Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) is concerned with developing computer-based systems which help people undertake their work or other activities and which demonstrate a high degree of usability. Both the process of development and the various products... Read More about Domains Models for User Interface Design.

Critical Issues in User Interface Systems Engineering (1996)
Book
Benyon, D., & Palanque, P. (Eds.). (1996). Critical Issues in User Interface Systems Engineering. London, UK: Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4471-1001-9

This book developed from an IFIP workshop which brought together methods and architecture researchers in Human Computer Interaction and Software Engineering. To an extent this introduction is a little unfair to the authors, as we have distilled the r... Read More about Critical Issues in User Interface Systems Engineering.

GABA-, Glycine-, and Glutamate-Gated Channels and Their Possible Involvement in Neurological and Psychiatric Illness (1996)
Book Chapter

Expectations and experiences of CSCW in an engineering environment. (1996)
Journal Article
Turner, S., & Turner, P. (1996). Expectations and experiences of CSCW in an engineering environment. Computer Supported Cooperative Work, 1, 237-254

Existing organisational context and user expectations have a huge effect on the
success of introducing CSCW technology, and should have a correspondingly strong
influence on the choice and design of these tools. This paper first discusses
organisa... Read More about Expectations and experiences of CSCW in an engineering environment..

Accurate rapid simulation of urban traffic using discrete modelling. (1996)
Report
Russell, G., Shaw, P., & Ferguson, N. (1996). Accurate rapid simulation of urban traffic using discrete modelling

Increasing model complexity has traditionally been viewed as a key way of improving microscopic model accuracy. However, with complexity comes an increase in execution time. In some applications, such as UTC systems, low execution times and a high de... Read More about Accurate rapid simulation of urban traffic using discrete modelling..
