The researcher use the data that are originally collected and then summarize the information according different authors. Then, the features and the criteria based on user satisfaction into selected e-museum search interface examined. The deliverables of this research is the key features of search interface, the usability factor to evaluate e-museum search interface and the criteria of features based on satisfaction factor. 2009 Thesis https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/66012/ https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/66012/1/66012.pdf text en public degree Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) Faculty of Computer Science and Mathematics Abd Manaf, Norehan
