Understanding the human factor by making understandable visualizations

abstract Architecture Frameworks offer many representations to visualize views. Unfortunately, many of these representations focus more on being complete and precise, rather than being understandable. Many of the stakeholders do insufficiently understand these representations. The designers at the same time do insufficiently understand the human factors in the system context, since most of these have been abstracted away.

We show that simple diagrams in, for instance, space and time help to bridge these two worlds and help both stakeholders and designers. We will illustrate this by examples from Magnetic Resonance Imaging.
