a "deal" one. Even though most worries were towards the "no deal" scenario, Huw Morris was confident that the higher education Brexit working group had been meeting since September 2016 and recently officials had been visiting individual institutions to ensure that they were fully prepared for the potential fund problems.

Answer:
Eluned Morgan had been actively engaging with the FE sector and he found that those colleges are much localized, with only 71 EU apprenticeships and staff. The group was working hard to ensure that these 71 people would safely go through such a chaotic period. What's also important was that as for FE, the relationship between the apprenticeships and the working community mattered much, which means they might have to improve the relationship between these 71 EU people and the local community.

Answer:
Hefin David pointed out that Wales was the only country in the UK that witnessed a significant drop in applications from EU students. The group should have noticed that the available funding for those EU students had changed, and that was one of the reasons why fewer of them applied for Wales universities this year. But fortunately, according to Kirsty Williams, close cooperation with HEFCW and other institutions were always on the agenda to make sure that Wales universities were fully prepared.

Answer:
Hefin David thought that the Wales government should be to blame for the fewest EU students applying for Wales universities this year, however, Kirsty Williams considered it was too early to jump to the conclusion. Not until November would they conduct the first census to get an exact number of the students enrolled. In addition, Kirsty Williams pointed out the fact that international students outside the EU make up a bigger proportion of students not from the UK who came to Wales institutions. There was no need to be so anxious about the number of the present applications.

Answer:
Kirsty Williams thought Swansea University was quite a good example for them to learn from. During such a dilemma, Swansea University found a solution that provided an attractive curriculum and offered courses that people really wanted to take. They delivered their curriculum in a fashion way, guaranteed good teaching, and had an appealing infrastructure, which all made good use to attract potential applicants. That was exactly what other institutions needed to do at present.

Kirsty Williams AM: Well, Suzy, following Question: What did the group talk about the possible official solution to the problem with more funding, a new immigration policy and the help of the minister? Answer:
The group laid their stress on mainly three aspects in terms of dealing with the problem at an official level, which respectively were adding more funding to the universities, implementing a new immigration policy, and asking for the minister's help. With adequate funding, the institutions would be more likely to satisfy the research needs from the students. Similarly, a more robust immigration policy might make it more appealing for those who would like to set down in Wales. Last but not least, making the minister be aware of the serious problem would also be important that the problem would then be brought to national meetings and discussed by more officials.

Answer:
When discussing the funding to support Wales universities to go through the financial problems, Julie Morgan mentioned that they have funded Wales universities with 6.4 million dollars in 2017-18. Kirsty Williams added that they had actually made an additional resource of £5 million available to mitigate the freeze in tuition fees, and another £5 million had been made available to HEFCW to kick-start the work on postgraduate support. With the adequate funding, Kirsty Williams believed that there would be little need to worry about the fiscal problems of Wales universities.

Kirsty Williams AM: Well, Suzy, following the vote, I was very keen Question: What did Kirsty Williams elaborate on the immigration policy when discussing the possible official solution to the problem? Answer:
According to Kirsty Williams, he was not quite in favor of a new immigration policy at first, for when post-study work visas were first issued in the south-east of England, the outcome was not so satisfying. However, his attitude had changed. As the locals usually did not take foreign students as immigrants, the government should treat the foreign students and those who came from EU as the same, which is to say, a new immigration system should be set to ensure that EU students and all the other foreign ones would receive the same treatment when seeking a job in Wales.

Answer:
The group mentioned that Wales government had promised a multi-annual commitment that it would help the Wales universities to get through the transition period and operate well with enough funding. However, some of the members thought that they could not always rely on the government and should have a budget plan for themselves. For fear that they might only receive the governmental funding for those apprentices, the group agreed to keep the apprenticeship firmly, even if some areas like England had abandoned it.

Kirsty Williams AM: Well, Suzy, Question: Why did Eluned Morgan disagree with Suzy Davies when talking about the official commitments to help the Wales universities to get through the transition period? Answer:
While talking about the official commitments to help the Wales universities to get through the transition period, Suzy Davies compared the two kinds of multi-annual commitments that one was related to revenue and the other to capital. She did not think that either of them would work, however, according to Eluned Morgan, the official commitment related to capital would matter more under such a transition period. Even if most people would focus on the revenue, they should pay attention to the capital for that it is exactly the capital that ensured the institutions to operate well under the dilemma.

Answer:
When discussing the official commitments, Eluned Morgan had great confidence in the government that they would provide firm support for the Wales universities. But as for Llyr Gruffydd, he did not think that the institutions would be able to rely on the official funding much, and more importantly, if they would like to enter into the agreements at present, they would interrupt their current work, which would also put themselves in great risk.

