Full textTraditional 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 use quality with roots in socio-cultural theory, cognitive systems engineering, and architecture. The research approach was interpretative design cases. Observations, situated interviews, and workshops were conducted at a Swedish bank, and three interactive television appliances were designed and studied in simulated home environments. It is concluded that the use qualities to design for in infotainment services on interactive television are laidback interaction, togetherness among users, and entertainment. This is quite different from bank office software that usually is characterised by not only traditional usability criteria such as learnability, flexibility, effectiveness, efficiency, and satisfaction, but also professional face management and ante-use. Ante-use is the events and activities that precedes the actual use that will set the ground for whether the software will have quality in use or not. Furthermore, practices for how to work with use quality values, use quality objectives, and use quality criteria in the interaction design process are suggested. Finally, future research in design of software for several co-present users is proposed.

Full textThe study was designed to identify how home computers were being used by 200 selected home computer owners living in Richmond, Virginia. The 1984 study identified the expressed problems these owners experienced using home computers and determined what changes or information the owners believed were needed to use the computer more effectively.
The most commonly used home computer applications were personal word processing, entertainment, and work related word processing. Many home computer owners indicated that no factor had prevented them from using their computer. Those indicating that some factor had prevented their use, reported the high cost of software, the lack of useful software, and unclear or incorrect instructions presented problems.
Males were much more likely than females to be the principal computer user. Consistent with Rogers (1983) diffusion theory, most computer owners did use personal sources during their prepurchase information search.
Statistically significant differences existed between the owners satisfaction with hardware and the number of products and services used and between overall satisfaction and the amount spent on software. Significant inverse relationships indicated that those respondents who spent less on hardware and had less random access memory had higher levels of overall satisfaction than those who spent more on hardware and had more random access memory. Recommendations included methods of individualizing service and assistance for owners after the purchase.

Full textA review of the role of computers within the homebuilding industry is provided, including an historical overview of the use of CAD. The state of the art in CAD software applications is explored, with an assessment made of three low-cost software programs. Following a description of the existing design process in the homebuilding industry, a proposed system of user participation is outlined. A survey is taken of six builders in the Montreal and Ottawa regions to determine industry response to home buyer use of CAD as a design tool.
An analysis of the survey results reveals that although the builders are not currently participants in such a process, they are tentatively positive in their receptiveness to the idea of user-related CAD. The builders express many reservations concerning the available CAD systems, and they declare little interest in adopting the process as it presently exists. The relevant computer programs are found wanting, revealing a need for further development of both the software applications and the procedure for implementing CAD at the user participation level. Suggestions are offered for improvements in the process to the benefit of builder, designer, and end user.

Full textO conceito de casas inteligentes está cada vez mais em constante expansão e o número de objetos que temos em casa que estão conectados cresce exponencialmente. A tão chamada internet das coisas abrange cada vez mais dispositivos domésticos crescendo também a necessidade de os controlar. No entanto existem inúmeras plataformas que integram inúmeros protocolos e dispositivos, de inúmeras maneiras, muitas delas pouco intuitivas. Algo que transportamos sempre connosco são os nossos dispositivos móveis e com a evolução da tecnologia, estes vieram-se tornando cada vez mais potentes e munidos de variados sensores. Uma das portas para o mundo real nestes dispositivos é a câmara e as suas inúmeras potencialidades. Uma temática que tem vindo também a ganhar enorme relevância é a Inteligência Artificial e os algoritmos de Aprendizagem Máquina. Assim, com o processamento correto os dados recolhidos pelos sensores poderiam ser utilizados de maneira intuitiva para interagir com os tais dispositivos presentes em casa. Nesta dissertação é apresentado o protótipo de um sistema que integra os dispositivos móveis nas plataformas de automação de casas através da deteção de objetos na informação recolhida pela câmara dos mesmos, permitindo assim ao utilizador interagir com eles de forma intuitiva. A principal contribuição do trabalho desenvolvido é a integração não explorada até então, no contexto da automação de casas, de algoritmos de ponta capazes de superar facilmente os seres humanos na análise e processamento de dados adquiridos pelos nossos dispositivos móveis. Ao longo da dissertação são explorados os conceitos referidos, bem como a potencialidade dessa integração e os resultados obtidos.
