But what does it mean to be committed to usability? Inside, a twenty-year expert answers this question in full, presenting the techniques of Usability Engineering as a series of product lifecycle tasks that result directly in easier-to-learn, easier-to-use software.<br>You'll learn to perform a complete requirements analysis and then incorporate the resulting goals and constraints in a highly structured, iterative design and development process. This process doesn't end with installation but instead begins anew with the collection of user feedback that will guide further development. Also covered are organizational issues related to the implementation of Usability Engineering, including cost justification, project planning, and organizational structures.<br><br>* Unites all current UE techniques in a single, authoritative resource, presenting a coherent lifecycle process in which each clearly defined task leads directly the next.<br>* Teaches concrete, immediately usable skills to practitioners in all kinds of product development organizations-from internal departments to commercial developers to consultants.<br>* Contains examples of actual software development projects and the ways in which they have benefited from Usability Engineering.<br>* Deals in specifics, not generalities-provides detailed templates and instructions for every phase of the Usability Engineering lifecycle.<br>* Pays special attention to Web site development and explains how Usability Engineering principles can be applied to the development of any interactive product. 977809 15 4 1999 The Usability Engineering Lifecycle: A Practitioner's Handbook for User Interface Design (Interactive Technologies) total:10|5:4|4:4|3:2| 10 42 25 1 3 0 false false Sat Nov 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Tue Dec 02 20:06:00 -0800 2008 Tue Dec 02 20:15:38 -0800 2008 more...]]> 0 0 false false Wed Sep 02 00:46:15 -0700 2009 Wed Sep 02 00:46:15 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Sun Aug 23 22:16:03 -0700 2009 Sun Aug 23 22:16:03 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Wed Jul 15 13:36:25 -0700 2009 Wed Jul 15 13:36:25 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Wed Apr 08 10:48:49 -0700 2009 Wed Apr 08 10:48:49 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Tue Mar 24 07:26:03 -0700 2009 Tue Mar 24 07:26:03 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sat Mar 07 08:33:32 -0800 2009 Sat Mar 07 08:34:29 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Sat Feb 28 11:52:48 -0800 2009 Sat Feb 28 11:52:57 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Sat Feb 21 14:28:26 -0800 2009 Sat Feb 21 14:28:26 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Thu Feb 19 09:37:15 -0800 2009 Thu Feb 19 09:39:04 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Sun Dec 21 04:09:02 -0800 2008 Sun Dec 21 04:09:11 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Tue Dec 16 09:30:39 -0800 2008 Tue Dec 16 09:30:39 -0800 2008 3 0 false false Tue Nov 25 14:33:47 -0800 2008 Tue Nov 25 14:33:47 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Wed Nov 12 14:46:03 -0800 2008 Tue Feb 24 07:19:17 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Thu Sep 25 13:42:01 -0700 2008 Thu Sep 25 13:42:01 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Fri Sep 05 10:05:16 -0700 2008 Fri Sep 05 10:05:27 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Sun Jul 06 18:58:13 -0700 2008 Sun Jul 06 18:58:13 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Fri May 16 22:14:17 -0700 2008 Fri May 16 22:14:41 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Fri Feb 01 07:56:31 -0800 2008 Fri Feb 01 07:56:37 -0800 2008 4 0 false false Thu Jan 31 12:21:45 -0800 2008 Thu Jan 31 12:21:45 -0800 2008 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=992314
