Böcker i Cambridge Series on Human-Computer Interaction-serien

This 1993 book describes several empirical studies from which the author has developed a computer version of a handyman's workbench that would help users with their online activities. For the researcher and graduate student, the book offers a wealth of analysis and interpretation of data, as well as a survey of research techniques.

This 1991 book, which is based on a course taught by the author and developed from 10 years' research, introduces basic traditional semiotic concepts and adapts them so that they become useful for analysing and designing computer systems and their interfaces.

Information Seeking in Electronic Environments describes how the strategies we use to locate information have begun to change as a result of computers and telecommunications technology. Accessible to students and to the perspicacious citizen who wishes to understand how technology has begun to influence life in the information society.

First published in 1990, this book discusses the application of formal methods to the human-computer interface. Topics such as the specification of a system, the construction of a system from its specification and the abstraction of a specification from an existing system, are clearly of great theoretical and practical interest.

This 1992 book discusses a functional architecture for communication aids and the idea of automatically supplying the intrinsic redundancy contained in natural communication. The distinctions between adaptive and non-adaptive models of communication are shown and details are given of working predictive text generation systems, specifically the Reactive Keyboard.

This 1989 book is a distinctive work in the field of human-computer interaction (HCI). Cognitive ergonomics and HCI encompass a wide range of research and development activities in both academic and industrial environments, and this book satisfies a clear need for the dissemination of the knowledge generated by work in progress or completed.

Designing Interaction, first published in 1991, presents a broadbased and fundamental re-examination of human-computer interaction as a practical and scientific endeavor. The chapters in this well-integrated, tightly focused book are by psychologists and computer scientists in industry and academia, who examine the relationship between contemporary psychology and human-computer interaction.
