Abstract

Usability is recognized as a critically important quality of software, as evidenced by its inclusion in SE 2004: Curriculum Guidelines for Undergraduate Degree Programs in Software Engineering. However, many techniques for designing useful, usable and desirable software depend on knowledge and skills in the behavioral sciences, making them difficult for SE students to learn and for SE educators to teach with confidence. This tutorial will introduce SE educators to a quantitative usability assessment method that has had over 100 papers validating its predictions in the Human-Computer Interaction literature and a tool embodying that method suitable for inclusion in SE courses.

一种用于软件工程课程的定量可用性评估方法
可用性被认为是软件的一个至关重要的品质,这一点在SE 2004:软件工程本科学位课程指南中得到了证明。然而,许多设计有用、可用和令人满意的软件的技术依赖于行为科学的知识和技能,这使得SE学生很难学习,SE教育者也很难自信地教授。本教程将向SE教育者介绍一种定量可用性评估方法,该方法在人机交互文献中已有100多篇论文验证了其预测,并且是一种体现该方法的工具,适合纳入SE课程。
