Abstract
Analytical modeling complements traditional evaluation techniques like usability testing. Given some representation or model of the interface or the user, these methods enable the evaluator to inexpensively predict usability. A wide range of modeling techniques have been developed for non-web interfaces, and they support different types of analyses as discussed in [Ivory, 2001; Ivory and Hearst, 2001]. We are not aware of analytical modeling approaches that have been developed for use in the web site evaluation domain.
