Abstract

A procedural interface enables users to concentrate on the task they are performing and to avoid any inappropriate overload coming from the use of desktop interfaces (where procedures are implicitly office-oriented). It automatically reconfigure itself depending its context of use, taking into account three types of cognitive functions: anticipation, interaction and recovery. A procedural interface involves several concepts such as simplicity, redundancy, cognitive stability and cognitive support. An example is provided in the domain of computer-supported meetings.
