ABSTRACT
Designing mobile and wearable applications is a challenge. The context of use is more important than ever and traditional methodologies for elicitation and specification reach their limits. This paper investigates the challenge of creating and communicating information about the user's primary task with regards to its fine grained temporal structure. TaskObserver is a TabletPC software that allows real-time logging of events during observations of complex mobile scenarios. The results are communicated to other team members using task trace graphs of the events observed.

Prototyping retractable string-based interaction techniques for dual-display mobile devices
CHI '06: Proceedings of the SIGCHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing SystemsAccessing information on mobile and wearable devices often requires the user's visual attention, and the precise operation of virtual or physical widgets. However, these interactions may sometimes be too time-consuming and socially inappropriate. To ...
Personal customisation of mobile phones: a case study
NordiCHI '06: Proceedings of the 4th Nordic conference on Human-computer interaction: changing rolesMobile phones are highly personal, customisable mobile computing devices that allow users to precisely control how they interact with the device and their environment. This paper examines the process of customisation and seeks to identify how this ...
