@article{(Open Science Index):https://publications.waset.org/pdf/8683, title = {User Experience Evolution Lifecycle Framework}, author = {Maissom Qanber Abbasi and Philip Lew and Irfan Rafique and Zhang Li}, country = {}, institution = {}, abstract = {Perceptions of quality from both designers and users perspective have now stretched beyond the traditional usability, incorporating abstract and subjective concepts. This has led to a shift in human computer interaction research communities- focus; a shift that focuses on achieving user experience (UX) by not only fulfilling conventional usability needs but also those that go beyond them. The term UX, although widely spread and given significant importance, lacks consensus in its unified definition. In this paper, we survey various UX definitions and modeling frameworks and examine them as the foundation for proposing a UX evolution lifecycle framework for understanding UX in detail. In the proposed framework we identify the building blocks of UX and discuss how UX evolves in various phases. The framework can be used as a tool to understand experience requirements and evaluate them, resulting in better UX design and hence improved user satisfaction.}, journal = {International Journal of Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering}, volume = {6}, number = {1}, year = {2012}, pages = {41 - 46}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/8683}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/61}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 61, 2012}, }
