PERFORMATIVE EMERGENCY SIMULATION
SESSION CHAIR: Olav W. Bertelsen, Aarhus University, Denmark
ToCHI | The Team Coordination Game: Zero-Fidelity
Simulation Abstracted from Emergency Response
Practice
Zachary O. Toups, Texas Center for Applied Technology, USA
Andruid Kerne, William A. Hamilton, Texas A&M University, USA
Zero-fidelity simulation develops and invokes the principle of
abstraction, focusing on human-information and human-human
transfers of meaning, to derive design from work practice.
PAPER | “Act Natural”: Instructions, Compliance and
Accountability in Ambulatory Experiences
Peter Tolmie, Steve Benford, Martin Flintham, Patrick Brundell,
University of Nottingham, UK
Matt Adams, Nicholas Tandavantij, Ju Row Far, Blast Theory, UK
Gabriella Giannachi, The University of Exeter
This paper presents an ethnographic study of instruction
compliance in an ambulatory experience. Four levels of compliance
are uncovered of broad relevance to instruction design.
PAPER | Supporting Improvisation Work in Interorganizational
Crisis Management
Benedikt Ley, Volkmar Pipek, Christian Reuter,
Torben Wiedenhoefer, University of Siegen, Germany
We present an empirical study about the improvisation work during
medium to large power outages in Germany. We examined the
cooperation of firefighters, police, public administration, electricity
providers and citizens.
ToCHI | Supporting Knowledge Sharing and Activity
Awareness in Distributed Emergency Management
Planning: A Design Research Project
Gregorio Convertino, Xerox Research Center Europe, France
Helena Mentis, Microsoft Research, Cambridge, UK
Aleksandra Slavkovic, Mary Beth Rosson, John Carroll,
The Pennsylvania State University, USA
Design research project on knowledge sharing and activity
awareness in distributed emergency management planning.
Discusses how the designs enhanced aspects of distributed group
performance, in some respects beyond face-to-face groups.

THE TOOLS OF THE TRADE
SESSION CHAIR: Jennifer Thom-Santelli, IBM Research, USA
PAPER | A Hybrid Mass Participation Approach to
Mobile Software Trials
Alistair Morrison, Donald McMillan, University of Glasgow, UK
Stuart Reeves, University of Nottingham, UK
Scott Sherwood, Matthew Chalmers, University of Glasgow, UK
Describes methodology for combining simultaneous ‘app store’
style mobile software trial with local deployment. Allows for
explanation of observed behaviour, verification to prevent
misleading findings and more solid ethical practice.
PAPER | “Yours is Better!” Participant Response Bias in
HCI
Nicola Dell, University of Washington, USA
Vidya Vaidyanathan, San Jose State University, USA
Indrani Medhi, Edward Cutrell, William Thies, Microsoft Research
India, India
Interviewer demand characteristics can lead to serious
experimental biases in HCI. Our study in Bangalore, India shows
that researchers should expect significant response biases,
especially when interacting with underprivileged populations.
PAPER | Digital Pen and Paper Practices in
Observational Research
Nadir Weibel, Adam Fouse, Colleen Emmenegger, Whitney Friedman,
Edwin Hutchins, James Hollan, University of California, San Diego,
USA
We present digital pen and paper practices and their integration
with ChronoViz, documenting the co-evolution of notetaking and
system features as participants used the tool during an 18-month
field deployment.
PAPER | User See, User Point: Gaze and Cursor
Alignment in Web Search
Jeff Huang, University of Washington, USA
Ryen White, Microsoft Research, UK
Georg Buscher, Microsoft Bing, USA
Describes a lab study of alignment in eye-gaze and mouse cursor
positions in Web search. Studies when gaze and cursor are aligned,
and presents a model for predicting visual attention.
