Abstract

In Office Information Systems, the primary focus has been to integrate facilities for the communication and management of information. However, the human factors aspects of the design of office systems are equally important considerations if such office systems are to gain widespread acceptance and use. The application of design techniques from Human Factors can help enhance the usability of an office system. In this paper, we describe the user interface of an office system developed by adapting such design techniques.
