USER INTERFACE DESIGN
A user interface is the part of the system with which the users interact. It includes the screen displays that provide navigation through the system, the screens and forms that capture data, and the reports that the system produces (whether on paper, on the Web, or via some other media). This chapter introduces the basic principles and processes of interface design and discusses how to design the interface structure and standards.
