Title
Human-Centered Design Processes for Interactive Systems
International Organization for Standardization
Publication Date:
Jun 1, 1999
Scope:
This International Standard provides guidance on human-centred design activities throughout the life cycle of computer-based interactive systems. It is aimed at those managing design processes and provides guidance on sources of information and standards relevant to the human-centred approach.
This International Standard is concerned with both hardware and software components of interactive systems.
NOTE Computer-based interactive systems vary in scale and complexity. Examples include off-the-shelf (shrink wrap) software products, custom office systems, plant monitoring systems, automated banking systems and consumer products.
This International Standard addresses the planning and management of human-centred design. It does not address all aspects of project management.
This International Standard provides an overview of human-centred design activities. It does not provide detailed coverage of the methods and techniques required for human-centred design, nor does it address health and safety aspects in detail.
The main users of this International Standard will be project managers. This International Standard therefore addresses technical human factors and ergonomics issues only to the extent necessary to allow managers to understand their relevance and importance in the design process as a whole. Such issues are dealt with more fully in ISO 9241 (see bibliography) which is complementary to this International Standard and is aimed at system developers, specifiers and purchasers of systems. Nonetheless, all parties involved in human-centred system development, including the end-users of systems, should find the guidance in this International Standard relevant.
