background: anthropometric kits are extensively used in workstation and product design projects, and with the advancement of technology, they have turned into highly complex and effective instruments. however, there are still many challenging problems in usability and reliability of application of these kits in real-world settings. objectives: to identify the usability and accuracy issues with ...

You will perform a heuristic evaluation (individually) of their user interface using only the materials they turned in for their last project report (“Interactive Prototype” write-up & working demo). Using their tasks, scenarios, interface design, screen shots, and interactive prototype you will apply Nielsen’s heuristics to the user interface. You should be able to get all of this information ...

Transportation sector generates a considerable part of each nation's gross domestic product and considered among the largest consumers of oil products in the world. This paper proposes a heuristic method for the vehicle routing problem with hard time windows while incorporating the costs of fuel, driver, and vehicle. The proposed heuristic uses a novel speed optimization algorithm to reach its ...

Introduction: As university systems are dealing with a wide range of users, including students, managers, and employees, these can likely satisfy the needs activities various users maximum quality in shortest possible time. Consequently, it is very essential to observe usability features design such systems. The current study aimed evaluate Hamava system recognize resolve its problems weaknesse...

We propose a paradigm for evaluating game heuristic functions in which we define a set of metrics, each measuring an aspect of heuristic’s performance, and use them to evaluate the heuristic function by comparing the function’s output against a pre-computed benchmark containing a set of states from a game and ground-truth values of each of their moves. The advantage of our approach is that it i...

We evaluated a web-based communication tool for nurse scheduling using two common usability evaluation methods, heuristic evaluation and end-user think aloud protocol. We found that heuristic evaluation performed by human-computer interaction (HCI) experts revealed more general interface design problems, while end-users' think-aloud protocols identified more obstacles to task performance. To pr...

Evaluation of Health Information Technology can be expensive and complex. In this work, we explored the use of heuristic evaluation as a low-cost evaluation method for Personal Health Records (PHR). We evaluate three PHR using both a traditional and a modified heuristic evaluation. The results of these evaluations demonstrate that heuristic evaluation can be used successfully to find many of th...
