  1. 1. User Consideration in Early Stages of Product Development : Theories and Methods

    Author : Jenny Janhager; Margareta Norell Bergendahl; MariAnne Karlsson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Engineering design; Man-machine interaction; product development method; scenario technique; technical process; user; Konstruktionsteknik; Construction engineering; Konstruktionsteknik;

    Abstract : Traditional design theories have focused on technical functions and more or less disregard a product’s user involvement. The existing methods of ergonomic designare mostly intended for analysis activities. There is a need for new dynamic methods that focus on user-product interactions. READ MORE

  2. 2. “The technology is great when it works” : Maritime Technology and Human Integration on the Ship’s Bridge

    Author : Margareta Lützhöft; Sidney Dekker; James M. Nyce; Edwin Hutchins; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; integration; man-machine-interaction; human-machine; Cognitive science; Kognitionsvetenskap;

    Abstract : Several recent maritime accidents suggest that modern technology sometimes can make it difficult for mariners to navigate safely. A review of the literature also indicates that the technological remedies designed to prevent maritime accidents at times can be ineffective or counterproductive. READ MORE

  3. 3. Unleashing Animal-Computer Interaction : A Theoretical Investigation of the “I” in ACI

    Author : Fredrik Aspling; Oskar Juhlin; Clara Mancini; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Animal-Computer Interaction; Multispecies Ethnography; Theory; Theoretical Pluralism; Actor-Network Theory; Ethnomethodology; Rhetorics; Kinesthetic Empathy; Man-Machine-Interaction MMI ; människa-maskin-interaktion MMI ;

    Abstract : Non-human animals have had a long co-existence and relationship with human culture and society, and we interact with them in a number of ways, and for various reasons. Their involvement in technology can be traced back more than half a century, initially restricted to scientific contexts, for example, for the study of animal behavior, cognition, or language learning abilities.

  4. 4. Web Applications for Large-Scale Decision Support : Preference Elicitation, Modeling and Visualization

    Author : Samuel Bohman; Aron Larsson; Bo Sundgren; Majlender Peter; Göran Cars; Øystein Sæbø; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; World Wide Web; Decision Support Systems; Data Visualization; Man-Machine-Interaction MMI ; människa-maskin-interaktion MMI ;

    Abstract : This thesis addresses the lack of effective and efficient technology design in current e-participation research by investigating two approaches that yet have not been explored to any great extent in the literature: decision science and data visualization. It is concerned with the problem of how to combine techniques from these two fields to achieve decision support in the context of e-participation; from preference elicitation and modeling to data analysis, visualization and final recommendations, such that it can provide value to practitioners.
