Summary
Automatic collection of statistics is far better than subjective questioning.
Subtopic: analysis
Quote: ZOG's UserInterface is instrumented to collect static, dynamic and log statistics [»robeG5_1981] Quote: ZOG log statistics are a time stamped log of every keystroke and system response [»robeG5_1981] Quote: a documentation manager can find out how a document is accessed by users [»carlPA_1988] Quote: maintain time-stamped log of user operations [»smitJB6_1987] Quote: automated usability testing by uploading statistics, suggestion boxes, and dialogue boxes that test user comprehension at error messages [»duttG9_1993] Quote: use logs and analysis tools to study the use of web applications [»manbU8_2000]
Subtopic: surveys
Quote: analyze use log by parsing it with a grammar [»smitJB6_1987] Quote: Simscript has an 'accumulate' statement of automatically collecting statistics or a histogram [»simscrip_1971, OK]
Subtopic: algorithms
Quote: design a survey by first agreeing on what the result tabulations should look like [»joneTC4_1979b]
Subtopic: statistics
Quote: heuristic algorithm for dynamically calculating the median and other quantiles as the observations are generated [»jainR10_1985] Quote: if a count reaches its limit, reduce by half, increment an overflow count in a hashed table, and set a flag; reverse for decrementing [»lampBW10_1983]
Quote: a statistical result is stronger if fewer subjects yielded a given confidence level
