    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Datavetenskap med inriktning mot människa-datorinteraktion; Computer Science with specialization in Human-Computer Interaction;

    Abstract : Despite the knowledge on the interaction between humans and computers, too many IT systems show great deficits when it comes to usability. Every day we run into technology that makes our every day life and our work unnecessarily complex and difficult because of the IT systems that are not designed to support our tasks in a usable way.

  2. 2. Conceptualising Prototypes in Service Design

    Author : Johan Blomkvist; Stefan Holmlid; Ylva Fernaeus; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : Service design; Prototyping; Thesis; Service Prototyping; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : To date, service prototyping has been discussed academically as an unproblematic add-on to existing prototyping techniques, or as methods for prototyping social interaction. In fact, most of the knowledge on how services are prototyped comes from organisations and practicing design consultants. READ MORE
