View source for Keystroke-Level Model (KLM)

Keystroke-level [[model]], sometimes referred to as KLM or KLM-GOMS, is an approach to human–[[computer]] interaction, developed by David Kieras and based on [[CMN-GOMS]]. The model is an 11-step method that can be used by individuals or companies seeking ways to estimate the time it takes to complete simple [[data]] input tasks using a computer and mouse. By using KLM-GOMS, individuals often find more efficient or better ways to complete a task simply by analyzing the steps required in the [[process]] and rearranging or eliminating unneeded steps. It is designed to be easier to use than other GOMS methods, such that companies who cannot afford human–computer interaction specialists can use it. KLM-GOMS is usually applied in situations that require minimal amounts of work and interaction with a computer interface or [[software]] [[design]]. The calculations and the number of steps required to accurately compute the overall task time increase quickly as the number of tasks involved increases. Thus, KLM-GOMS is best suited to evaluate time specific tasks that require, on average, less than 5 minutes to complete.<ref>What is Keystroke-Level Model (KLM)?
