New directions in information technology law: learning from human–computer interaction (2017)
Journal Article
Urquhart, L., & Rodden, T. (in press). New directions in information technology law: learning from human–computer interaction. International Review of Law, Computers and Technology, 31(2), https://doi.org/10.1080/13600869.2017.1298501

Effectively regulating the domestic Internet of Things (IoT) requires a turn to technology design. However, the role of designers as regulators still needs to be situated. By drawing on a specific domain of technology design, human–computer interacti... Read More about New directions in information technology law: learning from human–computer interaction.

In-the-loop or on-the-loop? Interactional arrangements to support team coordination with a planning agent (2017)
Journal Article
Fischer, J. E., Greenhalgh, C., Jiang, W., Ramchurn, S. D., Wu, F., & Rodden, T. (2017). In-the-loop or on-the-loop? Interactional arrangements to support team coordination with a planning agent. Concurrency and Computation: Practice and Experience, Article e4082. https://doi.org/10.1002/cpe.4082

In this paper we present the study of interactional arrangements that support the collaboration of headquarters (HQ), field responders and a computational planning agent in a time-critical task setting created by a mixed-reality game. Interactional a... Read More about In-the-loop or on-the-loop? Interactional arrangements to support team coordination with a planning agent.

A disaster response system based on human-agent collectives (2016)
Journal Article
Ramchurn, S. D., Huynh, T. D., Wu, F., Ikuno, Y., Flann, J., Moreau, L., …Jennings, N. R. (2016). A disaster response system based on human-agent collectives. Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research, 57, 661-708. https://doi.org/10.1613/jair.5098

Major natural or man-made disasters such as Hurricane Katrina or the 9/11 terror attacks pose significant challenges for emergency responders. First, they have to develop an understanding of the unfolding event either using their own resources or thr... Read More about A disaster response system based on human-agent collectives.

Tariff agent: interacting with a future smart energy system at home (2016)
Journal Article
