Software Design Cognitive Aspect

Software Design - Cognitive Aspects covers a variety of areas including software analysis, design, coding and maintenance. It details the history of the research that has been conducted since the 1970s in this fast-developing field before defining a computer program from a computing and cognitive psychology viewpoint. Detailed treatment is given to the two essential sides of programming; software production and software understanding and throughout the book parallels are drawn between studies on processing texts written in natural language and processing computer programs.
This book will be of particular interest to researchers, practitioners and graduate students in Computer Science, Cognitive Psychology, and Cognitive Ergonomics.

This book will help computer scientists become familiar with the increasingly important field of Psychology of Programming and Cognitive Ergonomics Provides a valuable source of knowledge transfer towards the computer science community Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
