Usability
Usability is one of the key concepts in HCI. It is concerned with making systems easy to learn and
use. A usable system is:
? easy to learn
? easy to remember how to use
? effective to use
? efficient to use
? safe to use
? enjoyable to use
To produce computer systems with good usability, we need to understand the factors that determine
how people operate and make use of computer technology effectively, and to translate that
understanding into the development of tools and techniques to help designers ensure that computer
systems are suitable for the activities for which people will use them, in order to achieve efficient,
effective, and safe interaction both in terms of individual human-computer interaction and group
interactions.
Universal usability – ability to recognize the needs of a diverse user group. Design for plasticity
(transformation of content). Can be used on any type of display.
Sticky notes – is an accessory reminding user of important activities, dates, places, and so on, all
over your desk? Some people even line the edges of their computer monitor with these reminders.
