Meta-Analysis and Investigation of Usability Attributes for Evaluating Operating Systems

Abstract

This relative study searches into the usability attributes of operating systems (OS) and inspects their severe effect on digital reciprocate and user consultation. The research directed unidentified, prime concern user-friendliness, orderliness, and ease of access as critical elements for a smooth user experience. The all-around evaluation surrounds user interface (UI) design, chart reading easiness, ease of access, orderliness, design evenness, adaptability, user experience curve, fault handling, and task performance. The detection is met through a survey-based approach involving solitary from software houses, providing an integrated understanding of how these attributes collectively donate to the usability of an operating system at first. A questionnaire was used to assess the satisfaction level of usability of an operating system, revealing its effectiveness in allowing users to utilize all modules and answer quiz questions effectively. This study contributes to the continuing discourse on usability, recommended for accessible, methodological, and adaptable operating systems in the energetic digital environment. Secondly, a Meta-analysis will be conducted on the dataset collected after performance-based activity on different university campuses and simulated results will be produced that show relationships between attributes and usability. In the end, specific recommendations for developing operating systems are proposed on behalf of survey-based analysis and Meta-analysis.
