Design Probes for Handheld and Ubiquitous Computing

by Harold Thimbleby
"... . In developing electronic gadgets, meters and oscilloscopes are used to probe into their workings, so that engineers can understand how they are behaving and how they can be improved. Analogously, this paper suggests a variety of conceptual probes that can be used to explore the process of desi ..."

of design. The probes focus designers' attention onto successfully managing complexity and in coping with socio-economic influences on design practice in the real world. 1 Introduction We may take it as self-evident that design should be good, yet it is also clear that it is di#cult to make it so

Reality Computing Handheld Computing

by Col Kenneth, L. Alford, Ph. D
"... of Defense. This article highlights some of the ways that PDAs are used today and are envisioned for the future. It outlines some of the considerations involved in a PDA procurement, discusses four tools for developing PDA resource materials – programming tools, hypertext markup language- and eXtens ..."
Abstract - Add to MetaCart
digital assistants (PDAs) allow computing resources to be almost ubiquitous. This article illustrates how handheld computing is changing the way some Department of Defense (DoD) organizations do business and discusses how you may take advantage of the capabilities that are available through

ActiveCampus -- Experiments in Community-Oriented Ubiquitous Computing

by William G. Griswold, Patricia Shanahan, Steven W. Brown, Robert Boyer, Matt Ratto, et al. - IEEE COMPUTER , 2003
"... The continuing proliferation of handheld computing devices holds out the promise for a new generation of computing applications that could enrich our experience of the world around us. Yet many issues must be overcome for this vision to be realized: What applications will enrich our lives? What kin ..."

Understanding user centred opportunities for supporting consumer behaviour through handheld and ubiquitous computing

by Mark Perry - In Proceedings of HICCS-36, IEEE Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences , 2003
"... Moving around our physical environment, we are surrounded and interact with information that exhorts and stimulates us to buy things. For most of us, not all of these impulses are followed: products may be too expensive, too hard to understand, similar to a product we already own, or other reasons. ..."

of consumer behaviour, and largely ignores the experiential nature of such behaviour. As a response, we present a study examining the reasons why purchasing impulses are deferred. Results are used to inform thinking and motivate design solutions for new mobile consumer services and technologies. 1.

Implementing Physical Hyperlinks Using Ubiquitous Identifier Resolution

by Tim Kindberg - Proceeding of 11th International World Wide Web Conference , 2002
"... physical hyperlinks, identifier resolution, ubiquitous computing, nomadic computing Identifier resolution is presented as a way to link the physical world with virtual Web resources. In this paradigm, designed to support nomadic users, the user employs a handheld, wirelessly connected, sensor-equipp ..."

Ubiquitous Secretary: A Ubiquitous Computing Application Based on Web Services Architecture

by Salmin Sultana, Rezwana Karim, Rifat Shahriyar, Md. Mostofa Akbar, Sheikh Iqbal Ahamed
"... Due to the extensive availability of wireless internet connectivity and low cost light weight mobile devices, an omnipresent customizable service is not a vision anymore. With enhanced wireless connectivity, the handheld mobile devices (PDA, smart phone, cell phone, etc.) can act as a digital person ..."

such as education, tourism, shopping or business, at any time and at any place. Here we present Ubiquitous Secretary, which is designed and developed to accomplish the above objectives. Ubiquitous computing applications developed so far are all independent and rich in their own domains but they suffer from

Architectures for ubiquitous systems

by Umar Saif , 2002
"... Advances in digital electronics over the last decade have made computers faster, cheaper and smaller. This coupled with the revolution in communication technology has led to the development of sophisticated networked appliances and handheld devices. “Computers ” are no longer boxes sitting on a desk ..."

Proxemic-Aware Controls: Designing Remote Controls for Ubiquitous Computing Ecologies

by David Ledo, Saul Greenberg, Nicolai Marquardt, Sebastian Boring
"... Remote controls facilitate interactions at-a-distance with appliances. However, the complexity, diversity, and in-creasing number of digital appliances in ubiquitous com-puting ecologies make it increasingly difficult to: (1) dis-cover which appliances are controllable; (2) select a par-ticular appl ..."
