Graves, Mike, Grisedale, Sally and Grunsteidl, Alexander (1998): Unfamiliar Ground: Designing Technology to Support Rural Healthcare Workers in India. In ACM SIGCHI Bulletin, 30 (2) pp. 134-143

“To broaden the reach of effective computing support into new environments requires different technologies from those we are accustomed to designing and using. One of the key aspects of the India Healthcare Project is to confront unfamiliar conditions and contexts in order to prototype effective hand-held computing support for rural Indian healthcare workers. The project involves introducing a technology relatively new to us (Newton), with unfamiliar characteristics (size, display, pen-input), to a community of users with which we were initially totally unfamiliar, doing a job about which we knew virtually nothing. Additionally, we needed to localize Newton software and the MessagePad hardware for Indian languages and physical conditions. In this paper, we lay out the challenges associated with such an undertaking, the strategies we have adopted, the current chronology of the project, some aspects of our current design, and our preliminary findings from field testing.”

“ Software design is the act of determining the user's experience with a piece of software. It has nothing to do with how the code works inside, or how big or small the code is. The designer's task is to specify completely and unambiguously the user's whole experience. ”

-- David Liddle, From Bringing Design to Software, edited by Terry Winograd, 1996 ”
