Human Computer Interface Specifications (HCIS) for the Integrated Maintenance Information System (IMIS)

Abstract

The Armstrong Laboratory Logistics Research Division (AL/HRG) is developing a proof-of-concept Integrated Maintenance Information System (IMIS). The IMIS will demonstrate the capability to access and integrate maintenance information from multiple sources and present the information to technicians and maintenance personnel through hand-held and workstation computers. A significant part of IMIS is the user interface. Current practices in the DoD procurement process do not emphasize the specification of a system's user interface as requirements. Instead, the user interface is often designed as the system develops. This paper documents a baseline user interface. specification for all IMIS applications and a detailed user interface specification for an interactive electronic technical manual (IETM) presentation system. Interactive electronic technical manuals, Technical data, IMIS, User interface, Maintenance information.
