Broos, Martin, Gammeren, Philippe van, Steenoven, Tim van and Haan, Geert de (2011): Creating a context-aware mobile application to enlarge social cohesion: skating together. In: Proceedings of the 2011 Annual European Conference on Cognitive Ergonomics 2011. pp. 261-262.

“This research is aimed at creating an application that adapts to its environment and brings people together. The question is whether this feasible for an audience that is not directly associated with social media products. A concept and a prototype have been developed as proof of concept that social applications can and should be build by focusing on the factors which determine social cohesion of the target audience. Context-awareness may increase the value of an app to its users thereby increasing the social cohesion in the community. Context-awareness also provides the data which enables designers to continue improving the usability of the design.”

Haan, Geert de (2011): Software design and media design: tools to design mobile and sensory interfaces and interactive environments. In: Proceedings of the 2011 Annual European Conference on Cognitive Ergonomics 2011. pp. 277-278.

“This paper discusses ETAG, a formalism for user interface design. We discuss the differences between computer software and media product design: media design is a much more flexible, iterative process and prototype-driven process which allows for continuous adaptation of the design.. Finally, to meet user requirements in ubiquitous computing and interactive environments, we propose to use co-design practices, sensory labs and living labs to push the usability lab into the real world.”

Haan, Geert de, Mulder, Ingrid and Marseille, Justien (2010): Friend or fiend: prototyping for social cohesion. In: Proceedings of the 2010 Annual European Conference on Cognitive Ergonomics 2010. pp. 377-378.

“Motivation -- Communication technologies providing location-based and social applications may stimulate social cohesion and community building in deprived neighbourhoods. This study investigates the expertise required to develop mobile, social and context-sensitive applications. Research approach -- Advanced students in Media Technology were instructed to create a mobile, social and context-sensitive application using a concept and programming tools of their own choosing. The students' progress was observed and the results were assessed in terms of technical soundness and social success. Findings/Design -- This study shows that it is not necessary to rely on computer experts or social experts to successfully create applications to increase the social cohesion within communities. Research limitations/Implications -- This study was limited by allowing participants to use themselves and their friends as the target community instead of an external community which is different from themselves. The success of the social computing apps was not investigated with an external community, this remains to be done in a subsequent studies. Originality/Value -- The study concerns an applied study into the use of communication technologies for community building. Take away message -- The results of a programming exercise indicate that applied science students are very well able to develop mobile, social and context-sensitive applications.”
