Incorporating Human Factors into a Method for Designing of Adaptive User Interfaces

  • Conference paper
Tools for Working with Guidelines

Abstract

This work is focused on presenting a new method to design adaptive user interfaces taking into account human factors. Human factors are closed linked on the one hand, to the user’s behavior studied by the human cognitive models. More specifically, we have elaborated a task model based on a cogni­tive model, in order to help the designer to define the user’s needs. Then, the interface adaptation process will use this model. On the other hand, human factors are closed linked to user interface guidelines, which allow deducing some aspects of human-computer interactions automatically.
