European Usability Support Centres: Support for a More Usable
Information Society
Important Issues in Todays Telematic Research
Author:
Nigel Bevan
Abstract:
Success in the information society requires products and services
which are closely matched to user needs. The 12 European Usability
Support Centres (EUSCs) set up by the INUSE and RESPECT projects
can assist organisations in adopting the most cost effective
approaches to user centred design. The paper illustrates user
centred design activities.
There are four user centred design activities that take place
at all stages during a project:
understand and specify the context of use,
specify the user and organisational requirements,
produce design solutions,
evaluate designs against requirements.
