Description

Human-operated systems often suffer from designers’ limited consideration of user capacities and how they impact system performance. In many instances, technological capabilities and constraints drive design decisions. There is often a sense that if it can be done technologically, it will be done. However, this approach can prove to be an unwise appropriation of funds, time, and other resources. Justification should not simply rest on satiating a technology craving.
