FIRST MASS VOTE ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND SECOND CALL FOR VOTES: comp.human-factors STATUS OF NEWSGROUP: unmoderated PURPOSE/CHARTER: To provide a forum for discussion of general issues relating to human-computer interaction (HCI) and human factors. HCI is an extremely broad topic. Examples of possible subjects for discussion include: * Design of keyboards, mice, joysticks. * Choice of command names and parameter syntax, and the effect on the number of mistakes users make. * Design of effective symbols for communicating information. * Control relations for scroll bars, switches and so on. * Use of Agents for representing semi-autonomous processes. * Use of colour in user interface design. * Methods for prototyping user interfaces. * How to evaluate the effectiveness of a user interface. * Designing effective dialogues for interactive programs. * Possible new forms of feedback -- sound, smell, touch. * Customizability vs. stability. At present, such discussions are scattered amongst the existing comp.* groups. SCHEDULE: 1991-05-30: Voting closes. Second mass acknowledgement.
