Knowledge-oriented selection of usability engineering methods for mobility scenarios

Abstract

Different areas of application and scenarios necessitate different sets of usability engineering methods. The selection of these methods depends on a variety of conditions. This paper presents a new approach for selecting and combining usability engineering methods, dependent on individual conditions of the corresponding method, company-based and product-specific measures as well as an analysis of the knowledge in the area of application. The approach is exemplarily presented for the mobility and transportation sector, focusing on the knowledge-based selection of methods for mobility scenarios.
