Ph.D

Stefan Carmien is a senior researcher at Fatronik, San Sebastian, Spain where is is part of the NeuroEngineers department. He is currently focused on developing and evaluating cognitive orthotics for seniors. His PhD thesis was the development and evaluation of a PC based script authoring and palmtop prompting system to support persons with cognitive disabilities and caregivers living more independently. Previous to his career in computer science, he was for 12 years a production and inventory control manager in manufacturing, and as such has had extensive real world experience with planning, modeling and reconciling models to actuality. He was a member of APICS (The Association for Inventory and production control) during the 80's when American industry was struggling with the challenges of just-in-time and high accuracy/high annual raw material turnover in response to the Japanese challenge. His research interests include: Human-computer interaction (HCI); assistive technology (particularly for persons with cognitive disabilities); social analysis and ethnographic studies of socio-technical systems; mobile technologies; contextually aware technologies; “everyday” artifacts; situated cognition; technology adoption.
