چکیده
The legibility of standard Leroy alphanumeric symbols was compared with a new font, the Lincoln/MITRE (L/M) font. Legibility was tested by having human subjects attempt to identify the symbols when seen one at a time for a brief exposure period. The results showed the L/M font to be more legible than the standard Leroy. It is recommended that the two fonts be compared in a similar test on a TV monitor; this study is presently being conducted.

The relative legibilities of common words typewritten in all-uppercase and all-lowercase letters were studied in three experiments. Human subjects identified the words shown one at a time for a short period. All-uppercase printing was found to be significantly more legible than all-lowercase in all three experiments. The "word-form" of all-lowercase words was not found to to influence word iden...

A conceptual approach for evaluating and selecting among alternative Electronic Data Processing (EDP) systems proposed to meet a set of EDP user needs has been developed by applying cost-effectiveness methods and techniques to the source selection problem. The report provides a framework that allows the EDP system evaluator to combine the selected relevant system performance measures and the re...
