Abstract:
<p>Traditional models of usability are not sufficient for software in the home, since they are built with office software in mind. Previous research suggest that social issues among other things, separate software in homes from software in offices. In order to explore that further, the use qualities to design for, in software for use in face-to-face meetings at home were contrasted to such systems at offices. They were studied using a pluralistic model of <em>use quality</em> with roots in socio-cultural theory, cognitive systems engineering, and architecture. The research approach was interpr

Abstract:
Much of the developed world is experiencing an aging population. This requires society to adapt to take care of a growing elderly population and improve their quality of life. Today, mobile systems are available that makes it possible to monitor and improve health (m-health). Even though these systems could be immensely helpful for the elderly population, this has not been the primary demographic for the current m-health systems. This case study aimed at examining how persuasive technology (technology for changing behavior and/or attitude) can be used to promote usage of m-health applications

Abstract:
As a result of developments, domestic usage of smart appliances by homeowners is increasing drastically. Clustering these appliances together and making them function as an efficient system defines a new place to live or new way of living called a “smart home”. While a smart home provides comfort to homeowners, realizing a smart home involves many technical and business oriented hurdles to be crossed. The primary goal of this thesis work is to design and evaluate the design of a residential gateway. This gateway should be designed as a standardized, secure, open source, hardware independent, a

In-home large displays such as TVs are becoming larger in size, and more interactive in function. They start to be simultaneously used by multiple people for various tasks in a dynamic setting. User interface issues such as multiple users sharing the screen resources of the displays, and the usage of multiple control devices have begun to emerge. We assume horizontally laid out “personal interaction spaces” as the user interface for multiple users to manage their screen real-estate. In this case, users often need to sign in and out as well as have their personal spaces placed on the screen. Al

No Brasil, ainda é pequeno o número de estudos que estão sendo publicados como resultados de pesquisas, no que diz respeito à usabilidade da interação humano-computador, em que projetistas e desenvolvedores de sistemas informatizados pouco utilizam os parâmetros ergonômicos para

Abstract:
The primary purpose of this research was to examine the adoption of computer security software in the home computer environment. The use of the Health Belief Model as a framework to design a model to examine home user adoption of computer security provided the basis for this research. The method of the investigation was a cross-sectional study using a self-reported web-based survey to test the theoretical model derived from the Health Belief Model. The survey targeted individuals who are responsible for the selection, installation, and maintenance of software on their home computers. The data

Abstract:
Current dialogue systems can handle friendly and collaborative communication that supports diverse types of interactions, such as menus in which the user is asked to choose an option, form filling in which the user is asked for specific information, commands for expressing users' orders, and complex questions that can even reference previously evoked entities. Consequently, dialogue systems seem to be useful for accessing different types of applications. In particular, spoken dialogue systems are appropriate for devices that do not allow web browsing, such as telephones, or the use of han

Abstract:
Au cours des dernières années, la révolution numérique a continué sa progression. Les technologies de l'information et des communications (TIC) ont totalement changé la vie quotidienne des gens à leur domicile (concept de « maison numérique »). Pendant ce temps, non seulement le volume des émissions de CO2 produit par les TIC, ce qu'on appelle l'empreinte carbone, est sans cesse en croissance mais elle s'accompagne également d'une hausse du prix de l'électricité, augmentant fortement la part des équipements numériques dans la budget global des ménages. Ainsi, pour des raisons environnementale
