PIAIRO, Jesus; MADUREIRA, Ana; PEREIRA, João Paulo  and  PEREIRA, Ivo. Desenvolvimento e avaliação de um interface com o utilizador para um sistema de escalonamento. RISTI [online]. 2013, n.11, pp.77-91. ISSN 1646-9895.  https://doi.org/10.4304/risti.11.77-91.

This paper describes the development and evaluation process of a user interface for a scheduling system. It is intended to provide the user with a graphical and interactive way in order to define a scheduling problem as well as an interactive way to visualize and adapt a scheduling plan. The realization of these goals was achieved through a modular prototype whose development was based on a methodology focused on the usability evaluation: the star life cycle. In order to evaluate the usability prototype an evaluation session was made, allowing not only the ease of use evaluation, but also observing the different interaction forms provided by each participant.

Keywords : Scheduling Systems; Human-Computer Interaction; User Interface Development; Usability Evaluation.
