Hilda Tellio˘glu, Curriculum Vitae 10 approach called “open planning” to solve these problems was introduced. It was about enhancement of current solutions spaces, from both sides, by enabling openness in architectural design and production of elements for architecture. Architects delivered descriptions of their requirements, to achieve the quality they expected from their design. This information made producers of components the production of required systems easier where as they combined and re-used their elements to create new ones as expected by architects they cooperated. At the same time it was necessary to provide detailed information about the products available for architects. By means of a shared platform called “Manufaktur” the idea of open planning was implemented in form of a prototype. “The Digital Hospital” A Technology Assessment of Modern Telecommunication Technologies in Hospitals on Example of Danube Hospital (SMZO) in Vienna Type: A national research project (http:// media.tuwien.ac.at/index.php?id=61) January 1996–December 1996 Project team: Claudia Wild and Walter Peissl (Institute of Technology Assessment (ITA) at the Austrian Academy of Sciences (ÖAW)), Hilda Tellio˘glu (Vienna University of Technology) Funding: the Austrian Federal Ministry for Education, Arts and Culture (bm:bwk) and Wiener Krankenanstaltenverbund (KAV) Abstract: By means of ethnographic case studies, mainly in the Austrian Danube Hospital but also in Denmark and England, the use of PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System), RIS (Radiology Information System) and HIS (Hospital Information System) is assessed comparatively. Following aspects are studied in detail: variants of PACS, scaling and different concepts of PACS, technological infrastructure of PACS and its integration with RIS and HIS, tele-radiology in Austria, quality of health care with PACS, impacts of PACS on users and patients, economic factors around PACS, data security, privacy and legal issues. “Software Cultures” The Influence of Work Organization, Management Style and Occupational Culture on Systems Designers’ Approaches in a Cross-Cultural Perspective Type: An EU (COST A4) research project (http://media.tuwien.ac.at/index.php?id=62) May 1994–October 1995 Project team: Ina Wagner, Hilda Tellio˘glu Funding: The Federal Ministry of Science and Transport (bm:wv) Abstract: The aim of this project was to look into the work practices of software developers. In contrast to existing research on large software development projects, this study strongly focused on the workplace of the software developer from a sociology of work perspective. This workplace was embedded in a network of different actors with partially overlapping, partially incongruent interests, objectives, and interpretations. It required software developers to seek a balance between their own skills, practices, and identity; the resources and constraints they found in their work environment (in terms of financial resources, time, organizational structures, management styles, patterns of cooperation, etc.); the opportunities of establishing patterns of cooperation with significant other actors (end-users, management, etc). Tangible Interaction Novel interactive systems often combine digital representations with physical, real-world artifacts. Tangible interaction environments are designed to enable tangible manipulation, spatial interaction, embodied facilitation, and expressive representation, emphasizing the full dimension of technology interactions. Especially, material artifacts and their collaborative aspects, tokens, and the physical appearance of the interface take a key role in tangible interaction environments, like tangible user interfaces (TUI). TUIs offer new ways for users to manipulate data, to interact with computers and humans, and to cooperate with

The focus of this research field is to contribute with generic design knowledge for creating TUIs that afford rich user expressions, collaboration, and interactivity. Considering user participation, as an important asset to design, makes complex design processes more delicate. Ways of working with users need to be defined by learning about interaction modes, exploring the potential of tangibles, and providing participatory methodologies based on grounded theories and experiences. A project related to this research area is described in the following. “kommTUI” Object-based, Interactive Communication to Support Social Exchange of Older People Type: A national research project (http:// media.tuwien.ac.at/index.php?id=194) February 2010–January 2013 Project team: Hilda Tellio˘glu (Principle investigator), Wolfgang Spreicer, Lisa Ehrenstrasser Funding: The Austrian Research Promotion Agency (FFG), benefit Program (141.792 e) Abstract: The aim of this project is to design and develop a communication technology to support communication and social interaction of older people in a non-stigmatizing way. In recent years the technical development of computer systems and mobile devices went on quickly, but the interface with which these devices are operated, mostly remained unchanged. Classical input devices like mouse and keyboard or small mobile phone keyboards turned out to be a great challenge for the elderly. New technologies with innovative user interfaces can help to support communication and social interaction of the growing number of older people. In this project, creative design methods will be used to develop an innovative product in form of an executable prototype. The prototype will be tested and evaluated by potential users in real life situations in three iterations. The target group is older people who have little or no experience in the use of computers, the Internet, or mobile phones but want to use new, innovative technologies to maintain their interpersonal contacts. One focus of this project is to investigate whether communication systems with tangible user interfaces are more suitable and intuitive for older people and whether they can improve the application and acceptance of communication technologies by them. Based on the research on tangible user interfaces, user-centered design, and intuitive interaction, a communication system will be designed and developed. This system will be an executable and have following features: Display of availability of persons within the social environment (support of different modes like I see, I can be seen, not available, don’t disturb, am away, etc.) Establishment and maintenance of audio-visual communication between distributed places (manyto-many networking) Interactive exchange of information and media with tangible objects like photos, recipes, travel brochures, etc. It is very important to engage users in the design process and make use of their participation in the development of the technical environment. In this context, ethical issues will be considered throughout the whole development process. Computer Education The main focus in this area is on the research and establishment of innovative ways of teaching in computer science and business informatics. Curricula should reflect these issues and need to be adapted, when economic, technical, and cultural changes occur. Some examples of activities in this area are, among others, applying new technologies like Web 2.0 to encourage students to participate in the creation and documentation of teaching material, to discuss computing and networking related issues, to use IT to connect industries, research, and teaching. Curricula are developed and established, not only for academic (in the course of new development of Bachelor and Master Studies of Business Informatics at the Vienna University of Technology) but also for non-academic students (in telm@, a curriculum for unemployed women in Lower Austria). An important aspect considered in this field is gender. Besides lectures about
