Abstract

This paper combines generally known knowledge about information dashboards and tools used for data visualization with findings in the field of visual perception and user interface evaluation, and discusses the idea of a new approach of information dashboard evaluation which predicts a rate of information dashboard usability and comprehensibility. Described approach is based on decomposing the evaluation problem into several views in which different aspects of dashboard usability are analyzed. Emphasis is put on automation of this approach, which can save time and money, on the contrary to testing on real users.
