Liinasuo, Marja, Aaltonen, Iina, Karvonen, Hannu, Fuentes, Beatriz and Castro, Alfonso (2012): Human Operator Perspective to Autonomic Network Management. In: Proceedings of the 2012 International Conference on Advances in Computer-Human Interactions 2012. pp. 128-134.

“Autonomic Communications is a promising approach for the management of future networks, based on providing self-management and other self-x capabilities to the network elements. Network Governance approach aims to develop new methods for operators to efficiently manage this intelligent infrastructure, ensuring human-to-network communication. This paper presents an interview-based analysis of the expertise of human network operators in their network management activity and the derived requirements for the governance of a self-managed network from a human point of view. The requirements cover the aspects of trust, division of labor between human operators and self-x functionalities, self-x design and human-to-network interface.”

Karvonen, Hannu, Aaltonen, Iina, Wahlström, Mikael, Salo, Leena, Savioja, Paula and Norros, Leena (2010): Unraveling metro train driver's work: challenges in automation concept. In: Proceedings of the 2010 Annual European Conference on Cognitive Ergonomics 2010. pp. 233-240.

“Motivation -- We focused on the question: "What is the significance of the train driver in the metro system?" We were especially interested in challenges related to an automation concept of a driverless metro. Research approach -- Metro train drivers' work and the metro system as a whole was examined in interview and field observation studies based on the core-task analysis method. Afterward, a mirror data workshop was organised. Findings/Design -- We describe the diversity of metro train driver's work: in addition to accelerating or braking and door opening or closing, the driver contributes to a variety of other functions in the metro system. For example, the driver maintains an awareness of the surrounding environment and facilitates communication between different actors of the system. Research limitations/Implications -- The participants for both the interview (N=12) and field observation study (N=4) were chosen in advance by the metro organisation. The small sample in the observation study might have also affected the results. Originality/Value -- Our paper analyses the role of the driver in the metro system. The results suggest that a change to a driverless system can affect the quality of service and raise safety issues. The results can be applied to automation implementations also in other domains. Take away message -- There is more to driving a metro train than meets the eye.”

Karvonen, Hannu (2010): Different aspects of trust in ubiquitous intelligent transportation systems. In: Proceedings of the 2010 Annual European Conference on Cognitive Ergonomics 2010. pp. 311-314.

“Motivation -- The purpose of this research is to analyze different aspects of human trust affecting to the use of ubiquitous intelligent transportation systems. In general, the aim is to contribute to the conceptual foundations of trust in human-technology interaction. Research approach -- In addition to a literature review, various approaches from user psychological laboratory studies with a driving simulator to interview and field observation studies of authentic situations are used. Findings/Design -- The preliminary results suggest that even though these kinds of safety-critical ubiquitous systems are designed to improve safety, they can often have contrary effects when users' trust towards them is inappropriate. Research limitations/Implications -- Only Finnish based university students have participated in the driving simulator studies, which limits the possible generalisation of the findings. Originality/Value -- Previous public research regarding trust in ubiquitous intelligent transportation systems has been scarce. However, some applicable results have been achieved in the field of traditional ubicomp research. This research also makes a contribution to study the user psychological aspects of the concept of trust in ubiquitous intelligent transportation system. Take away message -- Trust is one of the most important factors that needs to be taken into account when evaluating and designing new ubiquitous intelligent transportation systems.”

Karvonen, Hannu, Saariluoma, Pertti and Kujala, Tuomo (2010): A Preliminary Framework for Differentiating the Paradigms of Human-Technology Interaction Research. In: Proceedings of the 2010 International Conference on Advances in Computer-Human Interactions 2010. pp. 7-12.

“The purpose of this paper is to clarify the differences between approaches in the research field of human-technology interaction. We are especially interested in individuating user psychology from the more traditional paradigms. Therefore, we suggest a preliminary theoretical framework of criteria for distinguishing and individuating the different interaction research paradigms. The framework consists of five dimensions in which the paradigms may vary from each other. In this paper, we also discuss how ubiquitous computing is related to some of the dimensions. In addition, we focus on defining the new elements user psychology can bring to the discussion and analysis of human-technology interaction. To demonstrate the usage of the framework, we apply it to differentiate user psychology from traditional HCI research.”
