Title
Enhancing Usability Inspection Through Data-Mining Techniques: An Automated Approach For Detecting Usability Problem Patterns Of Academic Websites
Abstract
Usability is one of important attribute of software quality. It is associated with the "ease of use" of any system. Usability evaluation is becoming significant component of software development. Usability evaluation is performed through qualitative assessments. Qualitative assessments can be attained through Qualitative usability inspection (QUI). QUI methods emphasize on evaluating the interface of a specific system. These methods turn out to be complicated when huge number of systems related to similar context of use, are considered jointly to impart a general diagnosis. The principal cause for this is due to substantial quantity of information that should be conceptualized simultaneously. To handle substantial quantity of information, this paper proposes a novel approach that integrates QUI with automated woorank tool and data-mining techniques (association rules and decision tree). To validate this proposed approach, 50-academic websites are evaluated and usability problems patterns related to academic websites are identified by processing 2475 records.