Kirsty Williams AM: Well, Suzy, following the vote, I was very keen that we work very closely with colleagues in higher education and further education, to Question: Summarize the whole meeting. Answer:
The meeting was about the fiscal and social influence of Brexit, especially focusing on the Wales education system. The group was worrying that Brexit would cut down the support from the EU to the UK, thus putting the Wales Universities in great dilemma. Besides, the fact was that the less fiscal support from the EU, the less foreign students would apply for the Wales universities. The members talked about several possible solutions, for instance, adjusting the syllabus to better meet both the students' and the lecturers' needs and providing them with better career prospects. What also mattered was the immigration policy which would be alluring to the foreign students if being reconsidered carefully.

User Interface: <unk> Question: How did the group discussed about the possible environmental-friendly material? Answer:
The industrial designer suggested that when taking environmental impact into consideration, the product could switch to a more environmental-friendly material. This type of material was made up of specific alloys of metals which have a shape memory, and it also allowed recycling. Hence, the product manager lifted out the point that the company could recycle the old remote controls from customers and take down the usable parts to make new remote controls. Even though the team liked the idea, the product manager also raised his concern towards the financial budget. In the end they agreed to discuss further about how they could achieve the idea by not exceeding the budget.

User Question: How did the group hold their views towards multi-functional and single-functional product? Answer:
The user interface designer suggested two options of making the remote control functional. One way was to make it multi-functional, so as to be used for several entertainment devices. Another way was to make it single-functional, which could be used specifically for the television. The entire group preferred the product to be single-functional. It is because making an original design was more obtainable, and it would be more profitable as it would be more simplistic. They had to make it compatible with different brands of devices to sell internationally.

The marketing specialist did some research and the marking specialist stressed on the topic of appearance.

And the statistics also showed that eighty percent of users would spend more money when a remote control would look fancy. Hence customers would spend more money on a fancy-looking remote control.

It was discovered by the marketing specialist that people liked to switch channels, thus they had to make a more durable button. The marketing specialist counted the times of usage of every button on the remote control, and wanted to make a user-friendly banner to include all the buttons in. When including the buttons, they took in consideration the relevance and disadvantaged people as well.

The marketing specialist suggested a LCD screen could be installed. The industrial designer thought it would be good to link with the teletext function. Also, the marketing specialist raised points about the target age group. In their assumption, a teenager would not be willing to pay for an expensive remote control, whereas the elder age group would be more willing. The group reached a consensus on catering the product to the age group of early twenties.

They kept the alarm idea because it was not expensive to actualize.

And in order to reduce the size, the user interface designer further suggested that the remote control could charge within the socket, so it could obtain electricity which was provided from the TV`s power source.

User Interface: Question: How did the fluorescent buttons related to the humanitarian design of the product? Answer:
The group wanted the lighting up to be a faint glow, so that it would not cause a sudden explosion of light in a dim environment. At the same time, the glowing buttons would be made in the shape of numbers so that the vision-impaired people would be taken care of. Meanwhile, they wished the glow was in neon style so that they could implement the company's colour in it and make it trendy.

User Interface: Question: What was the idea of personalization and how was it not so feasible? Answer:
The marketing specialist threw out the idea of making the remote control cover changeable and personalized. The marketing specialist further suggested that they could incorporate the TV theme elements such as Bart Simpson into the cover. However, it might raise a question about copyright issues so they decided to delay the discussion.

User Interface: <unk>vocalsound<unk> Industrial Designer Question: Summarize the whole meeting. Answer:
The meeting mainly discussed the design of functions and the appearances. On function wise, the group had a little argument whether to make the product multi-functional or single functional. In the end they went with single-functional because it was more focused and affordable. They also removed some of the functions being discussed such as LCD screen, teletext and voice recognition, because they wanted to stick with a simplistic design. On design wise, the group finalized on the colour yellow as their product appearance and they chose illuminated buttons as one of their highlights. They also included some humanitarian factors into the design.

The participants discussed how meetings would be transcribed, what kind of information to include in their corpus as well as how to structure it, issues with storing data, and their model. They were particularly concerned with how IBM could assist with transcribing meetings and how they would manage large amounts of data if they include more information in their corpus, given that they were running low on storage. They decided that they could store the data on tapes for backup, and that they would wait and see how IBM transcribes their meetings. As for the modeling, PhD I reported several results and a few members of the team decided to further discuss progress in a smaller meeting later on.

They also decided to install a microphone in the device so that the remote control could make sounds when it got lost. The group discussed over cost-efficiency of a display, whose adoption still remained to be decided.

Answer:
The group showed approval regarding the concept of a wooden case, because Industrial Designer, during his presentation, evaluated different materials on the basis of manufacturing input as well as the conceptual features of the product. After eliminating rubber, plastic and titanium, the only option left was wood. Not only is it environmental-friendly, but the users could also have their customized curving on the case. But Industrial Designer suggested that the buttons should be made out of rubber.

