Proceedings of the ACM CHI 98 Human Factors in Computing Systems Conference April 18-23, 1998, Los Angeles, California. pp. 590-594.

“In this paper, we describe the unique characteristics of medical environments, particularly trauma. We describe how those characteristics challenge traditional human factors methods, and the enhanced methods that work well for each development phase of medical product design.”

Coury, Bruce G., Motte, Susan and Seiford, Lawrence M. (1991): Capturing and Representing Decision Processes in the Design of an Information System. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 35th Annual Meeting 1991. pp. 1223-1227.

“Incorporating the decision processes used by people in complex decision tasks is one of the most significant challenges facing designers of information systems. The need to capture and represent those decision processes is a fundamental part of the development of any information system and requires input from users. The purpose of this paper is to present an approach to the design of information systems that identifies the information needs of the user, reveals the reasoning process and decision strategies employed by users to make decisions, and represents those processes and information requirements in such a way as to enhance system development. The research combines user needs analysis with cognitive modeling to provide the basis for the design of a prototype information system. The paper shows how user needs analysis provides the knowledge and information necessary to cognitively model the decision processes of users in a particular problem domain.”
