In this paper we describe a promising technique for studying human-machine interaction (HMI) called Constructive Interaction. We describe two pilot studies from a set which explores its application to HMI. Constructive Interaction was developed by Na...

Problems in evaluation of human-computer interfaces: a case study. (1985)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Bannon, L., & O'Malley, C. (1985). Problems in evaluation of human-computer interfaces: a case study. In Interact '84, Proceedings of the IFIP Conference (709-713)

One of the most difficult aspects of interface design is evaluating new or changed features of an interface. In this paper we discuss methods of evaluation, their strengths and weaknesses, in the context of a program we developed to assist users in g...

Planning nets: a framework for analyzing user-computer interactions. (1985)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Riley, M., & O'Malley, C. (1985). Planning nets: a framework for analyzing user-computer interactions. In Interact '84, Proceedings of the IFIP Conference (513-518)

During the course of interacting with a computer, a user has goals that correspond to tasks to be performed and must plan how to achieve those goals with the available commands. We present a framework for analyzing user goals, the mapping between tho... Read More about Planning nets: a framework for analyzing user-computer interactions..
