6 HMI Human Machine Interaction

This document discusses information design and human-machine interaction. It defines information design as preparing information so that it can be used by humans efficiently and effectively. It also discusses models of communication and interaction between humans and machines, including: - Ladislav Sutnar's communication schema of coding, transmitting, and decoding information - Paul Watzlawick's axioms of communication - A model of an operator reasoning and controlling a system - Standards for graphical user interfaces like WIMP and GOMS The document provides an overview of concepts relevant to designing effective information presentation and human-computer interaction.

Information design has been defined as the
art and science of preparing information so
that it can be used by human beings with
efficiency and effectiveness

Sensation modalities:

Olfaction
Gustation
Analog and Digital Communication
Analog Communication
Everything is expressed continuously by simile of
quantity.
There is not negation in Analog language.
Touch the intuition, imagination, metaphor, narration.
Digital Communication
Everything is expressed uncontinuously in the words.
Touch the reason, logic and dispassionate
argumentation.

Axioms of Communication
1. One Cannot Not Communicate.
2. Every communication has a content and
relationship aspect which is
metacommunication for the former.
3. The nature of a relationship is dependent on
the punctuation of the partners communication
procedures .
4. Human communication involves both digital
and analog modalities .
5. Inter-human communication procedures are
either symmetric or complementary

WIMP standard
W: Window(s)
I: Icon(s)
M: Menu(s); Mouse/Mice (rarely) (note that mice
are a subset of pointing devices)
P: Pointing device(s); Pointing; Pointer(s) (note that
the term "pointer" is often used as a synonym for mouse cursor); Pull-down
menu(s) (note that pull-down menus can be thought of as a subset of
menus)
WIMP interaction was developed at Xerox PARC
in 1973) and popularized by the Macintosh
computer in 1984.

GOMS standard
An approach to human computer interaction observation developed
in 1983 by Stuart Card, Thomas P. Moran and Allen Newell
Goals - what the user intends to accomplish.
Operators - actions that are performed to get to the
goal.
Methods - sequences of operators that accomplish
a goal.
Selection rules - user would select a certain
method over the others.
