Abstract

Firstly, I would like to thank my supervisor Iana Nurdinova for her guidance throughout this project. I am grateful for the feedback I got on the way and for the great collabora- tion I had with her. I would also like to thank my second supervisor, Luca Ambrogioni, and his insights and advice on this work. I am thankful for the nice time I had during my internship at Avanade. It was a great opportunity to learn from the experience of others and be part of a friendly and enthusiastic team. I am especially thankful to those, who participated in my usability study. I am grateful for the support I got from my family and friends. In particular, I would like to thank my parents who always provided me with nancial and emotional support and for my sister El ene, who was a great company during many work-at-home Skype sessions. Lastly, special thanks go to my university \study-buddies", Masha Tsfasman, Hugo Chateau Laurent and Anna Pillar. It was a pleasure to work side by side with them, and an even greater pleasure to enjoy their company at the end of working days.
