Abstract

This chapter introduces a formal model based on set theory and relations to manage interruptions across different life domains in teamwork. By integrating principles from boundary management, the model specifies essential concepts such as persons, domains, availability, interruptions, and notifications. The model aims to clarify when and how notifications should be presented to minimize disruptions, particularly those unrelated to the user’s current task domain. The formal approach ensures precision and clarity in the early stages of system design, making it a valuable tool for developers and researchers in the field of human-computer interaction and cooperative systems.
