Facing with the fast development of mobile phones, the designers need to evaluate user performance for early responding to the potential interaction problems. Previous studies show that the original Keystroke-Level Model (KLM) has been successfully used in conventional computer-based interaction design. However, with the emphasizing of the next-generation design and new interactions in mobile phones, the existing KLM cannot fulfill all range of mobile-based tasks. This research aims to present discussions on extending KLM for mobile phone interaction. In addition to the basic operators in conventional KLM, another fourteen new operators and a new concept - operator block were proposed. This extended KLM will help designers to reach a full-fledged user performance model for mobile phone interaction.
