4. 2. Thinking beyond the Cure : a constructive design research investigation into the patient experience of radiotherapy

   Author : Tara Mullaney; Erik Stolterman; Helena Pettersson; Johan Redström; Jodi Forlizzi; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; constructive design research; patient experience of radiotherapy; actor networks; design experiments; composite methodology; mixed-methods; prototyping; design research; research through design;

   Abstract : This constructive design research dissertation aims to understand how design can be used as part of a composite research approach to generate knowledge about how complex phenomena are composed through their interactions and relationships with various actors, both human and non-human. It has done this by investigating a single phenomenon, the patient experience of radiotherapy. READ MORE

5. 3. Design Moves : translational processes and academic entrepreneurship in design labs

   Author : Luca Simeone; Katarina Wetter Edman; Malmö högskola; []
   Keywords : design studies; interaction design; design management; academic entrepreneurship; translation; design moves; modes of translation; strategic ambiguity;

   Abstract : This study investigates the relation between the design activity and entrepreneurial ambition of three academic labs: MIT Senseable City Lab, metaLAB (at) Harvard, and Medea at Malmö University. These labs are positioned at the borderland of academic research, as they operate in connection with external stakeholders (industry, NGOs, government institutions) through, for example, joint strategies of intellectual property management or the creation of start-ups.

6. 4. Facility layout design with simulation-based optimization : A holistic methodology including process, flow, and logistics requirements in manufacturing

   Author : Enrique Ruiz Zúñiga; Anna Syberfeldt; Matías Urenda Moris; Masood Fathi; Jesús Muñuzuri; Högskolan i Skövde; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Production and Automation Engineering; Produktion och automatiseringsteknik;

   Abstract : Adaptability and flexibility are becoming key concepts in manufacturing. Today manufacturing companies often have to deal with random disruptive events, which necessitates significantly more complex manufacturing systems. READ MORE

7. 5. Sound perception and design in multimodal environments

   Author : PerMagnus Lindborg; Anders K. Friberg; Daniel Västfjäll; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; sound; perception; design; multimodal; environment; soundscape; music; listening; crossmodal; psychoacoustics; psychophysiology; personality trait; emotion; appraisal; aesthetics; colour; correlation; regression; classification; sonification; Tal- och musikkommunikation; Speech and Music Communication;

   Abstract : This dissertation is about sound in context. Since sensory processing is inherently multimodal, research in sound is necessarily multidisciplinary. The present work has been guided by principles of systematicity, ecological validity, complementarity of  methods, and integration of science and art. READ MORE
