Abstract

In this paper we describe our novel use of space syntax for the design and development of pervasive systems. Pervasive systems are computer systems that are designed to be “invisible” to users because they are designed to blend in with their environment and become part of the fabric of everyday life. Pervasive systems consist of fixed, mobile and embedded components, each of which may entail interactive capabilities and intelligence. Due to their close relationship with the build environment, pervasive systems are an ideal domain for adopting a space syntax methodology. The contribution of this paper is two-fold. First, we present an adaptation of the space syntax methodology aimed at researchers and designers of space and pervasive systems. By developing an adaptation of the space syntax methodology we intend for space syntax to be added the arsenal of tools and theories that researchers use to understand and design pervasive systems. To exemplify how this can be achieved, we present three case studies that demonstrate crucial ways in which space syntax analysis can aid the design of pervasive systems. The case studies presented here show how space syntax can be used in the development of pervasive system as an application development tool, as an exploratory tool, and as a modelling tool.
