The document discusses the concept of context awareness in computing systems and the differences between sensor context and people context. Sensor context refers to machine-readable data like GPS coordinates and accelerometer readings, while people context refers to meanings derived from social and cultural practices. The document argues that a focus only on sensor context can lead to spurious connections and misses important aspects of how people understand and interact with technology in their lives. Understanding both sensor context and people context is important for designing context-aware systems that are useful and meaningful to users.

What We Talk About When We Talk About Navigation (IA Conf 2019)
- The document discusses how the term "navigation" has come to narrowly refer to menus on screens, but navigation actually refers to how people navigate and understand their entire environment.
- It argues that as professionals, we should think of navigation more broadly as how people perceive and act in an environment to understand it and meet their needs, rather than just focusing on menus.
- We are designing for people's entire lives and ecosystems, not just individual screens, so we need to consider how people navigate complex, multi-screen systems and understand underlying meanings and relationships.
Life, actually: An All Channels Open approach to real time research on the move
We know that people behave irrationally, spontaneously, sub consciously, and non-sequentially. However, research is still largely isolated, linear, and at a single point in time. Why do we tell people they have to fill out a survey in one sitting, or join a discussion at their desktop at 8pm on a Monday night or drive 20 miles to a focus group facility on a wet Wednesday in January only to be asked to remember what they were doing in Waitrose at 3pm last Thursday?
This is not how people live their lives.
Mobile research methodologies have started to open the door to a new way of collecting data, but its potential will remain unfulfilled if the prevailing methodological wisdom is to simply think of mobile as another way to deliver the same techniques, or simply focus on gathering insight quickly.
Designing platforms for research should be done solely in the best interest of the people taking part in the research, allowing them to complete tasks on any device they want, maximising the potential of that device, and blending devices as needed. We can then allow people to tell us their thoughts in an online discussion one day, from any device they have to hand at the time, record experiences via their phone in real time, via both qualitative and quantitative means, before engaging in a dialogue with a skilled researcher about their behaviours or sharing with their peers and discovering new insights about each other as a group.
When research reflects how people make decisions, based on how we know people to be, and that they live their lives in a series of disconnected moments, we will get more natural, open, engaging and real insight.
Mitdigitalsixthsense
The MIT Digital Sixth Sense created by Pranav Mistry is a wearable gestural interface that augments physical reality with digital information. It projects information onto surfaces using a pocket projector and camera, allowing users to interact with this information using hand gestures. The system tracks colored markers on the user's fingertips to interpret gestures and interact with projected application interfaces, essentially turning any surface into a digital screen. Pranav Mistry is a PhD student at MIT who created Sixth Sense to seamlessly integrate digital and physical worlds by allowing all information to be accessed through natural hand movements.
The sixth sense
Sixth Sense is a wearable technology that augments the physical world with digital information. It consists of a camera, projector, and mirror connected to a mobile phone. The camera tracks hand gestures and objects, sending this data to the phone. The phone processes the data and the projector projects the resulting digital information onto surfaces through the mirror. This bridges the gap between the digital and physical worlds, allowing users to interact with digital information via natural hand gestures.
The Rise of Open Data
An exploration of how openly shared, passively collected, and persistent personal data is providing individuals with scaffolding and feedback for complex tasks. The resulting technosocial impact is a shifting of the locus of control from centralized management and production of resources, decentralizing towards individuals.
Data in the city
“The modern city is becoming a pointer system, the new URL, for tomorrow’s hybrid digital–physical environment. Today's Facebook will be complemented by tomorrow's Placebook. Explosive innovation and adoption of computing, mobile devices, and rich sources of data are changing the cities in which we live, work, and play. It's about us, and how computing in the context of our cities is changing how we live. A digital landscape overlays our physical world and is expanding to offer ever-richer experiences that complement, and in emerging cases, replace the physical experience. In the meta–cities of the future, computing isn't just with us; it surrounds us, and it uses the context of our environment to empower us in more natural, yet powerful ways.”

Biohackers Summit 2015 - Lifelogging, a new era of Personal Data
Dr. Cathal Gurrin discusses lifelogging, which uses wearable devices and sensors to automatically record everything an individual sees, hears, learns and experiences, creating a complete record of their life. The challenges are extracting value from this data and developing applications. Potential applications include enhancing memory, health, relationships and learning. Key areas discussed are segmentation of data, indexing and developing search engines and interfaces to support retrieval, reflection and reminiscence using lifelog data. Privacy is also a major consideration.
Six sense
Sixth sense technology aims to more seamlessly integrate online information and technology into everyday life by linking digital devices and interactions with the physical world without using the standard five senses. It was initially developed at MIT as a gesture interface and 3D drawing pen, and has evolved into a prototype that uses a camera, projector, and smart phone worn around the neck to recognize objects and automatically display information that can then be accessed in various ways. Some potential applications include calling up maps, checking the time, getting product information, and more.

