    Importance of HIP in HCI

    HCI (human-computer interaction) is the study of how people communicate with


    computers and how computers are or are not developed for effective human interaction.
    HCI consists of three sections, as its name suggests: the user, the computer itself, and
    the ways they function together. We can mean "user" as an individual user, a
    community of users who work together. It is important to understand the way the
    sensory systems of people (sight, hearing, touch) transmit knowledge. Different users
    also establish different conceptions or conceptual models of their experiences and have
    different ways of learning and retaining knowledge. Furthermore, cultural and national
    distinctions play a role. We apply to any technology, ranging from desktop computers to
    large-scale computer systems, when we speak about computers. For instance, if we
    were discussing a website's design, the website itself would be referred to as' the
    machine.' It is also possible to consider devices such as cell phones or VCRs to be'
    computers.'

    Differences between humans and machines are apparent. In spite of this, HCI tries
    to ensure that they both get on with each other and communicate effectively. You need
    to apply what you know about humans and computers, and consult with likely users
    throughout the design process, to achieve a usable system. The schedule and the
    budget are important in real systems, and it is vital to find a balance between what
    would be ideal for the users and what is feasible in reality.

    For me, the human information processing system is amazingly versatile, one
    source of its tremendous power; indeed, the problem-solving prowess of a human being
    is not yet addressed by any computer. Such versatility exists in part because different
    types of representations can not only be used, but can also be used in various ways.
    Using only propositional representations, some reasoning may be most effectively done,
    and other reasoning may be most successful using a mixture of types of
    representations. In certain types of reasoning, photographs play a key role, if only as
    'mental notepads,' allowing one to keep track of the stuff being argued about and the
    relationships between them. It is, however, clear that images do not support logic alone.
    Images must be 'under description': any given image could have an infinite number of
    meanings (for example, an apple could stand for an apple, fruit, worm food,
    motherhood, etc.), and yet when we have an image, we are not confused about what
    we think about. Processes that themselves are not ambiguous must interpret the
    picture. Therefore, within the context of a bigger processing framework, which often
    makes use of propositional representations, the importance of imagery in reasoning
    must be understood.
