Predicting user performance and errors : automated usability evaluation through computational introspection of model-based user interfaces

Predicting user performance and errors : automated usability evaluation through computational introspection of model-based user interfaces / Marc Halbrügge.

This book proposes a combination of cognitive modeling with model-based user interface development to tackle the problem of maintaining the usability of applications that target several device types at once (e.g., desktop PC, smart phone, smart TV). Model-based applications provide interesting meta-...
