A User Interface is the visible, physical representation of systems that allow users to interact with them and use the systems’ functionalities. It is an abstracted description of the system’s behavior, pared down to avoid overloading the user with irrelevant or unnecessarily abundant information. [Heymann, Degani, 2007] {SYN: Interface} |
