Comprehension-Based Approach to HCI for Designing Interaction in Information SpaceThe traditional view of HCI has been based on a cognitive psychological analysis, in which people have to translate their intentions into the language of the computer and have to interpret the computer's response in terms of how successful they were in achieving their goals. However, with the ubiquity of information appliances, this view becomes inadequate. People are no longer simply interacting with a computer they are interacting with but they use various combinations of information appliances and media available for them to accomplish their tasks defined in information space. This opens up the possibility that any single task can be accomplished in various ways. This paper argues that such users' interaction processes can be better viewed as the processes consisting of comprehension of the current situation formed by integrating various sources of available information, followed by selection of an appropriate action based on the comprehension. A set of implications for interaction design for information space is derived based on this comprehension-based view of HCI.
