Designing to support situational awareness across distances : An example from a scientific collaboratory
- 2004
-
Ingår i: Information Processing & Management. ; 40:6, s. 989-
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- When collaborating individuals rely on situation awareness (the gathering, incorporation and utilization of environmental information) to help them combine their unique knowledge and skills and achieve their goals. When collaborating across distances, situation awareness is mediated by technology. There are few guidelines to help system analysts design systems or applications that support the creation and maintenance of situation awareness for teams or groups. We propose a framework to guide design decisions to enhance computer-mediated situation awareness during scientific research collaboration. The foundation for this framework is previous research in situation awareness and virtual reality, combined with our analysis of interviews and observations of collaborating scientists. The framework suggests that situation awareness is comprised of contextual, task and process, and socio-emotional information. Research in virtual reality systems suggests control, sensory, distraction and realism attributes of technology contribute to a sense of presence (Witmer & Singer, 1998). We suggest that consideration of these attributes with respect to contextual, task and process, and socio-emotional information provides insights to guide design decisions. We used the framework when designing a scientific collaboratory system. Results from a controlled experimental evaluation of the collaboratory system help illustrate the framework's utility.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this short paper, we present glimpses from an interdisciplinary research and development project aimed at enhancing local democracy by developing ICT support for the consultation process around the comprehensive plan of a municipality. For the participating researchers, the project offered the opportunity of combining and comparing approaches and methods from two different design traditions that share democratic ideals and ambitions of nurturing citizen/user participation in design processes. This proved to be more challenging than we had originally anticipated. Differences in perspective gave different interpretations of the design context as well as of how participatory the processes actually were.

- The production and distribution of information in connection with products and services is one of the most important functions in today’s business world. The ability to produce and deliver information to the right place on time is often crucial for the company’s reputation and sales. This paper address questions about how companies can establish a dynamic information system with the help of digital media technology and customisation of information. Customisation of information is a process where information is adapted and distributed on different media platforms. A case study of a manufacturing company with global information activity is presented. The case describes a renewal of the company's information strategy in relation to its customer’s preferences. The case demonstrates how multi-channel publishing, including electronic on-line medias, combined with digital printing can offer efficient tools to reach out to the customers with customized information.

From printed matters to information distribution New strategies in the Graphic Arts industry
- 2004
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Since the start of digitalization and the introduction of electronic medias suitable for publishing, i.e., the Internet, the printing industry has been struggling to find business models that can survive under these new conditions. Their main strategy up until now has been to find the niches where traditional printing matter is still unthreatened. Another strategy has been to approach the interactive electronic medias and personalize the printed matter with the help of digital printing presses, e.g., print-on-demand and personalized printing. However, long-term survival will demand a broader perspective. Far-sighted printing companies are therefore developing strategies that radically redefine their business. This paper discusses the reasoning behind the new strategies and presents a case study of a printing company that is transforming its activities from traditional printing into multi-channel production and information distribution.

Friendship. Interviews with persons with intellectual disabilities
- 2004
-
Ingår i: EuroRehab. ; :1, s. 13-20
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Focus is on friendship and persons with intellectual disabilities. Previous studies on social networks of persons with disabilities have shown that many persons live isolated and are not integrated in society. The article is based on a survey on integration and social interaction and the interviews were made both by video telephone and in personal communication. Sign language, pictures and Pictogram symbols were used to support the spoken language since most of the participants had a poorly developmed speech or were unable to talk verbally.