Earables for Personal-scale Behaviour Analytics
Wearables are embracing AI, transforming the way we live, act, learn and behave as social human beings. However, what’s at stake for this “PopSci rhetoric” to happen is nothing short of an enormous multifaceted challenge. In this talk, I will explore the system and algorithmic challenges in modelling behaviour in this augmented human era. In particular, I will discuss how an "Earable" can be used as a multi-sensory computational platform to learn and infer human behaviour and to design ultra-personal connected services.
IoT 3.0 : Connected Living in an Everything-Digital World
We are observing a monumental effort from the industry and academia to make everything connected. Naturally, to understand the needs of these connected things, we need a better understanding of humans and where, when, and how they interact. Then we can create digital services and capabilities that fundamentally change the way we experience our lives. Right now IoT is all about connectivity, and scale. Next generation IoT will be about learning and contextual automation. Designing intention- and behavior-aware services will be the principal source of differentiation, and competitive advantage for the industry players.
To this end, in this talk I explore how wearable devices and Wi-Fi network can be used as a sensing platform to understand you and the world around you and to design future consumer facing connected services.
Computational Behaviour Modelling for the Internet of Things
This document discusses computational behavior modeling for the Internet of Things. It begins by posing questions about the future of connected devices and apps. The author then discusses using sensors, learning, and actions to create useful IoT devices like a smart thermostat. However, many current IoT devices are dismissed as solving no real problems. The document outlines using wireless networks and wearables to understand human context and behavior through large datasets of user activity traces and applying machine learning. Challenges are discussed around privacy and participation guarantees. Applications include people analytics, productivity management, and space management to quantify enterprises. The future may include contextual automation through multi-modal sensing and deep learning on devices, networks, and infrastructure to better understand environments and activities.
The Programmable Internet of Things
This talk will focus on a concept first described as “the internet of things” and subsequently as the “internet of everything” and “the programmable world/internet.”

1. Gesture control without touching devices like Leap Motion.
2. Augmented reality through devices like Google Glass that fuse the virtual and real worlds.
3. LightSail's compressed air energy storage which could provide the world's most cost-effective energy storage.
4. Five billion people gaining internet access which will further connect the world.
Emerging Consumer Trends
Presented at FPRA's Annual Conference (Aug 2013) this presentation highlights 5 key consumer trends with examples and adds another 7 to consider. Created to help PR pros better understand consumer behaviors, the slides present research-based data along with examples.
Sixth sense technology
Sixth Sense is a wearable device that augments reality by projecting digital information onto physical surfaces using an attached pico-projector and mirror. It allows users to interact with this projected information using natural hand gestures recognized by an onboard camera. Some key applications include accessing information about physical objects by pointing at them, drawing on surfaces, getting maps and directions, checking the time with a gesture, and taking photos. The system has potential for hands-free interaction with information and enhancing understanding of the physical world around us.
Media is killing Social Media - BBH LIVE
In the age of ‘all data everything’ we are overwhelmed with metrics and measurements on every platform, piece of content and behaviour. This has many benefits to brands and content creators as we discover how to optimise our output, what works and where to invest. Brands spent $27 billion buying media on Facebook in 2016, a 57% year on year increase. This rise and rise of paid media on social, along with the metrics, kpis and jargon that come with it is suffocating creativity in digital marketing and wasting brands money.
Combined with the marketing shift to short termism has led us to measure efficiency over effectiveness. We’re looking for immediacy rather than impact, reach over resonance and prioritising a ‘2 second 50% in view’ view over a genuine reaction. The reason attention spans are so low is that people are utterly indifferent to ads. Therefore brands in to declare war on indifference and grab peoples attention. Brands should focus on making content, not adverts that are non consensual and peer-to-peer.
BBH LIVE take you through their 10 commandments for how to cut through and bring the social back to social media.
London IA: Urbicomp & the new new media.
This document discusses the changing role of designers as digital technologies and ubiquitous computing become more prevalent. It notes that designers now must understand how people will interact with and experience technologies, as passive actions can now have unintended consequences. As sensors and data collection become more common, designers' work involves making invisible data flows understandable to users. The interconnected nature of digital technologies means that adding a network connection can significantly change any medium.
Multitasking
Multitasking negatively impacts the brain and is an ineffective way to accomplish tasks. Most people are unable to truly multitask and instead switch between tasks rapidly in a way that impairs performance. Scientific studies show that multitasking diminishes cognitive abilities like mental organization and memory, and that multitaskers have more difficulty switching between tasks. While many continue to multitask due to a misbelief in their abilities, it is an inefficient way to work that wastes time and reduces productivity.

