Report on evaluation plan and usability study

The purpose of this report is to set the basic roadmap for evaluation and testing of the Prismarch platform. The software is being developed and will be released as a minimum viable product to satisfy the development requirements set on previous project deliverables.
The evaluation consists of two basic components for data gathering. The evaluation plan focuses on the software outputs and deliverables and how these compare against the predefined set of minimum requirements. There is a more technical approach to the evaluation plan and outputs are easier to measure and quantify. The second component is the usability study which aims to measure and quantify the interaction and user experience with the software, in a diversified crowd of users. As an outcome of the evaluation and usability process, a set of measurable quantitative and qualitative outcome measures will be produced, aiming to assess the overall software performance, as well as serve as future input to improve and optimise Prismarch.
