CIS 524 Week 2 Case Study 1 User Interfaces For
more course tutorials visit www.newtonhelp.com  
Case Study 1 User Interfaces  Due Week 2 and
worth 90 points  Early user interfaces were
designed with little or no consideration for the
end user. This was largely due to technical and
hardware limitations. The poor interface design
required a specific skill set for users and
limited the mass appeal of computers. Modern
interfaces are much more user friendly. Theo
Mandel wrote about the five (5) golden rules of
interface design. Read Mandels article located

experience is very important to the success of an
application. In the early days of computing,
users often experienced long delays since
computing power was poor and networks had
comparatively slow throughput. Modern systems
have largely eliminated these delays due to
increased network and computing power, yet users
still report a high level of frustration.
