Woods, David D. and Elias, Glenn (1988): Significance Messages: An Integrated Display Concept. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 32nd Annual Meeting 1988. pp. 1350-1354.

“This paper describes one integral display concept -- Significance Messages -- which communicates the significance of a numerical value of some continuous parameter. The Significance Messages System combines a variety of kinds of raw data using software techniques from artificial intelligence in order to build a qualitative scale that communicates what a numeric value of some parameter means about the state of the application world given the current context. The Significance Messages concept is built as a generic "shell" that knows about different kinds of qualitative states, contextual factors, and heuristics to focus on relevant data. The designer enters domain specific, parameter specific knowledge about alarm setpoints, automatic system setpoints, etc. and about the specific contextual factors that are relevant to the interpretation of that parameter in order to create a particular Significance Messages Display for a particular application.”
