Some problems of implementation of standards in the field of human - computer interaction

Abstract

The main purpose of publishing of standards relating to the system human - computer consists in the fact that their application provides ergonomic design of individual system components, but their application also may have to provide safe, efficient and comfortable user experience. Although international standards, such as for example ISO 9241, by their nature and content permit their worldwide application, they are usually implemented in practice and applied within a limited number of countries. This paper discusses some problems related to designing and adoption of standards in the field of human - computer interaction, as well as the difficulties associated with the practical application of these standards.
