Abstract

A large numbers of user interface guidelines and patterns have developed by different researchers. These patterns and guidelines are, however, either too generic or too specific to use. In addition, a multitude of guides cause problems to find and use them effectively. Because of these problems, using different guides are not enough useful e.g. for software designers. This paper describes experiences and findings of a case study project. As a result of an iterative development process, the tailored user interface guideline is presented. Other result was that the guideline was well received by the software designers.
