Ben Shneiderman is an American computer scientist and a founding figure in the field of human-computer interaction, long based at the University of Maryland. He developed the concept of direct manipulation interfaces and articulated the widely taught Eight Golden Rules of interface design, and his early 1980s research on highlighted, selectable text links contributed to the technical groundwork later used for hyperlinks on the web.
