Description
System design has traditionally been the domain of engineers, with a focus on formal specification. However, over the past decade, human-computer interaction (HCI) has emerged as an alternative approach, one that views humans as essential elements in the system.
The rise of HCI is driven by the need to address 'human error' and develop systems that are more user-friendly. As computers have become increasingly ubiquitous in our daily lives, it's clear that designing systems with users in mind is crucial. Despite this, much of the research has focused on creating systems that can be used without special training.
This book explores the challenges and opportunities presented by human-computer interaction, highlighting the need for a more user-centred approach to system design.
