What do you people think about the use of theses diagrams to
introduce usability in the design and develpment process?
Guillermo,
Personally, I think you're probably asking the wrong question.
I'd like to know more about where this question is coming from. What
problem are you trying to solve? What have you tried before and what
challenges are you trying to overcome?
Using generic notions of usability process to talk about introducing
into the design and development process is like saying, "Everyone
should eat healthy and get exercise." Beyond over-generalized
motherhood-and-apple-pie (apologies for the American-centric idiom)
notions that every product should be as usable as possible, it's
impossible to talk about any specifics without the context of what
you're trying to accomplish.
The result is an "Well, it depends" answer -- something I find I hate
saying. (We used to sell a t-shirt with this motto, but I pulled it
because I felt it was too condescending.)
That's why I think you're struggling finding the resource you're
seeking. It doesn't really exist beyond inapplicable generalities.
