Abstract

This paper reviews recent developments in the area of software user interface standardization, and identifies issues that must be addressed before an effort to establish an American National Standards Institute (ANSI) software user interface standard can be successfully completed. Arguments supporting and opposing the establishment of software user interface standards are reviewed. Potential resolutions to the critical issues including technical, organizational, logistical, and political issues are identified and discussed.
