“…Evaluation of small releases with stakeholder participation does not ensure that the whole system provides a consistent conceptual, navigational or content model [19]. Nevertheless, the discussions about agile approaches to UID led to a movement in the HCI community, which began to reconsider its user-centered heavy-weight lifecycles [19,14,21,17]. Both SE and UID have to cope with a shorter time-tomarket, in which the quality of the delivered software must not suffer.…”

“…The continuous shortening of development lifecycles is therefore a great challenge both for management and the methods and tools applied. Many experts, who are likely to have a home in both SE and HCI, consequently faced up to the issue by developing approaches to light-weight or so called agile human-computer interaction, for example, eXtreme Usability [21]. Agile approaches to HCI are the second necessary pillar for bridging the gap between SE and HCI.…”

We seek to close the gap between software engineering (SE) and human-computer interaction (HCI) by indicating interdisciplinary interfaces throughout the different phases of SE and HCI lifecycles. As agile representatives of SE, Extreme Programming (XP) and Agile Modeling (AM) contribute helpful principles and practices for a common engineering approach. We present a cross-discipline user interface design lifecycle that integrates SE and HCI under the umbrella of agile development. Melting IT budgets, pressure of time and the demand to build better software in less time must be supported by traveling as light as possible. We did, therefore, choose not just to mediate both disciplines. Following our surveys, a rather radical approach best fits the demands of engineering organizations.

“…For almost 40 years, experiences have shown that software engineering methods (e.g. the waterfall model, V model and recently agile methods such as Scrum) often result in poor user experience (Holzinger and Slany, 2006). One of the reasons for this is that requirement specifications (in particular regarding the user interface and interaction design) often do not reflect the real needs of the users.…”

This paper reports on collaborative work with an SME, developing a system for data acquisition in health care organisations, providing mobile data support. We briefly introduce the ICF and the ICD classification scheme from the WHO as a foundation for our mobile application. A two-staged usability evaluation in a very early stage of development allows us to integrate user-centred design in the mobile application development process. Our procedure comprises interviews and usability tests with a limited number of users and thus can even be performed within a resource-constrained setting as it is typically found in smaller software development teams. We discuss the consolidated results of the usability tests quantitatively and qualitatively. From these results we deduce recommendations (and open issues) concerning the user interface design of the mobile application.
