Human factors engineering design guidelines for the software user interface.

摘要

This report provides system designers with basic human factors information and guidelines for designing and developing the software user interface. A brief discussion of the user interface design philosophy is presented, followed by an overview of the user interface options available (such as color and highlighting), candidate approaches, and discussion of general display concepts and user interface features. We have presented information to facilitate discussions of user interface options, to aid in making final user interface design decisions, and to further the refinement of the user interface. We provide a candidate questionnaire for evaluating your software user interface. 41 refs., 3 tabs.