The system provides a powerful and precise way to track intellectual property in specific topics and represents an improvement over existing commercial alerting services.
I Cafe Ordering Process
The document outlines the process an iCafe must go through to obtain Microsoft licenses through an authorized reseller and distributor. The reseller first checks if the iCafe is eligible by submitting its information to the distributor, who then confirms with Microsoft and adds the iCafe to the eligibility list if approved. The iCafe provides documentation to the reseller, who sends it to the distributor to formally add the iCafe and secure a purchase order for licenses, which are then delivered to the iCafe upon acceptance by Microsoft.
Mobile Score Notification System
Education is one of the main pillars and key concerns for each society in general. In developing countries, in particular in Afghanistan, we observe a remarkable increase in enrollment in education and higher education institutions, but most of the students don't have proper access to their scores. For instance, while Kankor result is announced the vast amounts of traffic the visitors generate make the website completely down and inaccessible. Another example, There is no efficient method to access the university scores in particular for students from other provinces. Last but not least, Diploma and certification verification is a lengthy and complicated process, when graduated students apply for jobs and scholarships inside or outside of Afghanistan they are asked to provide their certificate and diploma. One of the solutions can be verification of the graduation documents through SMS.
In Herat Innovation Lab 2015, Education group members under the mentorship of Abdul Rahman Sherzad chose this social and educational domain problem and within three days they designed and developed a prototype solution that enable students to access i.e. Kankor Scores Result, University Scores Result, Faculties Announcements and Events, and Certificate/Diploma Verification via SMS, Mobile and Web Applications effectively and efficiently.
[CONTEXTS'10] Using context awareness to foster active lifestyles
The document discusses using context-awareness to develop mobile applications that foster active lifestyles. It describes a CASanDRA architecture and middleware for mobile context-aware applications. The middleware acquires context like motion, location and time from sensors and uses reasoning to provide applications with intelligent context inferences. It also allows dynamic configuration and aggregation of sensor and application components. The goal is to develop personalized, preventative healthcare applications that monitor and motivate users to adopt healthier behaviors.
SenSocial
SenSocial is a middleware proposed to simplify the implementation of applications that integrate online social network (OSN) and mobile sensor data streams. It uses a publish-subscribe interaction model to allow applications to subscribe to different data streams. This reduces programming effort and lines of code compared to not using SenSocial. Two prototype applications demonstrated reduced lines of code by 9 and 24 times when using SenSocial. The paper argues that integrating OSNs and sensor data can provide richer contextual information and SenSocial is presented as a solution to simplify building such ubiquitous computing applications.

Intelligent Wireless Sensor Network Simulation: Flood Use Case
1. The document presents a new formalization of context for adaptive context-aware systems using a flood use case.
2. Key entities in the context model are observable entities, which are directly observed by sensors, and entities of interest, whose characterization is inferred from observable entities.
3. In a simulation of the flood use case, an adaptive context-aware system that reasons about the states of precipitation, watercourse, and outlet observable entities and infers the state of the flood entity of interest more efficiently manages context than a classic system, reducing the number of transmitted data packets.

Designing a Future We Want to Live In - UX STRAT USA 2017
The document discusses the importance of user experience strategy in the context of new technologies like artificial intelligence. It argues that as technologies become more pervasive in our environments and able to perceive and act on their own, it is crucial to understand them not just as products but as "users" themselves that experience the world differently than humans. The document advocates taking a holistic, service design approach to understand how technologies fit into and shape human contexts and experiences. It also stresses the need for UX professionals to engage at strategic, organizational levels and consider all stakeholders to ensure technologies are developed and used in truly human-centered ways.
Possibilities and perils of the data-driven world.
I gave this lecture and led a discussion at the Future Insight summit in Oslo, Norway, March 13, 2014.
This was an introduction to subjects relating to the data-driven world, including a lengthier bit on the Quantified Self.
I improvised from the presenter notes.They give a pretty good sense of the contour of the talk.
In the Q and A session, people were mostly concerned about privacy implications of personal data collection.
My short answer is that I am also concerned, and think we need to broaden the discussion of privacy so that it transcends the concept of unwanted exposure and recenters itself on questions relating to the terms of exchange of personal data as they relate to social and economic value.
Making data more human
Jer Thorp's work focuses on adding human context and narrative to large amounts of data. He has created several exploratory tools to model and visualize data in ways that tell stories and reveal relationships. For example, he designed an algorithm to lay out the names at the 9/11 memorial based on relationships between victims. His tools for modeling information sharing online and human mobility data aim to understand systems by placing small pieces of individual experience in a broader human context. Thorp argues that including human perspectives like art and literature can help address current shortcomings like a lack of user participation and respect for privacy in how big data is collected and represented.

