This is the second of two books by the authors about engineering
design principles for human-computer interaction (HCI-EDPs). The
books report research that takes an HCI engineering discipline
approach to acquiring initial such principles. Together, they
identify best-practice HCI design knowledge for acquiring HCI-EDPs.
This book specifically reports two case studies of the acquisition
of initial such principles in the domains of domestic energy
planning and control and business-to-consumer electronic commerce.
The book begins by summarising the earlier volume, sufficient for
readers to understand the case studies reported in full here. The
themes, concepts, and ideas developed in both books concern HCI
design knowledge, a critique thereof, and the related challenge.
The latter is expressed as the need for HCI design knowledge to
increase its fitness-for-purpose to support HCI design practice
more effectively. HCI-EDPs are proposed here as one response to
that challenge, and the book presents case studies of the
acquisition of initial HCI-EDPs, including an introduction; two
development cycles; and presentation and assessment for each. Carry
forward of the HCI-EDP progress is also identified. The book adopts
a discipline approach framework for HCI and an HCI engineering
discipline framework for HCI-EDPs. These approaches afford design
knowledge that supports "specify then implement" design practices.
Acquisition of the initial EDPs apply current best-practice design
knowledge in the form of "specify, implement, test, and iterate"
design practices. This can be used similarly to acquire new
HCI-EDPs. Strategies for developing HCI-EDPs are proposed together
with conceptions of human-computer systems, required for
conceptualisation and operationalisation of their associated design
problems and design solutions. This book is primarily for
postgraduate students and young researchers wishing to develop
further the idea of HCI-EDPs and other more reliable HCI design
knowledge. It is structured to support both the understanding and
the operationalisation of HCI-EDPs, as required for their
acquisition, their long-term potential contribution to HCI design
knowledge, and their ultimate application to design practice.
