ALGORITHMS TO TRANSFORM THE FORMAL SPECIFICATION OF A USER-COMPUTER INTERFACE
1987Publisher Summary This chapter describes a system that allows a user interface designer to formally specify key elements of the conceptual and semantic designs of a user-computer interface. The specification uses the Interface Definition Language (IDL) to describe the interface in terms of types of objects, properties of objects, class relationships ...

User-Computer Interface Design of a Complex Tactical Display Terminal
Proceedings of the Human Factors Society Annual Meeting, 1982A complex tactical display terminal has been designed with operator input/output utility identified as an important criterion for design emphasis. Careful attention to the locations and interactions between the components of a user-computer interface has resulted in a display terminal capable of supporting the communication, analysis, and decision ...

Operator Aids and Expert Systems in User Computer Interfaces
Proceedings of the Human Factors Society Annual Meeting, 1986Recent events have demonstrated the potential for catastrophic accidents at process control facilities, resulting in severe economic damages or loss of human life. Human operators play a central role in the outcome of accidents in process control plants, because of their responsibility to make decisions regarding the appropriate corrective actions ...

Performance Effect of Matching Computer Interface Characteristics and User Skill Level
Int. J. Man Mach. Stud., 1993An experiment was conducted to see if matching user interface characteristics to user computer knowledge could improve user performance. User performance was measured by simulation game results, the extent of errors and user response time.

User Computer Interface Issues in Nuclear Process Control: Research and Applications [PDF]
Proceedings of the Human Factors Society Annual Meeting, 1986 The use of computer systems are becoming increasingly prominent as process control and information management tools in nuclear facilities. Eventually, it is believed that almost all plant processes will be controlled and monitored via some type of computer interface. The human factors data base of design guidelines, criteria and methods for evaluating

Proceedings of the 1985 ACM thirteenth annual conference on Computer Science - CSC '85, 1985
A major challenge for software engineers in the coming years is to develop systems which users can learn quickly and operate effectively. The user-computer interface is a major factor in determining whether a software system can be readily mastered by the general user population.

The use of Multi-Level Adaptable user Interfaces in Improving User-Computer Interaction [PDF]
, 1985 Users of interactive computer systems will typically display a wide range of computing experience, a fact which is rarely taken into account when user interfaces are constructed. The difficulties encountered by users using a rigid user interface are highlighted, and the role of adaptable user interfaces in the process of improving user-computer ...

Assessment of Major Changes in User Computer Interfaces in 1990 to 2000
Proceedings of the Human Factors Society Annual Meeting, 1986A study was performed at the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory to identify, categorize, and assess future, major changes in reactor control rooms. A panel of control room experts, working through a modified Delphi conference, identified 184 specific concepts for change in control rooms within the next decade.

Human Factors Guidelines and Methodology in the Design of a User Computer Interface: A Case Study
Proceedings of the Human Factors Society Annual Meeting, 1986In this case study, human factors personnel were requested to participate in a project team of programmers and operations specialists to design a cathode ray tube (CRT) display system for a complex process control application. This presentation describes the process and benefits obtained by incorporating human factors guidelines and methods in system ...