2009 06 few
This document discusses the importance of data visualization and analysis. It contains summaries of research and ideas from experts in the field like Stephen Few, Colin Ware, Edward Tufte, and others. The key points are:
- Data visualization can help make sense of information and reveal patterns and insights that are difficult to see in raw data. It allows humans to leverage their highly visual perception abilities.
- Most organizations are not effectively analyzing the data they already have access to in order to improve business outcomes. Simple visualization techniques can help make meaningful insights more accessible.
- While technology has increased access to data, the focus needs to shift to understanding and communicating important and actionable insights from the data through visualization.
Sensory transformation
This document discusses the emergence of tools and practices to help people manage the growing amount of information and data. It describes how data visualization tools will play an important role, allowing people to interact with and find patterns in large datasets. These tools will include network diagrams, interactive visualizations that allow user comments and sharing, and visualizations created by foundations to communicate data to broad audiences. The document also notes that social filtering, ambient displays, agents and interfaces will be other important tools to help people cope with information overload in the coming decade.
Considering a Digital Future
The document discusses predictions for the digital future, focusing on the growing Internet of Things where everyday objects are connected to the internet and able to send and receive data.

Understanding Context for UX Strategy UXSTRAT 2015
1) The document discusses three themes for how context relates to UX strategy: environmental complexity, principles and facts, and framing and narrative. As environments become more complex with new digital technologies, UX strategy must address this complexity beyond just interfaces.
2) UX strategy requires understanding both the systemic principles behind human experience and behavior, as well as specific facts and realities. Projects often focus only on assumptions and theories without testing against real data.
3) Human context is shaped by how experiences are framed and narrated. Strategies need to regularly re-examine narratives to avoid "narrative debt" that obscures realities. Framing complexity with clarity is important, rather than just pursuing simplicity.

Statistics: Visualizing Data
Introductory Essay from the Locks
The Reality Today
All of us now are being blasted by information design. It's being poured into our eyes
through the Web, and we're all visualizers now; we're all demanding a visual aspect to
our information… And if you're navigating a dense information jungle, coming across
a beautiful graphic or a lovely data visualization, it's a relief, it's like coming across a
clearing in the jungle. –David McCandless
In today’s complex ‘information jungle,’ David McCandless observes that “Data is the new soil.”
McCandless, a data journalist and information designer, celebrates data as a ubiquitous resource
providing a fertile and creative medium from which new ideas and understanding can grow.
McCandless’s inspiration, statistician Hans Rosling, builds on this idea in his own TEDTalk with his
compelling image of flowers growing out of data/soil. These ‘flowers’ represent the many insights that
can be gleaned from effective visualization of data.
We’re just learning how to till this soil and make sense of the mountains of data constantly being
generated. As Gary King, Director of Harvard’s Institute for Quantitative Social Science says in his New
York Times article “The Age of Big Data”:
“It’s a revolution. We’re really just getting under way. But the march of quantification,
made possible by enormous new sources of data, will sweep through academia,
business and government. There is no area that is going to be untouched.”
How do we deal with all this data without getting information overload? How do we use data
to gain real insight into the world? Finding ways to pull interesting information out of data can
be very rewarding, both personally and professionally. The managing editor of Financial Times
observed on CNN’s Your Money: “The people who are able to in a sophisticated and practical
way analyze that data are going to have terrific jobs." Those who learn how to present data in
effective ways will be valuable in every field.

Many people, when they think of data, think of tables filled with numbers. But this long-held notion is
eroding. Today, we’re generating streams of data that are often too complex to be presented in a
simple “table.” In his TEDTalk, Blaise Aguera y Arcas explores images as data, while Deb Roy uses
audio, video, and the text messages in social media as data.
Some may also think that only a few specialized professionals can draw insights from data. When we
look at data in the right way, however, the results can be fun, insightful, even whimsical--and accessible
to everyone! Who knew, for example, that there are more relationship break-ups on Monday than on
any other day of the week, or that ...

Norman Lewis\'s presentation at eComm 2008
Young people are increasingly using digital technologies not just for communication but for self-expression. As devices continue to proliferate, the future will be about how people can connect and collaborate through networks, rather than focusing on owning individual devices. Shifting from "me" to "us" will be an important generational change.
Sheldon Renan's presentation at eComm 2008
The document discusses the concept of "netness", which refers to the emerging state of ubiquitous connectivity where lives and systems are increasingly interconnected. As connectivity becomes more prevalent, networks transform into fields and lives become more entangled. This shift represents a fourth state of connectivity beyond being loosely, closely or embedded connected. When all things can connect, safety, capability and opportunity increase, making connectivity vital for optimizing products, business models and governance. Moving forward, further study of connectivity's value and focus on pervasive networks is needed.
