Within Wikipedia, "Username" may refer to Wikipedia:Username. For information on altering
your own username, see Wikipedia:Changing username.

Within a computer program or website, a user is often represented by an abstract icon of a person

A user is a person who utilizes a computer or network service.


A user often has a user account and is identified to the system by
a username (or user name). Other terms for username include login
name, screenname (or screen name), account name, nickname (or nick)
and handle, which is derived from the identical citizens band radio term.
Some software products provide services to other systems and have no direct end
users.

End user[edit]
See also: End user

End users are the ultimate human users (also referred to as operators) of a software
product. The end user stands in contrast to users who support or maintain the product
such as sysops, database administrators and computer technicians. The term is used to
abstract and distinguish those who only use the software from the developers of the
system, who enhance the software for end users.[1] In user-centered design, it also
distinguishes the software operator from the client who pays for its development and
other stakeholders who may not directly use the software, but help establish
its requirements.[2][3] This abstraction is primarily useful in designing the user interface,
and refers to a relevant subset of characteristics that most expected users would have
in common.
In user-centered design, personas are created to represent the types of users. It is
sometimes specified for each persona which types of user interfaces it is comfortable
with (due to previous experience or the interface's inherent simplicity), and what
technical expertise and degree of knowledge it has in specific fields or disciplines. When
few constraints are imposed on the end-user category, especially when designing
programs for use by the general public, it is common practice to expect minimal
technical expertise or previous training in end users. [4]
The end-user development discipline blurs the typical distinction between users and
developers. It designates activities or techniques in which people who are not
professional developers create automated behavior and complex data objects without
significant knowledge of a programming language.
Systems whose actor is another system or a software agent have no direct end users.

A user's account allows a user to authenticate to a system and potentially to


receive authorization to access resources provided by or connected to that system;
however, authentication does not imply authorization. To log into an account, a user is
typically required to authenticate oneself with a password or other credentials for the
purposes of accounting, security, logging, and resource management.
Once the user has logged on, the operating system will often use an identifier such as
an integer to refer to them, rather than their username, through a process known
as identity correlation. In Unix systems, the username is correlated with a user
identifier or user id.
Computer systems operate in one of two types based on what kind of users they have:

 Single-user systems do not have a concept of several user accounts.


 Multi-user systems have such a concept, and require users to identify themselves before
using the system.
Each user account on a multi-user system typically has a home directory, in which to
store files pertaining exclusively to that user's activities, which is protected from access
by other users (though a system administrator may have access). User accounts often
contain a public user profile, which contains basic information provided by the account's
owner. The files stored in the home directory (and all other directories in the system)
have file system permissions which are inspected by the operating system to determine
which users are granted access to read or execute a file, or to store a new file in that
directory.
While systems expect most user accounts to be used by only a single person, many
systems have a special account intended to allow anyone to use the system, such as
the username "anonymous" for anonymous FTP and the username "guest" for a guest
account.
Username format[edit]
Various computer operating-systems and applications expect/enforce different rules for
the format.
In Microsoft Windows environments, for example, note the potential use of: [5]

 User Principal Name (UPN) format – for example: UserName@Example.com


 Down-Level Logon Name format – for example: DOMAIN\UserName

Terminology[edit]
Some usability professionals have expressed their dislike of the term "user" and have
proposed changing it.[6] Don Norman stated that "One of the horrible words we use is
'users'. I am on a crusade to get rid of the word 'users'. I would prefer to call them
'people'."[7]
Users of computer systems and software products generally lack the technical expertise
required to fully understand how they work. [8] Power users use advanced features of
programs, though they are not necessarily capable of computer
programming and system administration.[9][10]
