  • Publication number: 20190333083
    Abstract: Systems and methods for quantitative assessment of a user experience (UX) of a digital product. The traditional systems and methods do not implement usage context information is not explicitly as an input while assessing the UX. Embodiments of the present disclosure provide for the quantitative assessment of the UX of the digital product by assigning, by one or more hardware processors (104), a default value to each of a plurality of Key Performance Attributes (KPAs) (205), computing a set of weightages (210), computing, based upon the set of weightages (210) and the default value assigned to each of the plurality of KPAs (205), a plurality of score values (209), generating, by using a set of relative weightage values (211), a total cut-off score (212) to assess the UX of the digital product, categorizing the digital product in either one of pre-defined categories based upon a comparison of the total cut-off score (212) and a UX Assessment score (213).

  • Patent number: 9946433
    Abstract: A method for designing a user interface (UI) for an application includes receiving, from a user, a first response comprising user selected first answers and a second response comprising user selected second answers, to pre-defined questions. The method includes assigning significance to interface (STI) weightage to each user selected first answer with respect to pre-defined user experience parameters and assigning a significance to business (STB) weightage to each user selected second answer. Also, the method includes computing total actual effective weightage for each pre-defined user experience parameter based on STI weightages of user selected first answers and STB weightages of user selected second answers. The method further includes calculating total maximum effective weightage for each pre-defined user experience parameter based on maximum STI weightage and maximum STB weightage for each pre-defined question.

  • Patent number: 9158663
    Abstract: Systems and methods for evaluating a performance maturity level of a software application are described herein. In an implementation, the method includes obtaining at least one assessment parameter and at least one sub-parameter of the at least one assessment parameter, based on at least one of a key performance area and a key competency area. Further, a weightage is assigned to the at least one sub-parameter, the weightage being based on significance of the at least one sub-parameter to the assessment parameter. In addition, a performance questionnaire is configured, based on the at least one assessment parameter and the at least one sub-parameter. Subsequently, a maturity score is determined for the software application, in response to inputs to the performance questionnaire, the maturity score being indicative of the performance maturity level of the software application.

  • Patent number: 8990763
    Abstract: The present subject matter provides a system and a method for assessing user experience maturity (UXM) level for a software product. The method includes defining a set of hierarchical UXM levels that may be associated with one or more user experience (UX) parameters. Each of the one or more UX parameters may be assigned a weight based on relevance of the each of the one or more UX parameters. In addition, the method may include determining ratings for the each of the one or more UX parameters and evaluating a UXM score of the software product based on the ratings. Moreover, the method may include categorizing the software product in one of the hierarchical UXM levels based on the UXM score of the software product. The software product may be categorized if the UXM score is greater than a pre-defined threshold value for that hierarchical UXM level.
