Increasing technological sophistication in many countries and the
resulting larger world trade has indicated a need to pay greater
attention to the international aspects of user interfaces. Many
American companies are approaching a situation where half of their
sales are outside the United States, and companies in smaller
countries often have a much larger proportion of their sales
outside their own country. This means that software sales will
increasingly depend on their international usability and not just
their domestic usability. Seen from a user's perspective more than
half of the world's software users will be using interfaces which
were originally designed in a foreign country. Usability for this
large market of users will depend upon increased awareness of the
issues involved in designing user interfaces for international use.
As the European community aims to establish the so-called Single
Market by the end of 1992, international software will become even
more important in that part of the world. And as if it wasn't hard
enough to design user interfaces for use in Europe, there are a
further set of problems connected with user interfaces for Asia.
Both of these issues are examined in depth.
This is the first publication of its kind to appear on the topic of
international user interfaces, and presents both general guidelines
and a number of detailed case studies on the many aspects entailed.
The book will be of considerable interest to project managers,
lecturers, students, developers of basic software and user
interface designers.
