Abstract
When computerized systems were first developed, and storage capacity was highly limited, the primary concern was the design of an efficient, reliable system which could store data in the most compact manner. Little regard was given to the human element of data entry and retrieval. Although there have been considerable advancements in computer technology, human factors considerations are still lacking. This results in the end user frequently becoming confused or frustrated when trying to interact with the software.

Recommendations
Integrating human factors and software development
CHI '88: Proceedings of the SIGCHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing SystemsApproaches to integrating human factors or user interface knowledge and expertise with software development are still exploratory and evolving. The human-computer interface provides a broader range of user interface challenges than earlier technology, ...
Human Factors and their Influence on Software Development Teams - A Tertiary Study
SBES '21: Proceedings of the XXXV Brazilian Symposium on Software EngineeringBackground: Software organizations increasingly need developers with high skills for social interactions. Managers, leaders, and academics need to know the human factors influencing the individuals, the development team, and the software project ...
"Leagile" software development
In recent years there has been a noticeable shift in attention from those who use agile software development toward lean software development, often labelled as a shift "from agile to lean". However, the reality may not be as simple or linear as this ...
