DESIGN CHALLENGES [ Concluding Remarks | Design Changes During Different Cycles ]
Some of the most crucial challenges that we faced during the product development life cycle are described here.
 
ALIEN ENVIRONMENT
This was the biggest problem that we faced during the Software Prototype Development. Nevertheless we tackled this problem of alien environment and being amongst people who cant speak and understand our language and with whom we cant communicate in their native language be selecting our users who belonged to our country and society.
 
PROBLEM WITH USERS
We have had serious problems with our users even after careful selection. Each and every one of them have had there commitments and priorities like one of the users left for Spain during a crucial phase. Further more there were natural factors as well which were acting against us for ex one of our user fell ill and was unable to give us time after the contextual interview session.
 
DESIGNING OF AN INTERFACE OF LOW CAPABILITY GRAPHICAL DISPLAY SYSTEM
Designing for low capability graphical user interface devices was a big problem in itself. Any how this problem was solved to a great extent by applying Norman's principles, Interface Design Guidelines and continuous interaction with the users during all the phases of the product life cycle.
