Researchers have explored the design of ambient information systems across a wide range of physical and screen-based media. This work has yielded rich examples of design approache...
This paper addresses two problems: “What are the appropriate methods for evaluating information systems?” and “How do we measure the impact of ambient information systems?...

Mobile devices make ideal personal ambient information systems given their ubiquitous adoption by users and their rich context knowledge of users’ activity. However, we believe ...
We take two paradigms for information systems development, functionalism and social relativism, and apply their assumptions to the evaluation of ambient information systems. Ambie...
We propose a set of design dimensions that constitute the axes of a taxonomy for ambient information systems. The dimensions are based on an investigation of a wide range of resea...

In this paper, we begin by laying out our motivation for exploring methods of evaluating Ambient Information Systems, with a strong push toward in-situ studies. Next, we describe ...
