TLDR
The paper describes an approach to the identification of user requirements for knowledge-based front ends to existing software systems, and a framework for the structuring of the user requirements obtained is presented.Abstract:
There is a growing demand both for greater 'ease of use' and 'support in use' as existing software packages are employed for more complex tasks. End users are faced with both the intricacies of the existing software, and the increasing complexity of the application-problem domains. As a result, there are important implications for the design of support systems for the professional user. The paper describes an approach to the identification of user requirements for knowledge-based front ends to existing software systems. The development of KBFEs is a software re-use technique that involves the integration of existing systems and services to provide specific users and user groups with a tailored solution. As a result, a KBFE enables a greater number and variety of users to have access to existing software and its functionality. This has implications for the requirements-elicitation methods employed. Investigations requirements that assume the use of existing software are described, and a framework for the structuring of the user requirements obtained is presented.read more

Engineering a method for wide audience requirements elicitation and integrating it to software development
Tuure Tuunanen,Matti Rossi +1 more
TL;DR: It is argued that developing IS for non-organizational users creates new problems, which IS and requirement engineering (RE) community should attend to, and a new RE method is constructed and its support environment is constructed within Metaedit+ Meta CASE tool.

Incorporating personality in user interface design: A review
TL;DR: This review presents the impact of design and aesthetics on user preferences, namely considering whether certain personality traits have a preference for specific interface design features.

Is It Time to Re-Evaluate the Connection Between Bounded Rationality and Requirements Elicitation?
TL;DR: It is found that when developing a system for consumers the authors should reconsider whether to use the bounded rationality as an only basis for understanding end-users’ needs, and should look towards marketing science and consumer behavior literature to better understand the rationalities behind consumer decision making.

Using critics to empower users
TL;DR: Critiquing supports computer users in their problem solving and learning activities and is discussed from the perspective of overcoming the problems of high-functionality computer systems, of providing a new class of systems to support learning, of extending applications-oriented construction kits to design environments, and of providing an alternative to traditional autonomous expert systems.

The man—computer interface: a note on concepts and design
TL;DR: The notion of identifying a part of a computer system, the man-computer interface, that can be seen as representing the user's model of the system is explored and a particular classification of the components of an interface is presented.
