Sensor-Based Identification of Opportune Moments for Triggering Notifications
Publication Year: 2014, Page(s):22 - 29
Cited by: Papers (12)Today's smartphones will issue a notification immediately after an event occurs, repeating unanswered notifications in fixed time intervals. The disadvantage of this issue-and-repeat strategy is that notifications can appear in inconvenient situations and thus are perceived as annoying and interrupting. The authors study the mobile context as inferred through a phone's sensors for both answered an... View full abstract»

Monitoring Attention Using Ambient FM Radio Signals
Publication Year: 2014, Page(s):30 - 36
Cited by: Papers (10)The authors investigate the classification of FM radio signal fluctuation for monitoring the attention of individuals moving toward a static object. In particular, they distinguish between an empty and populated corridor and, for the latter, determine whether the individuals are moving or standing still and whether they're directing their attention toward a particular poster. This information can ... View full abstract»

The Clash between Privacy and Automation in Social Media
Publication Year: 2014, Page(s):56 - 63
Cited by: Papers (1)Classic research on human factors has found that automation never fully eliminates the human operator from the loop. Instead, it shifts the operator's responsibilities to the machine and changes the operator's control demands, sometimes with adverse consequences, called the "ironies of automation." In this article, the authors revisit the problem of automation in the era of social media, focusing ... View full abstract»
