ACM SIGCHI Bulletin, 1994
Usability is empirical, and often highly context-specific, but it would be useful for designers to have general estimates of usability from interactive system specifications alone. We discuss how this problem may be approached, and we give examples. We also discuss the justification for the approach, since it is unusual to measure usability without ...

CHI '07 Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing Systems, 2007
The introduction of computers into police patrol cars comes with an increase in driver distraction issues. We will describe the usability process and techniques we adapted to study computers in law enforcement patrol cars. Our approach to assess the risk of driver distraction in the police vehicles was a combination of a National Highway Traffic Safety

Architecting for usability: a survey
Journal of Systems and Software, 2004Over the years the software engineering community has increasingly realized the important role software architecture plays in fulfilling the quality requirements of a system. The quality attributes of a software system are, to a large extent determined by the system's software architecture.

This chapter is intended to question what usability is, or should be, in the field of computer science. We focus the design of information systems meant as systems enabling large virtual communities to access information and communications; systems aimed to support the working activities of a restricted team, but also to offer services accessible and ...

How do usability professionals construe usability?
International Journal of Human-Computer Studies, 2012Usability professionals have attained a specialist role in systems-development projects. This study analyses usability professionals’ operational understanding of usability by eliciting the constructs they employ in their thinking about system use. We approach usability broadly and without a priori distinguishing it from user experience.

International Journal of Human-Computer Interaction, 2010
The term usability is ubiquitous in human–computer interaction, so much so that it is commonly used without definition. Rather than one established meaning of usability, there are, however, multiple images of usability. Although each image provides a partial view, the partiality remains implicit unless confronted with alternative images.

Proceedings of the 18th IEEE Symposium on Reliable Distributed Systems, 2003
The article has two basic premises: why good user interface design matters more for e-commerce than for most online endeavors; and why-despite lots of corporate head-nodding and murmurs of assent-it's still very hard to achieve. The author is working on an e-commerce "wallet" project and struggling with two UI issues.

"When you can measure what you are speaking about and express it in numbers, you know something about it. But when you cannot measure it, when you cannot express it in numbers, your knowledge is of an unsatisfactory kind: It may be the beginning of knowledge, but you have scarcely, in your thoughts, advanced to the stage of Science."
