Mobility is the Message: Experiments with Mobile Media Sharing
This thesis explores new mobile media sharing applications by building, deploying, and studying their use. While we share media in many different ways both on the web and on mobile phones, there are few ways of sharing media with people physically near us. Studied were three designed and built systems: Push!Music, Columbus, and Portrait Catalog, as well as a fourth commercially available system â Foursquare. This thesis offers four contributions: First, it explores the design space of co-present media sharing of four test systems. Second, through user studies of these systems it reports on how these come to be used. Third, it explores new ways of conducting trials as the technical mobile landscape has changed. Last, we look at how the technical solutions demonstrate different lines of thinking from how similar solutions might look today.
Through a Human-Computer Interaction methodology of design, build, and study, we look at systems through the eyes of embodied interaction and examine how the systems come to be in use. Using Goffmanâs understanding of social order, we see how these mobile media sharing systems allow people to actively present themselves through these media. In turn, using McLuhanâs way of understanding media, we reflect on how these new systems enable a new type of medium distinct from the web centric media, and how this relates directly to mobility.
While media sharing is something that takes place everywhere in western society, it is still tied to the way media is shared through computers. Although often mobile, they do not consider the mobile settings. The systems in this thesis treat mobility as an opportunity for design. It is still left to see how this mobile media sharing will come to present itself in peopleâs everyday life, and when it does, how we will come to understand it and how it will transform society as a medium distinct from those before. This thesis gives a glimpse at what this future will look like
Sideffect GamePlan: Development of an alcohol and other drug serious game for high school students using a systematic and iterative user-centred game development framework
Serious games have shown to be effective in improving motivation to learn, knowledge and retention, thus are being increasingly used for alcohol and other drug (AOD) education. This paper outlines the development of an online AOD serious game for in-class use by Australian secondary school teachers for students in Years 9â10. Adapted from Edwards et al. (2018), the seven-step systematic and iterative user-centred development framework included: (1) Forming an expert multidisciplinary design team, (2) Defining the problem and establishing user preferences, (3) Incorporating the evidence base, (4) Serious game design, (5) Incorporating behavioural and psychological theory, (6) Developing a logic model and investigating causal pathways, and (7) User testing. High school students (n = 8), health and physical education teachers (n = 7), and parents (n = 8) were engaged throughout different stages of the development process to inform development and provide feedback on considerations for promoting engagement, acceptability, and usability of the game amongst both students and teachers. Overall, participants rated game acceptability and usability favourably and would recommend the game for learning about AOD. Constructive feedback and suggestions for improvements from user testing sessions were implemented to form the final version of the game and module. The next step is to test Sideffect GamePlan in a simulated classroom environment before piloting in school settings

Critical elements underpinning the emergence of the medical game ecosystem: gamifying traumatic brain injury rehabilitation in Finland
The healthcare sector is currently in the verge of a reform and thus, the medical game research provide an interesting area of research. The aim of this study is to explore the critical elements underpinning the emergence of the medical game ecosystem with three sub-objectives: (1) to seek who are the key actors involved in the medical game ecosystem and identify their needs, (2) to scrutinise what types of resources are required in medical game development and what types of relationships are needed to secure those resources, and (3) to identify the existing institutions (âthe rules of the gameâ) affecting the emergence of the medical game ecosystem.
The theoretical background consists of service ecosystems literature. The empirical study conducted is based on the semi-structured theme interviews of 25 experts in three relevant fields: games and technology, health and funding. The data was analysed through a theoretical framework that was designed based upon service ecosystems literature. The study proposes that the key actors are divided into five groups: medical game companies, customers, funders, regulatory parties and complementors. Their needs are linked to improving patient motivation and enhancing the healthcare processes resulting in lower costs. Several types of resources, especially skills and knowledge, are required to create a medical game. To gain access to those resources, medical game companies need to build complex networks of relationships. Proficiency in managing those value networks is crucial. In addition, the company should take into account the underlying institutions in the healthcare sector affecting the medical game ecosystem. Three crucial institutions were identified: validation, lack of innovation supporting structures in healthcare and the rising consumerisation.
