ABSTRACT
Context-aware computing sets new challenges for interaction design. This paper introduces the special characteristics of context-aware mobile devices that should be taken into account in interaction and user interface design, and proposes design guidelines for context-aware mobile applications. The proposed guidelines are evaluated with two design exercises.

Guidelines for Error Message Design
The presented study aims to develop a set of guidelines for error message design. A large amount of research is available in the literature on the topic of warning design. The same is not true for error messages. Although some research exists, the ...
Participatory Evaluation of Human-Data Interaction Design Guidelines
Human-Computer Interaction – INTERACT 2019AbstractThe design of visual analytics tools for facilitating human-data interaction (HDI) plays a key role to help people identifying useful knowledge from large masses of data. Designing data visualization based on guidelines is relevant. However, it is ...
