    Abstract : Design practices are to a large degree conceptually and methodologically based in ways of designing rooted in the 20th century. Some of the challenges that arise in contemporary design stem from an unawareness of design’s historicity, and the discrepancies between what design methods and concepts once were made to handle, and what we presently try to apply them to.

  4. 2. User-Centred Systems Design : Designing Usable Interactive Systems in Practice

    Author : Bengt Göransson; Jan Gulliksen; Anders Hektor; Liam Bannon; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; user-centred systems design; usability; human-computer interaction; system development; user involvement; usability design; Information technology; Informationsteknologi;

    Abstract : Have you ever been frustrated with that IT system at work that does not behave the way you expect it to? Or had problems with using the features on your new mobile phone? When systems and appliances do not support us in what we are doing, and do not behave the way we expect them to, then usability is neglected. Poor usability may be frustrating and irritating when trying out your mobile phone, but in a critical work situation poor usability may be disastrous. READ MORE

  5. 3. The Significance of Things : Affective User-Artefact Relations

    Author : Viktor Hiort af Ornäs; Högskolan i Skövde; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; User-centred desig; User experience; Significant things; Significant use; Significant consequences; Technology; Teknik; User Centred Product Design; Användarcentrerad produktdesign;

    Abstract : Products help people act, but also thrill, excite, and elicit fear, joy and anger. Artefacts are a natural part of people’s everyday lives, sometimes associated with values, dreams and aspirations. While traditional user-centred approaches have focused on efficiency and effectiveness of use, injury prevention etc. READ MORE

  6. 4. Consideration of anthropometric diversity : Methods for virtual product and production development
