商品描述

Description

Larry L. Constantine teams with Lucy A. D. Lockwood to present the models and methods of a revolutionary approach to software that will help programmers deliver more usable software--software that will enable users to accomplish their tasks with greater ease and efficiency. Much more than just another set of rules for good user-interface design, this book guides readers through a systematic software development process. This process, called usage-centered design, weaves together two major threads in software development methods: use cases (also used with UML) and essential modeling. With numerous examples and case studies of both conventional and specialized software applications, the authors illustrate what has been shown in practice to work and what has proved to be of greatest practical value.

描述
Larry L. Constantine 與 Lucy A. D. Lockwood 聯手提出一種革命性軟體的方法與模型，幫助程式設計師交付更具可用性的軟體——使使用者能夠更輕鬆且高效地完成任務的軟體。這本書不僅僅是另一套良好使用者介面設計的規則，而是引導讀者通過一個系統化的軟體開發過程。這個過程稱為以使用為中心的設計，將軟體開發方法中的兩個主要線索結合在一起：使用案例（也用於 UML）和基本建模。作者通過大量的範例和案例研究，展示了在實踐中被證明有效的做法，以及那些具有最大實用價值的內容。
