Information display systems. Summary of project status. Report GWU-IIST-82-04

In this overview paper work is presented toward developing methodologies and tools which can aid in the design and evaluation of user-computer interfaces, to impose structure on the typically very complex task of designing a user-computer interface, so the design can be divided into manageable pieces, each of which can be dealt with in a systematic, rigorous and at least partially quantitative way. This will help make user interface design more of a science and less of an art, and lead to improved design
