Abstract

This chapter presents a 'how-to' tutorial to a version of Lewis and Rieman's Task Centered System Design methodology. Using an example of an interface being developed for a catalogue store, we show in detail how a practitioner can identify key tasks, use those tasks to do a rudimentary requirements analysis, and how one can evaluate prototype designs through a task-centered walkthrough.
