User-Computer Interface Technology: An Assessment of the Current State of the Art
Abstract
There is an obvious challenge for those doing research and development work in user-computer interaction to identify and track research developments from a wide range of related fields. This assessment of relevant literature is intended to extend the user-computer R&D community's appreciation for some of the current trends, directions, accomplishments and challenges in developing intelligent interactive system interfaces. The basic document consists of an assessment of the state-of-the-art based upon the analysis of 39 representative recent publications. These are analyzed in terms of defining the problem, recent developments toward intelligent interfacing and difficulties in developing intelligent interfaces. Conclusions and suggestions are offered concerning promising areas for research and development. The document also contains an annotated bibliography in which the contents of 57 recent publications relevant to user-computer interface technology are summarized. This document will prove useful to anyone seeking a definition and synopsis of the state-of-the-art in intelligent user-computer interface technology.
