Adaptive systems: from intelligent tutoring to autonomous agents (1993)
Journal Article
Benyon, D., & Murray, D. (1993). Adaptive systems: from intelligent tutoring to autonomous agents. Knowledge-Based Systems, 6(4), 197-219. https://doi.org/10.1016/0950-7051%2893%2990012-i

Computer systems which can automatically alter aspects of their functionality or interface to suit the needs of individuals or groups of users have appeared over the years in a variety of guises. Most recently, attention has focused on intelligent in... Read More about Adaptive systems: from intelligent tutoring to autonomous agents.

Adaptive systems: A solution to usability problems (1993)
Journal Article
Benyon, D. (1993). Adaptive systems: A solution to usability problems. User Modeling and User-Adapted Interaction, 3(1), 65-87. https://doi.org/10.1007/bf01099425

Improving the usability of computer systems is perhaps the most important goal of human-computer interaction research. Current approaches to usability engineering tend to focus on simply improving the interface. An alternative is to build intelligenc...

Applying user modeling to human-computer interaction design (1993)
Journal Article
Benyon, D., & Murray, D. (1993). Applying user modeling to human-computer interaction design. Artificial Intelligence Review, 7(3-4), 199-225. https://doi.org/10.1007/bf00849555

Since the early 1980's, intelligent and adaptive systems have appeared and have been written about in a variety of guises. Although there are many differences between such systems as adaptive user interfaces, intelligent help systems and explanation...

The role of task analysis in systems design (1992)
Journal Article
Benyon, D. (1992). The role of task analysis in systems design. Interacting with Computers, 4(1), 102-123. https://doi.org/10.1016/0953-5438%2892%2990015-8

Task analysis and systems analysis are both collections of techniques aimed at the development of interactive computer-based systems. Clearly there must be some relationship between them. However, since the techniques originate from different discipl... Read More about The role of task analysis in systems design.