Answer:
User Interface proposed to reconsider the necessity of adopting a display in consideration of two factors. One was that the television screen already made a big display, the other was that the cost-efficiency of a display was doubtful. In view of the cost constraint, sacrificing the display feature could be a reasonable option. Project Manager then asked Marketing to conduct research on this subject before making the final decision about the adoption of the display.

Answer:
User Interface proposed that buttons, when pressed, gave audio or tactile feedback so that users were aware that the device understood his message. For instance, speech recognition could be an option. Besides, voice control should be able to be turned off so that the remote control wouldn't accidentally send instructions to televisions.

In instance we had talked about using some sort of speech recognition, Project Question: What did the group discuss about flip screens in terms of general functionalities of the new product? Answer:
User Interface suggested adding a flip screen on the remote control in order to prevent users from accidentally pressing buttons and bring unwilling results, especially for families with children. Given that the products were to be made out of wood, Industrial Designer proposed to use a copper hinge. But User Interface disagreed by pointing out that this might increase the weight of the product.

This meeting focused on the conception of the functional design of the new remote control. Industrial Designer evaluated several components in the technical design of the product and gave his personal preferences, especially on the chip and the material to use in the construction. Then User Interface presented a general layout of the functionality, the design of which should follow two principles: simpleness and customizability. Marketing, in his turn, explained the current market trend based on the results of his questionnaires on user requirements. The group also discussed where the remote control would be manufactured by taking into account the price of the local labour force.

Current speech alignment techniques assume that foreground speech must be continuous and, barring some isolated words and backchannels, can not cope with overlapping background speech. Performing adaptations on both the foreground and background speaker produced a new variety of misalignments, a problem resulting, in part, from the fact that background speakers often match better to foreground conditions.

The group discussed efforts to train and test the Aurora group's HTK-based recognition system on ICSI's digits corpus. Members also discussed efforts to produce forced alignments from a selection of Meeting Recorder data. Performance in both tasks was adversely affected by the manner of recording conditions implemented and difficulties attributing utterances to the appropriate speakers. While debugging efforts resulted in improved forced alignments, dealing with mixed channel speech and speaker overlap remains a key objective for future work. The group is additionally focused on a continued ability to feed different features into the recognizer and then train the system accordingly.

Industrial Designer informed the team that the standard wheel is fifty times more expensive than a push button, so it might be hard to incorporate it into the design. Project Manager was insistent that the wheel is included, however. Then, the team discussed whether to include a motion activated light or continuous light.

Industrial Designer thought that the wheel would be too expensive, especially considering that the remote casing would be costly. In Industrial Designer's opinion, the backlight on the push buttons added enough novelty that the wheel would not be necessary. Industrial Design thought that having a motion activated backlight would be useful, as opposed to a continuous one. The motion sensor was not too expensive, so it wouldn't be a costly addition.

The meeting focused on the cost and design implication of including the wheel, the best way to include the light, ensuring that buttons are well-placed, and choosing a fashionable fruit as the remote's design. Project Manager reiterated that several decisions, like not having an LCD, having a wheel, and including a lighting feature, have been made in the previous meeting. Then, Industrial Designer highlighted that the wheel was expensive, though, likely still within the budget. User Interface led some discussion about placing the buttons in a way that minimizes strain for the user. Finally, Marketing informed the group that fruits and vegetables were the upcoming fashion trend. The group decided that a banana would be a good option for the design and discussed how existing priorities could be adapted to a curved design.

The team discussed that the organisation of the intermediate nodes of the belief-net and their properties is almost complete, although no conditional probabilities have been inserted yet. These nodes represent decisions that will function as parameters to action calls in the system. Their values will either be inferred from the user-system interaction, or -as a last resort- requested directly from the user.

A detailed diagram of the EVA belief-net was presented and some of the intermediate nodes and their properties were discussed in depth. Some of the key features and properties are: "Go-there", which is binary, and defined by the user, situation, ontology and discourse models; "timing" (current/next tour); "reason" (business, sight-seeing, socialising); "transport"; "length of tour"; "costs"; "entity" (open, accessible) etc.

The data collection that will provide relevant dialogues is moving along, with thirty subjects already lined up. They will be given a reading task, which will include some german proper names, and a series of tasks from the tourist domain to choose from. In order to get directions, they will then communicate with a computer system and a human operator, using a sketchy map as an aid. A different set of data are already available from the SmartKom system and similar sources.

The main focus of the meeting was firstly on the structure of the belief-net, its decision nodes and the parameters that influence them, and secondly, on the design of the data collection tasks. For the latter, there are already 30 subjects lined up and more are expected to be recruited off campus. Finally, as to the semantic and syntactic constructions, work will start with more general and brief descriptions, before moving to exhaustive analysis of at least a subset. Similarly, the construction parser that is to be built within a year is expected to be relatively basic, yet robust.
