the two extremes of overload and underload. As
noted by Dewar (2002, p. 330) “humans operate
best at an optimal level of arousal, and either too
much or too little workload can be detrimental
to performance”.
The development of suitable methods for
designing and evaluating in-car computing
user-interfaces will continue to be an important
research topic. Reliable and valid methods are
required which are accepted within industry. A
key motivation will be to establish 'quick and
dirty' methods (and associated metrics) enabling
designers to understand the likely demands of
their user-interfaces early in the design process
when very rudimentary prototypes are available.
A further critical requirement is for “benchmark-
ing”, that is, establishing a point of reference
from which user-interfaces can be compared or
assessed. Such benchmarks will be of particular
benefit when identifying user-interface designs
that are considered acceptable or unacceptable,
particularly from a safety perspective.
