چکیده

Mit rechnergesteuerten Einrichtungen haben es heute nicht nur Ingenieure und Informatiker zu tun, sondern mehr und mehr Menschen mit unterschiedlichem fachlichen Hintergrund, mit verschiedenartigen Aufgaben in wechselnden Situationen und mit unterschiedlicher Motivation. Die vielschichtige Gemeinschaft der Anwender solcher Systeme und deren Einsatzszenarien wachsen rasch. Die Spannweite reicht von kleinen, allgegenwärtigen und oft mobilen Systemen, die oft derart in Produkte integriert sind, dass ihre Einbettung eher unbewusst wahrgenommen wird (Ubiquitous Computing), bis hin zu hochkomplexen Systemen unter Einbeziehung von Methoden der Virtual, Augmented und Mixed Reality. Die erstgenannten Systeme müssen im Allgemeinen für jedermann und ohne spezielle Ausbildung bedienbar sein – stellvertretend sei das Mobiltelefon genannt. Die letztgenannten Systeme sind zumeist im professionellen Umfeld angesiedelt und werden von geschulten Experten benutzt – stellvertretend sei der Computertomograf genannt.
