dc.description.abstractHighly specialised domains demand highly granularised and variability of configuration elements to support multiple domain configurations at that level. Configurable systems that have limited configurational elements are bound by their elements to be adaptable to a select few domains and contexts. In this study, we propose design changes and enhancements to the DHIS2 configuration layer and resulting data collection tools to support its adaptability in multiple domains. We suggest that the process of adaptation should not involve transference of initial domain specific UI properties to other domains. Continued evolution of the platform at the feature level is required to make it more adaptable to other domains. Provision of a variety of configuration elements enables implementation level designers to explore, provide and meet a set of usability design configuration needs and goals in respective use cases.
