Usability evaluation model development for chronic disease management mobile applications

Abstract

The ease of use while interacting with chronic disease management (CDM) applications leads the mobile application designers to integrate usability in their design process so that the usage of such applications become versatile, unique, user-friendly and successful. This paper aims to develop a usability evaluation model for CDM mobile applications through requirement gathering from real users and a systematic literature review (SLR). The analysis of current models and previous study results in a set of selected usability guidelines for mobile applications that are expended further into measurement model consisting of metric for evaluation.
