Designing smart artifacts for adaptive mediation of social viscosity: Triadic actor-network enactments as a basis for interaction design
(Illinois Institute of Technology, 2012-12-01) Salamanca, Juan
With the advent o f ubiquitous com puting, interaction design has broadened its object o f inquiry into how smart com putational artifacts inconspicuously act in people's everyday lives. A lthough user-centered design approaches rem ain useful for exploring how people cope w ith interactive systems, they cannot explain how this new breed of artifacts participates in people's sociality. U ser-centered design approaches assum e that humans control interactive systems, disregarding the agency o f smart artifacts
Platoon-based cyclists cooperative system
(IEEE, 2015-12-16) Salamanca, Juan
Bicycle use has steadily risen its share of total urban traffic over the last decade. This has been the result of city governments promotion of alternative forms of transportation, in the search for finding strategies that help reduce traffic congestion. Although benefits of cycling in congestion and pollution are concrete, in several cities the increment of cyclists has gotten to the point to overflow the infrastructure, deriving in safety risks and gridlocks due to the lack of explicit coordination among cyclists. This paper presents the integration of two strategies that so far have been considered completely independent: cooperative driving and cycling. Our project addresses the coordination of collective behavior of platoons of cyclists that could pervade dedicated express roads such as the London's 18 mile East-West Cycle Superhighway. The proposed platoon-based cyclists cooperative system can be defined as a networked cyber-physical system with an additional challenge related to the human factor.
