CONTEXT INTERNET OF THINGS SERVICES

SERVICES

DESKTOP-BASED TO MONITOR OBJECTS Social networks of things, smart metering and life logging tools, inventory and goods tracking systems…

ENVIRONMENT-BASED TO ORCHESTRATE OBJECTS Automation and assisted living systems, reconfigurations for ambience sharing or communication purposes, personalization of content delivery according to social preferences and presence…

OBJECT-BASED TO AUGMENT OBJECTS Adding a social dimension, enhancing awareness with open data, suggesting short interactions with Web services, facilitating data circulation among objects…

AUGMENTED OBJECTS THE ISSUE OF COMPREHENSIBILITY...

EXTERNAL LEGIBILITY a property of user interfaces that affects the ability of non-participating observers to understand the context of a user's actions. J. B. Zigelbaum, « Mending fractured spaces : external legibility and seamlessness in interface design », 2008. [Online]. Available: http://dspace.mit.edu/handle/1721.1/46586.

SCRUTABILITY the ability of a user to interrogate her user model in order to understand the system’s behaviour. K. Cheverst, H. E. Byun, D. Fitton, C. Sas, C. Kray, et N. Villar, « Exploring issues of user model transparency and proactive behaviour in an office environment control system », User Modeling and User-Adapted Interaction, vol. 15, no. 3, p. 235–273, 2005.

INTELLIGIBILITY characteristic of systems that seek to act upon what they infer about the context must be able to represent to their users what they know, how they know it, and what they are doing about it. V. Bellotti et K. Edwards, « Intelligibility and accountability: human considerations in context-aware systems », Human-Computer Interaction, vol. 16, no. 2-4, p. 193–212, 2001.

AUGMENTED OBJECTS … AND CONTROLLABILITY

J. Coutaz, « Meta-user interfaces for ambient spaces », Task Models and Diagrams for Users Interface Design, p. 1–15, 2007.

observability, where users can evaluate the state of the system at a certain point in time

traceability, where users can trace what is going during a certain period (e.g., the event flow)

controllability, where users can trace, observe and intervene.
