TL;DR: A method for developing user interfaces by refining them iteratively over several versions, which not only eliminates problems of this nature, but also allows designers to take advantage of any insights into user needs that emerge from the tests.

Abstract: A method for developing user interfaces by refining them iteratively over several versions is presented. Each iteration is subjected to user testing or other usability-evaluation methods designed to uncover usability problems. This method not only eliminates problems of this nature, but also allows designers to take advantage of any insights into user needs that emerge from the tests. The author describes four case studies where the median improvement in overall usability from the first to the last iteration was 165%, and the median improvement per iteration was 38%. >

A mathematical model of the finding of usability problems
Jakob Nielsen,Thomas K. Landauer +1 more
- 01 May 1993
TL;DR: It is found that the detection of usability problems as a function of number of users tested or heuristic evaluators employed is well modeled as a Poisson process, which can be used to plan the amount of evaluation required to achieve desired levels of thoroughness or benefits.

Randi Vita,James A. Overton,Jason A. Greenbaum,Julia Ponomarenko,Jason D. Clark,Jason R. Cantrell,Daniel K. Wheeler,Joseph L. Gabbard,Deborah Hix,Alessandro Sette,Bjoern Peters +10 more
TL;DR: A complete redesign of the query and reporting interface has been performed in the IEDB 3.0 release to improve how end users can access immune epitopes information in an intuitive and biologically accurate manner.
Peer and self assessment in massive online classes
Chinmay Kulkarni,Koh Pang Wei,Huy Viet Le,Daniel Chia,Kathryn Papadopoulos,Justin Cheng,Daphne Koller,Scott R. Klemmer +7 more
TL;DR: This article reports the experiences with two iterations of the first large online class to use peer and self-assessment, and finds that rubrics that use a parallel sentence structure, unambiguous wording, and well-specified dimensions have lower variance.

Designing for usability: key principles and what designers think
John D. Gould,Clayton Lewis +1 more
TL;DR: Data is presented which shows that the design principles of system design are not always intuitive to designers and the arguments which designers often offer for not using these principles are identified.

User-derived impact analysis as a tool for usability engineering
Michael Good,T. M. Spine,John Whiteside,P. George +3 more
- 01 Apr 1986
TL;DR: A unified approach to improved usability can be identified and contributed to by showing, via a product development case study, how user-derived estimates of the impact of design activities on engineering goals may be made.

Softening Up Hard Science: Reply to Newell and Card
TL;DR: Combined results from the two studies suggest that judgmental performance is markedly enhanced or degraded by the degree to which the display format provides the user with an organizing structure that facilitates a matching between the relative importance of information and the psychological salience of the display's graphic features.
