Investigation of Exploratory Information Needs and Information-Seeking Scenarios of DTIC End-Users

Abstract

This report reviews user needs assessment and requirements analysis techniques appropriate for DTIC to use in the design and development of information retrieval services. It reports the application of several techniques (semi-structured interviews, scenarios, personas) that were applied to investigate the exploratory information needs of a small group of DTIC end-users. It documents scenarios and personas developed from the interviews, and provides recommendations for applying the techniques more extensively.
