Comparing the Usability of Graphical Modeling Languages Using FUEML

Chapter 6 in Usability Evaluation of Modeling Languages, 2013, pp 79-94 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Documenting, specifying and analyzing complex domains such as information systems or business processes have become unimaginable without the support of graphical models. Generally, models are developed using graph-oriented languages such as Event Driven Process Chains (EPC) or diagrams of the Unified Modeling Language (UML). For industrial use, modeling languages aim to describe either information systems or business processes. Heterogeneous modeling languages allow different grades of usability to their users. In the following chapter an evaluation of four heterogeneous modeling languages and their different impact on user performance and user satisfaction is conducted [Schalles et al., 2012]. The evaluation is based on the FUEML framework, which was developed in chapter 4 of this thesis.
