The Problem of Optimization of User Benefit in Scientific and Technological Information Transfer.

Abstract

The aim of this Meeting was to investigate the User/Service interface and to define users' problems particularly for aerospace, scientific and technical information. Systems designers and managers must ensure that the services they design and operate are fully responsive to the users' needs. This in turn entails defining the user population, identifying their pre-knowledge of the subject on which they wish to be informed, determining at what scientific level they can absorb information and deciding in what form the information should be presented. Papers were presented on these various but nevertheless co-related topics at the meeting, and there was a general discussion period on 'Applying the User/System Interface Analysis results to Optimize Information Transfer'.
