  • Conference paper
Information Processing and Management of Uncertainty in Knowledge-Based Systems. Applications (IPMU 2010)

Part of the book series: Communications in Computer and Information Science ((CCIS,volume 81))

Abstract

This paper shows how a combination of usability and heuristics can be used to reduce complexity for privacy experts who create and maintain the knowledge base of a decision support system. This system helps people take privacy into account during decision making without being overwhelmed by the complexity of different national and sector-specific legislation.
