The Organizational Context of User-Centered Software Designs

Improving the Quality of Numerical Software Through User-Centered Design

Improving the Usability of Numerical Software through User-Centered Design

The software interface C whether graphical, command-oriented, menu-driven, or in the form of subroutine calls C shapes the user's perception of what software can do. It also establishes upper bounds on software usability. Numerical software interfaces typically are based on the designer's understanding of how the software should be used. That is a poor foundation for usability, since the featur...

User-Centered Evaluation of an Adaptive User Interface in the Context of Warehouse Picking

Although nowadays adaptive user interfaces (AUIs) can be found in many applications, many downsides and jeopardies of AUIs are not yet sufficiently researched. We take a user-centered design in the development of an adaptive application and demonstrate that the userfriendliness of an adaptive application benefits from an early and iterative evaluation of the adaptation rules. Drawbacks of adapt...

Aspects of Integrating User Centered Design into Software Engineering Processes

Software Engineering (SE) and Usability Engineering (UE) both provide a wide range of elaborated process models to create software solutions. Today, many companies have realized the need for usable products and understood that a systematic and structured approach to usability is as important as the process of software development itself. However, theory and practice still have problems to effic...