Based on the findings, medical games cannot be made in isolation. A developmental trajectory model of the emerging medical game ecosystem was created based on the empirical data. The relevancy of relationships and resources is dependent on the trajectory that the medical game company at that time resides. Furthermore, creating an official and documented database for clinically valdated medical games was proposed to establish the medical game market and ensure an adequate status for the effective medical games. Finally, ecosystems approach provides interesting future opportunities for research on medical game ecosystems.Terveydenhoitoala on reformaation partaalla tehden lÀÀkepelitutkimuksesta ajankohtaisen ja kiinnostavan tutkimuskohteen. TÀmÀ tutkimus kÀsittelee lÀÀkepeliekosysteemin syntymiseen vaikuttavia kriittisiÀ elementtejÀ kolmen osakysymyksen avulla: (1) ketkÀ ovat lÀÀkepeliekosysteemin avaintoimijat ja minkÀlaisia tarpeita heillÀ on, (2) millaisia resursseja lÀÀkepelien kehittÀmiseen tarvitaan ja millaisia suhteita tulee luoda pÀÀstÀkseen kÀsiksi kyseisiin resursseihin sekÀ (3) millaiset instituutiot (ns. pelisÀÀnnöt) vaikuttavat lÀÀkepeliekosysteemin syntyyn. Tutkielma keskittyy erityisesti lÀÀkepelien kÀyttöön aivovammakuntoutuksessa Suomen markkinoilla.
Tutkielman teoreettinen tausta koostuu palveluekosysteemikirjallisuudesta. Empiirinen osuus muodostui 25 semi-strukturoidusta teemahaastattelusta. Haastateltavat valittiin kolmen keskeisen asiantuntijuuden perusteella: pelit ja teknologia, terveys ja rahoitus. Aineisto analysoitiin palveluekosysteemikirjallisuuden pohjalta luodun teoreettisen mallin avulla. Tutkielmassa avaintoimijat jaettiin viiteen ryhmÀÀn: lÀÀkepeliyritykset, asiakkaat, rahoittajat, regulatiiviset toimijat ja tÀydentÀvÀt toimijat. HeidÀn tarpeensa olivat vahvasti sidoksissa potilaiden motivaation ja sitÀ kautta terveydenhuollon prosessien tehostamiseen. TÀmÀ puolestaan laskee terveydenhuollon kustannuksia. LÀÀkepelien kehittÀminen vaatii useita resursseja, erityisesti dynaamisia ja aineettomia resursseja, kuten taitoja ja tietoa. PÀÀstÀkseen kÀsiksi nÀihin kriittisiin resursseihin lÀÀkepeliyrityksen tulee kyetÀ luomaan ja hallitsemaan monimutkaisia suhdeverkostoja. Verkostojen taidokas johtaminen on vahvasti kytköksissÀ yrityksen menestykseen. LisÀksi yrityksen tulee tunnistaa lÀÀkepeliekosysteemin taustalla vaikuttavat instituutiot ja niiden vaikutukset lÀÀkepeliekosysteemiin. Tutkielmassa kÀsitellÀÀn kolmea kriittistÀ terveydenhuollon instituutiota: validointikÀytÀntöjÀ, terveydenhuollon innovaatiorakenteiden puutosta sekÀ nousevaa kuluttajistumista.
Tulosten perusteella lÀÀkepelejÀ ei voi kehittÀÀ eristyksissÀ yrityksen suhdeverkostosta. Empirian pohjalta luotu malli lÀÀkepeliekosysteemin kehityskaaresta korostaa, ettÀ vaadittavat resurssit ja suhteet ovat riippuvaisia siitÀ, missÀ vaiheessa ekosysteemin kehitystÀ lÀÀkepeliyritys kulloinkin on. Vahvistaakseen lÀÀkepelimarkkinoita ja taatakseen peleille vaadittavan statuksen, tulisi kehittÀÀ virallinen dokumentoitu validointijÀrjestelmÀ lÀÀkepeleille. LisÀksi palveluekosysteeminÀkökulma tarjoaa kiinnostavia jatkotutkimusmahdollisuuksia lÀÀkepelitutkimukselle.siirretty Doriast

Proceedings of the 1st international workshop on software process education, training and professionalism (SPETP 2015)
These Proceedings contain the papers accepted for publication and presentation at the first 1st International Workshop on Software Process Education, Training and Professionalism (SPETP 2015) held in conjunction with the 15th International Conference on Software Process Improvement and Capability dEtermination (SPICE 2015), Gothenburg, Sweden, during June 15-17, 2015.
