Solidly founded on 25 years of research and teaching, the author integrates the salient features of the subdisciplines of computer science into a comprehensive conceptual framework for the design of human-computer interfaces. He combines definitions, models, taxonomies, structures, and techniques with extensive references and citations to provide professors and students of all levels with a text and practical reference.

A companion to the author's User Interface Evaluation, this book details a systematic and comprehensive methodology to measure and evaluate new or existing human-computer interfaces. The text will serve both as a reference source, and as a supplement to its sister volume.
