Data visualization and electronic health records

Software requirements

  • Use case experiment - hotline system New 11-01-2012
    In 2009 we conducted an experiment where several professionals and researchers specified requirements for a hotline support system. We got eight replies based on traditional use cases and seven based on task descriptions. It turned out that use cases couldn't cover the customer's needs in areas where improvement was important but difficult. Tasks didn't have this problems and were better in other ways too. See more
