Bardram, Jakob E., Bunde-Pedersen, Jonathan and Soegaard, Mads (2006): Support for activity-based computing in a personal computing operating system. In: Proceedings of ACM CHI 2006 Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems 2006. pp. 211-220. Available online

“Research has shown that computers are notoriously bad at supporting the management of parallel activities and interruptions, and that mobility increases the severity of these problems. This paper presents activity-based computing (ABC) which supplements the prevalent data- and application-oriented computing paradigm with technologies for handling multiple, parallel and mobile work activities. We present the design and implementation of ABC support embedded in the Windows XP operating system. This includes replacing the Windows Taskbar with an Activity Bar, support for handling Windows applications, a zoomable user interface, and support for moving activities across different computers. We report an evaluation of this Windows XP ABC system which is based on a multi-method approach, where perceived ease-of-use and usefulness was evaluated together with rich interview material. This evaluation showed that users found the ABC XP extension easy to use and likely to be useful in their own work.”

Ballegaard, Stinne Aalokke, Bunde-Pedersen, Jonathan and Bardram, Jakob E. (2006): Where to, Roberta?: reflecting on the role of technology in assisted living. In: Proceedings of the Fourth Nordic Conference on Human-Computer Interaction 2006. pp. 373-376. Available online

“This paper reports on a study of a newly developed system for assisted living, which was implemented in the homes of seven elderly residents. Based on these findings we point out three fundamental issues that will enrich and improve the use of technology for assisted living in the home. Firstly, we argue that the technology must co-evolve with the elderly people as their needs change, thereby building on an existing familiarity with a given system or artifact. Secondly, we argue that there is a need to seriously take into account the qualities of the domestic setting in both design and deployment, and that social as well as clinical aspects must be considered when designing for assisted living. Thirdly, we argue that technology must be much easier to deploy, use and comprehend for the elder users. We then outline our future work on developing technology for assisted living.”
