Well done. You've clicked the tower. This would actually achieve something if you had logged in first. Use the key for that. The name takes you home. This is where all the applicables sit. And you can't apply any changes to my site unless you are logged in.

Our policy is best summarized as "we don't care about _you_, we care about _them_", no emails, so no forgetting your password. You have no rights. It's like you don't even exist. If you publish material, I reserve the right to remove it, or use it myself.

Don't impersonate. Don't name someone involuntarily. You can lose everything if you cross the line, and no, I won't cancel your automatic payments first, so you'll have to do it the hard way. See how serious this sounds? That's how serious you're meant to take these.

Explanations in Everyday Software Systems: Towards a Taxonomy for Explainability Needs

Click here to flash read.

arXiv:2404.16644v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: Modern software systems are becoming increasingly complex and opaque. The integration of explanations within software has shown the potential to address this opacity and can make the system more understandable to end-users. As a result, explainability has gained much traction as a non-functional requirement of complex systems. Understanding what type of system requires what types of explanations is necessary to facilitate the inclusion of explainability in early software design processes. In order to specify explainability requirements, an explainability taxonomy that applies to a variety of different software types is needed. In this paper, we present the results of an online survey with 84 participants. We asked the participants to state their questions and confusions concerning their three most recently used software systems and elicited both explicit and implicit explainability needs from their statements. These needs were coded by three researchers. In total, we identified and classified 315 explainability needs from the survey answers. Drawing from a large pool of explainability needs and our coding procedure, we present two major contributions of this work: 1) a taxonomy for explainability needs in everyday software systems and 2) an overview of how the need for explanations differs between different types of software systems.
