A large array of evaluation methods have been proposed to identify Website usability problems. In log-based evaluation, information about the performance of users is collected and stored into log files, and used to find problems and deficiencies in Web page designs. Most methods require the programming and modeling of large task models, which are cumbersome processes for evaluators. Also, because much statistical data is collected onto log files, recognizing which Web pages require deeper usability analysis is difficult. This paper suggests a novel quantitative method, called the D-TEO, for locating problematic Web pages. This semiautomated method explores the decomposition of interaction tasks of directed information search into elementary operations, deploying two quantitative usability criteria, search success and search time, to reveal how a user navigates within a web of hypertext.

Quantitative Runge Approximation and Inverse Problems
Rüland, Angkana; Salo, Mikko (Oxford University Press, 2019)In this short note, we provide a quantitative version of the classical Runge approximation property for second-order elliptic operators. This relies on quantitative unique continuation results and duality arguments. We ... -
A New Method to Reconstruct Quantitative Food Webs and Nutrient Flows from Isotope Tracer Addition Experiments
López-Sepulcre, Andres; Bruneaux, Matthieu; Collins, Sarah M.; El-Sabaawi, Rana; Flecker, Alexander S.; Thomas, Steven A. (University of Chicago Press, 2020)Understanding how nutrients flow through food webs is central in ecosystem ecology. Tracer addition experiments are powerful tools to reconstruct nutrient flows by adding an isotopically enriched element into an ecosystem ... -
Between the number and the word : quantitative methods in business history revisited
Eloranta, Jari; Ojala, Jari; Valtonen, Heli; Poso, Eetu (Edicions de la Universitat de Barcelona, 2023)This article extends our earlier analysis (2010) to gauge, first, to what extent quantitative methods have been used in recent business history research and, second, the impact that quantitative methods may have had on the ... -
