    Sammanfattning : How well can we explain natural occurrences of cognitive behaviours given the theoretical frameworks available to us today?

    Sammanfattning : The prospect of ubiquitous computing in everyday life urges us to raise basic design issues pertaining to how we will live with, and not only use, computers. To design for everyday life involves much more than enabling people to accomplish certain tasks more effectively, and therefore, traditional approaches to human-computer interaction that focus on usability are not sufïcient.
