1. Working out work : from personal informatics to redesigning work
Sammanfattning : "Personal Informatics" (PI) and "Quantified Self" (QS) are two contemporary notions in the field of Human–Computer Interaction. Such hardware and software systems gather personalized quantified data and visualize them for the purpose of supporting self-reflection. LÄS MER
2. Work rehabilitation. Instrument development and women's perceptions of an intervention
Sammanfattning : The overall aim of this thesis was to contribute to the development of new instruments for use in work rehabilitation contexts and to investigate whether clients’ perceptions of their work environment changed while participating in a work rehabilitation programme, as well as how they perceived the programme. The work rehabilitation in focus was the Redesigning Daily Occupations (ReDO) programme. LÄS MER
3. Airborne cognitive systems in search of an appropriate context: Studies of the introduction of new technology in aviation using a cognitive systems engineering approach
Sammanfattning : Abstract Technology is always designed for an assumed user in an assumed context. In commercial aviation, these design assumptions are clearly spelt out in that both crew and equipment are certificated for a specific operation as stated in the aircraft flight manual. LÄS MER
4. Design for Accessibility: The Development of Public Transport Vehicles with Regard to Mobility Impaired Passengers
Sammanfattning : The objective of this thesis is to show how a knowledge basis and requirements for vehicles, for the accommodation of mobility impaired people, can be worked out and specified through experimental studies with selected groups of subjects as well as how requirement specifications can be formulated for use in the development process of vehicles. The overall hypothesis underlying this thesis is that integrating the requirements of mobility impaired people in the normal development process of vehicles produces a superior vehicle compared to redesigning or modifying a complete vehicle.

5. Towards Realistic Visualisation of Production Systems
Sammanfattning : Redesigning a production system is a complex process for which numerous virtual tools are available to support the planning process. These virtual tools are used to forecast and analyse the production system prior to implementing the redesign, which makes it possible to identify and prevent costly problems during the planning process.
