Visualisation in document retrieval
an example of the integration of software ergonomics and an aesthetic quality in design
Bernhard E. Bürdek , Maximilian Eibl , Jürgen Krause
pp. 387-396
Today, software ergonomics on the one hand, and media design on the other, are two separate schools that have few common goals in the area of designing user interfaces and, naturally, they come up with different solutions. Whereas ergonomics place the accent on the most effective operation, interface and media design put the artistic, creative aspect in the foreground, ignoring efficient methods of program handling This article describes the practical attempt to combine both schools. As a working example we created a visualisation for a document retrieval system.
