![Page 1: User Interfaces Interface IS the system UI an important determinant of success of MSS –Execution time –System versatility –Learning time for users, end.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081602/551aa938550346856e8b4a0a/html5/thumbnails/1.jpg)
User Interfaces• Interface IS the system• UI an important determinant of success of MSS
– Execution time– System versatility– Learning time for users, end users with differing competency– Ease of recall, concentration level required of end users,
fatigue, information overload– End-user errors
• Subset of Human Computer Interaction• People, computer technology, and the ways they interact

User Interface Design
Components• Action Language• Display/presentation language• Knowledge• Dialog
Modes of communication• metaphor• mental model• navigation of model• look

Action language
• Format of input used by decision makers– way decision makers request info., invoke models,
perform sensitivity analysis, request mail, etc.
• menu format• question answer format• command language format• input/output structured format• free-form natural language
![Page 4: User Interfaces Interface IS the system UI an important determinant of success of MSS –Execution time –System versatility –Learning time for users, end.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081602/551aa938550346856e8b4a0a/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Menus• Display lists of alternatives for DM to select
• inexperienced users, users who use DSS infrequently
• not the optimal action language for experienced users - sequence of keystrokes/menu-choices
• understandability of menus– naming according to DM language– logical listing of options (alphabetical, numeric, frequency of
use, pre-selected most common choice)– grouping commands and objects – menus nested in logical sequence

Independent command and object menus
Combined command and object

Command Language format
• power users
• complete control
(nightmare for inexperienced users)
![Page 10: User Interfaces Interface IS the system UI an important determinant of success of MSS –Execution time –System versatility –Learning time for users, end.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081602/551aa938550346856e8b4a0a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
I/O Structured format
• not a primary action language for DSS• repeated, structured, manual process
![Page 11: User Interfaces Interface IS the system UI an important determinant of success of MSS –Execution time –System versatility –Learning time for users, end.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081602/551aa938550346856e8b4a0a/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Display or presentation Language
• wide categories of info.
• uncluttered desktop• use of icons
![Page 12: User Interfaces Interface IS the system UI an important determinant of success of MSS –Execution time –System versatility –Learning time for users, end.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081602/551aa938550346856e8b4a0a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Example: Court DSS
• To enable judge to see entire perspective of a case
– infractions that a defendant may have been involved in– prior criminal history– specific complaint in question– defendant’s socio-economic, health data
• drugs used, treatment, with whom the defendant lives, where, how long
– court appearance history, non-attendance, why– judge’s comments– etc.

Display/Presentation: representations
• Metri-glyphs– smiling face: sales target met
– larger smiley: larger sales
– smile represents profit level, eyes represent dividend level
– closed eye: no dividend, size of eye: size of dividend !!!!
• Map with colors depicting different sales levels• graphs, actual numbers• animation, video
• simulation of bank with number of clerks, types of services handled by each clerk, number of queues, - impact of factors on queue length

Graphs and bias
• 5000 vs 3000 (std. deviation: 2000?)• Scaling of graphs
– Sales (0-200), Sales(0-1000)

Mode of communication• Mental models
– desktop for organizing office work
– operating room tasks?
– Understanding how users think about their work
• Metaphors– substitution of symbols for information or procedures– should convey intended meaning accurately, intuitively
![Page 23: User Interfaces Interface IS the system UI an important determinant of success of MSS –Execution time –System versatility –Learning time for users, end.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081602/551aa938550346856e8b4a0a/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Mode of communication
• Navigation– movement among the data and functions– quick access, easy understanding
• Look and feel– corporate culture, individual preferences– cultural factors
• significance of colors, size of images in video-conferencing, linear vs. alternate menu formats, etc.

Some user-interface design issues
![Page 26: User Interfaces Interface IS the system UI an important determinant of success of MSS –Execution time –System versatility –Learning time for users, end.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081602/551aa938550346856e8b4a0a/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Prototyping
• “Low-fidelity” prototyping– designers and users design screens together using paper
template items
• high fidelity prototyping
• User interface tools
