Understanding Human-Computer Interaction: Models, Frameworks, and Ergonomics, Slides of Human Resource Management

Norman's model of user experience, abowd & beale's interaction framework, and ergonomics in human-computer interaction. Norman's model discusses the gulfs of execution and evaluation, human error, and fixing mistakes. Abowd & beale's framework presents their four-part interaction model and its importance in understanding interaction. Ergonomics is introduced as the study of physical interaction aspects, with examples of industrial interfaces and indirect manipulation.

Using Norman’s model

Some systems are harder to use than others

Gulf of Execution

user’s formulation of actions

≠ actions allowed by the system

Gulf of Evaluation

user’s expectation of changed system state

≠ actual presentation of this state

Human error - slips and mistakes

slip

understand system and goal

correct formulation of action

incorrect action

mistake

may not even have right goal!

Fixing things?

slip – better interface design mistake – better understanding of system

Using Abowd & Beale’s model

user intentions → translated into actions at the interface → translated into alterations of system state → reflected in the output display → interpreted by the user

general framework for understanding interaction

  • not restricted to electronic computer systems
  • identifies all major components involved in interaction
  • allows comparative assessment of systems
  • an abstraction

ergonomics

physical aspects of interfaces

industrial interfaces

Ergonomics - examples

  • arrangement of controls and displays

e.g. controls grouped according to function or frequency of use, or sequentially

  • surrounding environment

e.g. seating arrangements adaptable to cope with all sizes of user

  • health issues

e.g. physical position, environmental conditions (temperature, humidity), lighting, noise,

  • use of colour

e.g. use of red for warning, green for okay, awareness of colour-blindness etc.

Industrial interfaces

Office interface vs. industrial interface?

Context matters!

office industrial

type of data textual numeric

rate of change slow fast

environment clean dirty

… the oil soaked mouse!

Indirect manipulation

  • office– direct manipulation
    • user interacts with artificial world
  • industrial – indirect manipulation
    • user interacts with real world through interface
  • issues ..
    • feedback
    • delays

system

interface plant

immediate feedback instruments
