Tidskriftsartikel (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- Kartan och planen. An kartlägga eller konstruera. En motsatsställning mellan det skapade och det upptäckta. Mellan det byggda och det funna. Var skapas det upptäckta och var upptäckts det skapade? Är kartläggandet en avbild eller är det en skapad och konstruerad plan? Och är då planen är en sorts karta?

Designing Future Interaction with Today's Technology
- 1999
-
Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Information Technology has an increasing part of our lives. In this thesis we will discuss how technology can relate to humans and human activity. We take our standing point in concepts like Calm Technology and Tacit Interaction and examine how these visions and concepts can be used in the process of designing an artifact for a real work practice. We have done work-place studies of truck-drivers and traffic leaders regarding how they find their way to the right addresses and design a truck navigation system that aims to suit the truck drivers work practice.

Crossing Learning Boundaries. The Utility related Virtual Organisation ISES
- 1997
-
Ingår i: VoNet http://www.virtual-organization.net. - Bern : Pascal Sieber. ; 5
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Due to changing circumstances, organisations start to co-operate with their competitors or with firms form other industries that can complement their range of products. This development of independent partners sharing, their resources and equipment with each other, can also be seen in the Swedish utility industry and will soon happen to other utility businesses after the deregulation of the European utility industry has become a fact. The co-operation can be seen as a virtual organisation and this research project investigates how virtual organisations operate and how partners establish and maintain such an organisation. For this reason the R&D virtual organisation ISES, formed by the utility related joint venture EnerSearch AB, is taken as a case study. When comparing a virtual organisation with traditional organistions, five boundaries are presented that can both create and inhibit learning and communication. Since learning can be viewed as a major objective of a virtual organisation, the five boundaries ar e discussed in more detail and are related to empirical results in the project ISES. These boundaries in time, space, diversity, structure, and distribution are characteristics of a virtual organistion. By observing this organisation, opportunities and obstacles of a virtual organisation are found that could help organisations who would like to establish a virtual organsition. One example is the difference in decision styles or personality of the members of a virtual organistion, which influences information distribution, communication and co-operation.

Virtual versus Physical : The Future?
- 1996
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- In organisational science, new organisational concepts such as business process re-engineering and virtual organisations are developed. These new types of organisation have more advanced and different requirements on their information technology (IT) support, since the relation between the organisation and its IT system is much tighter for these organisation types. We disucss potential problems of traditional IT approaches in these organisations. As an alternative, we propose a different perspective on the role of IT, i.e., we view the organisation as consisting of a physical and a virtual layer that both are active, equally important and contain models of each other.

Virtualising the Utility Industry through Interorganisational Learning
- 1997
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Due to changing circumstances, organisations start to co-operate with their competitors or with firms from other industries that can complement their range of products. This development of independent partners sharing their resources and equipment with each other can also be seen in the Swedish utility industry and will soon happen to other utility businesses after the European utility deregulation has become a fact. This co-operation can be seen as a virtual organisation and research is performed on how virtual organisations operate and how partners establish and maintain such an organisation. For this reason the R&D virtual organisation called ISES formed around the utility related joint venture EnerSearch AB. When comparing a virtual organisation with traditional organisations, five boundaries are presented that can both create and inhibit learning and communication. Since learning can be viewed as a major objective of a virtual organisation, the five boundaries are discussed in more detail and are related to empirical results in the project ISES. These boundaries are time, space, diversity, structure and distribution and are characteristics of a virtual organisation. By observing this organisation, opportunities and obstacles of a virtual organisation are presented that could help organisations who initiate to establish a virtual organisation. One example is the difference in decision styles or personality of the members of a virtual organisation, which influences information distribution, communication and co-operation.

Computeranwendungen und sprachlicher Kontext. Zu den Wechselwirkungen zwischen normaler und formaler Sprache bei Einsatz und Entwicklung von Software
- 1997
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Menschliche Sprache wird in der traditionellen Softwaretechnik als Problem betrachtet. Sie gilt als ungenuegend zur Spezifikation und Entwicklung von Computeranwendungen. Die Flexibilität und Offenheit normaler Sprache ermöglicht es auf der anderen Seite, ueber immer neue Bereiche auf verschiedenste Art zu kommunizieren und zu reflektieren. Wie kann diese kreative Seite menschlicher Sprache bei Entwicklung und Gestaltung von Software beruecksichtigt werden? Anhand des Begriffs der symbolischen Maschine von Sybille Krämer und der Sprachtheorien Humboldts und Wittgensteins werden die im Kontext der Argumentation wichtigen Eigenschaften formaler und normaler Sprache herausgearbeitet. Ansätze zur Gestaltung von Computeranwendungen, die ihre Einbettung in nrmale Sprache beruecksichtigen, und zur Einbeziehung von normlaer Sprache bei der Softwareentwicklung werden aufgezeigt.

Developing a Language for Participation. Project Language as a Meeting Place for Users and Developers in Participatory Software Development
- 1998
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- During participatory development different professional groups with different professional languages meet. They have to communicate about the future software in a profound way. To enable that, a common way to talk about the future software has to be developed, relating concepts of the use context and concepts of software development. An example of the development of such a project language is given and the relevance of this for design is argued for. To support the development of a project language a toolkit is provided in which methods are compiled that respects the creative side of ordinary language.

How to make Sense of Software. Interpretability as an Issue for Design.
- 1998
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- In the context of CSCW ? especially through ethnomethodological work place studies - the stability of particular work practices and therefore the ability to design software that fits with continually evolving work practices is questioned. This challenge for software development has been called 'design for unanticipated use'. Using the concept of interpretability, I attempt to answer this challenge. A semiotic perspective on computer applications as formal symbol manipulation systems is introduced. A case study involving three alternative ways of using a computer application shows how users make sense of such symbolic machines. Wittgenstein's concept of language games is used as a 'figure of thought' to relate practice, language, and the use of symbolic machines. The development of an interpretation, fitting the implemented symbol manipulation and supporting the specific understanding of the task, remains crucial for competent use. Interpretability is introduced as a quality of computer applications. In order how to support the user in developing her own interpretation, a concept for help systems is described.
