Design Decisions for a User Interface
1991Abstract An approach to user interface design is described in which the prime focus is to stimulate consistency between the mental models developed and the conceptual model of the system. The examination of mental models users formed of relatively simple information retrieval systems, provided the basis for the design of the conceptual model for the ...

The User Interface Design Environment
ACM SIGCHI Bulletin, 1988The user-computer interface is often the major impediment to successful use of interactive computer graphics systems. Design of the interface is often thought of as art rather than science, and suffers from lack of formalisms, models, tools, and methodical design approaches.

Designing speech user interfaces
CHI '99 extended abstracts on Human factors in computing systems - CHI '99, 1998This tutorial focuses on techniques for designing speech interfaces. Topics covered include an introduction to speech input and output, a discussion of speech user interface design issues, and an exploration of ways to involve users in the design process.

User interface design for the web
CHI '99 extended abstracts on Human factors in computing systems - CHI '99, 1999In this half day tutorial, we describe a variety of user interface design principles which are characteristic of Web design. These principles have been implemented by, experimented with, and validated through the experiences of the Yahoo! design team.

Iterative user-interface design
Computer, 1993A method for developing user interfaces by refining them iteratively over several versions is presented. Each iteration is subjected to user testing or other usability-evaluation methods designed to uncover usability problems. This method not only eliminates problems of this nature, but also allows designers to take advantage of any insights into user ...

Architectural design for user interfaces
1991This article discusses software architecture modelling for the design and development of interactive systems. Software architecture models should support properties and constraints prescribed by the software and cognitive psychology communities. From these observations, we derive a multi-agent framework applicable to the software design of interactive ...

The design of auditory user interfaces for blind users
Proceedings of the second Nordic conference on Human-computer interaction, 2002Previous screen readers provide blind WWW-users only with the textual contents of the web pages, but exclude the access to important information coded in the layout of web pages. The approach we introduce here shall overcome the layout barrier of webpages with the help of three-dimensionally auditory objects ("hearcons") which are positioned in an ...

Abstractions for user interface design
Computer, 1985There is a consensus among designers on the need for a rigorous separation of the functionality of a computer system from its user interface. The principle remains sterile unless some way is provided to put it into practice. It is argued that designers of the interface between users and computer systems need a toolkit of abstractions that embody human ...

Automating user interface design
SMC'98 Conference Proceedings. 1998 IEEE International Conference on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics (Cat. No.98CH36218), 2002In assistive systems that include humans, the human-computer interface provides the substrate for all collaboration. Good user interface design is difficult for even non-assistive applications; the introduction of automated reasoning and agent capabilities only aggravates the problems of human interaction with automation.

Design of a 3D User Interface to a Database
1994One of the strangest paradoxes of the silicon era is the dichotomy between ’enjoyable’ recreational computer activities and ’mundane’ work-based computer operations. How can an activity as pointless as a computer game have so much appeal? The answer to this lies in the user interface, and not the functionality, of the program.
