dc.description.abstract | The next generation of Graphic User Interfaces (GUIs) will offer rapid
access to perceptually-rich, information abundant, and cognitively
consistent interfaces. These new GUIs will be subjected to usability
tests and expert reviews, plus new analysis methods and novel metrics to
help guide designers. We have developed and tested first generation
concordance tools to help developers to review terminology,
capitalization, and abbreviation. We have also developed a dialog box
summary table to help deve lopers spot patterns and identify possible
inconsistencies in layout, color, fonts, font size, font style, and
ordering of widgets. In this study we also explored the use of metrics
such as widget counts, balance, alignment, density, and aspect ratios to
provide further clues about where redesigns might be appropriate.
Preliminary experience with several commercial projects is encouraging.
