Subject:      Human-Computer Interface tech reports available
 
The following tech report list is from the Human-Computer Interaction Lab at
the University of Maryland. They have been VERY active in the areas of
user-interface design, menu design, mental modelling, hypertext traversal,
mouse/touchscreen/cursor manipulation, etc.
 
This is a knockout resource on user-interface topics: I thought this would be
of great interest to PACS-L subscribers; next-generation OPACS, etc.
 
Got the list from alt.hypertext, forwarding with the permission of the author.

Subject: Re: refs for linear-nonlin trans?
 
We at the Human-Computer Interaction Laboratory at the University of
Maryland have done many studies about hypertext authoring, transformation,
and analysis.  Though we've stopped most of this research a couple years
ago, I'm sure our reports are still very applicable.  Below is our
entire list of tech reports, feel free to look it over and request the
tech reports that interest you.  Just searching for "hyper" may not give
you all the relevant reports.....
 
Also, please follow the contact info at the end of the list.
