Abstract: The authors present ten MIS design considerations which have been useful in their experience. MIS design considerations are offered for (1) the availability and usefulness of information, (2) the context of the information processing task, (3) the amount of information to be processed, (4) the way the information is presented, (5) changes in the mode of presentation, and (6) the effect of individual differences on information processing.
