PDA for health professionals: can you deal with that?
Personal digital assistants (PDAs) are being increasingly used on the health field, however, there are not many papers guiding a PDA-software development process concerning its usability in health field. This paper presents our experience dealing with PDAs regarding some elements of usability. We have shown that if simple yet extremely important points are to be observed before and during the development process, usability on PDA software can be greatly improved.
