Method of Pattern Development

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
User-Centered Interaction Design Patterns for Interactive Digital Television Applications

Part of the book series: Human-Computer Interaction Series ((HCIS))

  • 755 Accesses

In Chapter 6 the method applied for the pattern development is described. To develop the presented design patterns the following steps have been taken: Identification of the designers’ requirements for iTV design guidance Identification of a hierarchy of recurrent iTV interaction design problems Investigation and implementation of various solutions of identified design problems Identification of proven solutions of identified design problems and exploration of the solutions’ design trade-offs Forming a design pattern language based on the usability test results Evaluation of the content and form of the design pattern language developed