During the 14th International Conference on Software Process Improvement and Capability dEtermination (SPICE 2014) held in Vilnius, Lithuania, at a post conference dinner, a group of key individuals from education and industry started to discuss the challenges faced for software process education, training and professionalism, especially with the background of the new modes of learning and teaching in higher education.
Further discussions held post conference with key players in the relevant professional and personal certification fields led to a consensus that it is time for the industry to rise to the new challenges and set out in a manifesto a common vision for educators and trainers together with a set of recommendations to address the challenges faced. It was therefore agreed co-located the 1st International Workshop on Software Process Education, Training and Professionalism with the 15th International Conference on Software Process Improvement and Capability dEtermination.
This workshop focused on the new challenges for and best practices in software process education, training and professionalism. The foundation for learning of software process should be part of a university or college education however software process is often treated as âadd oneâ module to the core curriculum. In a professional context, whilst there have been a number of initiatives focused on the certification related to the software process professional these have had little success for numerous reasons.
Cooperation in education between industry, academia and professional bodies is paramount, together with the recognition of how the education world is changing and how education is resourced, delivered (with online and open learning) and taken up. Over the next 10 years on-line learning is projected to grow fifteen fold, accounting for 30% of all education provision, according to the recent report to the European Commission on New modes of learning and teaching in higher education.
It is a great pleasure to see the varied contributions to this 1st International Workshop on Software Process Education, Training and Professionalism and we hope that our joint dedication, passion and innovation will lead to success for the profession through the publication of the manifesto as a key outcome from the workshop.
On behalf of the SPETP 2015 conference Organizing Committee, we would like to thank all participants. Firstly all the authors, whose quality work is the essence of the conference, and the members of the Program Committee, who helped us with their expertise and diligence in reviewing all of the submissions. As we all know, organizing a conference requires the effort of many individuals. We wish to thank also all the members of our Organizing Committee, whose work and commitment were invaluable
Machines like us? An occupational health perspective on machine learning (artificial intelligence)
Summary
Aim
Focusing on management theories and occupational health and safety (OSH) principles, the use of machine learning (AI) may give benefits within risk management, economical costs, as well as prevent sickness absence and work-related illness. The purpose of this thesis was to develop an industry standard in the form of concrete advice for management and OSH services on how to avoid sickness absence related to the introduction and application of machine learning (AI).
Method
This thesis is a literature-based monography set in the Norwegian work-life context. An explorative, qualitative research design was chosen with a phenomenological approach. Three main theoretical perspectives were explored, namely the psychological, sociological and cognitive perspectives. In addition, a literature review was performed, and white spots on the theoretical map were defined. This set the theoretical framework for the empirical part of the study, consisting of two focus group interviews from two of Norwayâs largest companies. Both companies were data driven and front runners in their fields and were chosen from a vendor (Kongsberg) and buyer (Equinor) perspective. This data was then triangulated against an in-depth interview from SINTEF, one of Europeâs largest research institutes. For external validity, thick description was added.
Limitations may be the sample size in data collection and bias due to the companies chosen. Additionally, there may be researcherâs bias as a company doctor and leading advisor of a multi-disciplinary occupational health team for one of the companies interviewed. Contributions to state-of-the-art To the researcherâs knowledge, this may be the first study of its kind where international OSH advice and research findings from review articles (and a workshop summary) is combined with experience transfer from managers and employees in this phase of machine learning (AI).
Findings show that to prevent machine learning (AI) related sickness absence, the decision makers will need to acquire related OSH competence, perform dynamic virtual task analyses and from the outset integrate OSH measures in early phase developments of machine learning (AI) by utilizing human centered design. The OSH services will need to work more cross-disciplinary again, develop one common language based on Human Factors and perform dynamic evaluations of occupational health risk. The tripartite dialogue with the safety delegates will need to be strengthened with the same competence
