Web animation performance varies by system speed and browser. Most methods, except Java, showed decreased accuracy and timing on slower computers, impacting user experience.

Area of Science:

  • Computer Science
  • Human-Computer Interaction

Background:

  • Web animation is crucial for user engagement.
  • Various methods exist, each with potential performance differences.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the temporal accuracy and performance of different web animation techniques.
  • To identify how system speed, browser, and OS affect animation rendering.

Main Methods:

  • Assessed animation methods: Authorware, Java, Javascript/Jscript, Flash, and animated GIF.
  • Tested on fast/slow systems, MacOS/Windows, and popular web browsers.
  • Measured presentation time and accuracy under different system conditions.

Main Results:

  • Most animation methods, except Java, degraded on slower systems.

  • Poorest temporal resolution and highest variability observed on slower systems.
  • Performance was influenced by browser, OS, and system speed interactions.

    • Conclusions:

    • System specifications significantly impact web animation fidelity.
    • Developers must consider hardware and software environments for optimal animation delivery.
    • Java demonstrated superior performance consistency across varying system speeds.
