Despite the advent of a flurry of digital technologies, paper prevails on manufacturing shopfloors. To understand the roles and value of paper on the shopfloor, we have studied the manufacturing practices at two state-of-the-art automotive supplier ...

The amount of interactive digital technology in cars is increasing rapidly. The result is a new platform that holds the potential to facilitate many different systems, interactions, and users both in and outside the car. Many systems and services from ...

The increasing number of interactive digital artifacts, capable of communicating with each other, have created a situation where software applications no longer need to be limited by the physical boundaries of a single artifact. In order to take ...

We present an approach for exploring materiality of digital artifacts by suggesting a study method---material probe. The purpose with the method is to understand how people perceive material qualities of artifacts and to discuss how designers could ...

We propose an inherently three-dimensional interaction paradigm which allows individuals to manage their personal digital artifact collections (PAC) regardless of the specific devices and means they are using. The core of our solution is to provide ...

U-Learning has emerged with the development of UbiComp. In the precomputer era, people can only learn from surrounding environment or other people. Given a subject, it is difficult to find out the concerning learning contents in the real environment. In ...

I use the term "collaborative", to identify a way that enables conversation to occur in, about, and around the digital medium, therefore making the "digital artifacts" contributed by all individuals a key element of a conversation as opposed to ...
