Baker, Clifford, Eike, David R., Malone, Thomas B. and Peterson, Larry (1988): Update of DoD-HDBK-761: 'Human Engineering Guidelines for Management Information Systems'. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 32nd Annual Meeting 1988. pp. 335-339.

DoD-HDBK-761 "Human Engineering Guidelines for Management Information Systems" was extensively updated and revised to reflect 1) significant changes in computing technology, including user interface techniques and display technology, and 2) recent user computer interface (UCI) design literature. The document was updated based on literature reviews, mail-out surveys of UCI designers and users, and interactive computer interviews (using question and answer dialog). The updated document contains two main sections. The first presents a general process for conducting UCI analysis, design, development, and evaluation activities. These activities include; conduct of system functions analysis, function allocation, user task analysis, user surveys, use of UCI prototypes, and product testing. The second section contains over 1000 human engineering guideline statements which can be applied to the detailed design of UCIs. The guideline section addresses dialog design, computer control, data entry and display, job performance aiding, expert systems interface design, and data communication and protection. This paper discusses the content and organization of the document.
