| Zusammenfassung: | The major types of cognitive processes are reviewed. It is shown how an understanding of these processes can lead to straightforward design solutions for visual programming and visual interface problems. A method for integrating cognitive and software engineering is presented. An example of the application of this method to the design and evaluation of a visual language for acquisition of task knowledge is given. Conclusions are drawn and future work is sketched out.< > |
