"More Than a cliché": Experiencing Hybrid Gifting in the Wild (2023)
Journal Article
Spence, J., Koleva, B., Benford, S., Darzentas, D., Flintham, M., Glover, K., …Thorn, E. C. (2023). "More Than a cliché": Experiencing Hybrid Gifting in the Wild. ACM Transactions on Computer-Human Interaction, 30(4), Article 55. https://doi.org/10.1145/3577015

Gifting is socially and economically important. Studies of gifting physical objects have revealed motivations, values, and the tensions between them, while HCI research has revealed weaknesses of digital gifting and explored possibilities of hybrid g...

Ion channel model reduction using manifold boundaries (2022)
Journal Article
Whittaker, D. G., Wang, J., Shuttleworth, J., Venkateshappa, R., Kemp, J. M., Claydon, T. W., & Mirams, G. R. (2022). Ion channel model reduction using manifold boundaries. Journal of the Royal Society, Interface, 19(193), Article 20220193. https://doi.org/10.1098/rsif.2022.0193

Mathematical models of voltage-gated ion channels are used in basic research, industrial and clinical settings. These models range in complexity, but typically contain numerous variables representing the proportion of channels in a given state, and p...

New Directions for the IoT: Automate, Share, Build, and Care (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Fuentes, C., Porcheron, M., Fischer, J. E., Costanza, E., Verdezoto, N., Herskovic, V., …Takayama, L. (2019). New Directions for the IoT: Automate, Share, Build, and Care. In Proceedings of the 2019 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems. https://doi.org/10.1145/3290607.3299000

As the IoT is taking hold in the home, in healthcare, factories, and industry, new challenges and approaches arise for HCI research and design. For example, HCI is exploring agency delegation and automation to support the user in managing the deluge... Read More about New Directions for the IoT: Automate, Share, Build, and Care.

Via sensors carried by people and sensors embedded in the environment, personal data is being processed to try to understand activity patterns and people{\textquoteright}s internal states in the context of human-building interaction. This data is use... Read More about Adaptive Architecture and Personal Data.

Identifying Heavy Goods Vehicle Driving Styles in the United Kingdom (2018)
Journal Article
Figueredo, G. P., Agrawal, U., Mase, J., Mesgarpour, M., Wagner, C., Soria, D., …John, R. (2019). Identifying Heavy Goods Vehicle Driving Styles in the United Kingdom. IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems, 20(9), 3324-3336. https://doi.org/10.1109/TITS.2018.2875343

Although driving behaviour has been largely studied amongst private motor vehicles drivers, the literature addressing heavy goods vehicle (HGV) drivers is scarce. Identifying the existing groups of driving stereotypes and their proportions enables re... Read More about Identifying Heavy Goods Vehicle Driving Styles in the United Kingdom.

The Rough Mile: a Design Template for Locative Audio Experiences (2018)
Journal Article
Hazzard, A., Spence, J., Greenhalgh, C., & McGrath, S. (2018). The Rough Mile: a Design Template for Locative Audio Experiences. Journal of the Audio Engineering Society, 66(4), 231-240. https://doi.org/10.17743/jaes.2018.0013

The rapid development of mobile devices, networks, and sensors over the past 20 years has expanded the range of listening experiences such that they are not constrained to homes, cars, workplaces, cinemas, and concert halls. Locative or mobile listen... Read More about The Rough Mile: a Design Template for Locative Audio Experiences.
