Ethical Concerns and Perceptions of Consumer Neurotechnology from Lived Experiences of Mental Workload Tracking (2022)
Conference Proceeding
Midha, S., Wilson, M. L., & Sharples, S. (2022). Ethical Concerns and Perceptions of Consumer Neurotechnology from Lived Experiences of Mental Workload Tracking. In FAccT '22: 2022 ACM Conference on Fairness, Accountability, and Transparency (564-573). https://doi.org/10.1145/3531146.3533119

With rapid growth in the development of consumer neurotechnology, it is imperative to consider the ethical implications that this might have in order to minimise consumer harm. Whilst ethical and legal guidelines for commercialisation have previously...

Lived Experiences of Mental Workload in Everyday Life (2022)
Conference Proceeding
Midha, S., Wilson, M. L., & Sharples, S. (2022). Lived Experiences of Mental Workload in Everyday Life. In CHI '22 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (1-16). https://doi.org/10.1145/3491102.3517690

We can now buy consumer brain-computer interface devices to help us meditate and focus, but what are we aiming to achieve? Mental workload (MWL) is an established concept, and as a form of personal data could be useful for making positive life change...

Mediated Visits: Longitudinal Domestic Dwelling with Mobile Robotic Telepresence (2022)
Conference Proceeding
Boudouraki, A., Reeves, S., Fischer, J. E., & Rintel, S. (2022). Mediated Visits: Longitudinal Domestic Dwelling with Mobile Robotic Telepresence. . https://doi.org/10.1145/3491102.3517640

Mobile Robotic Telepresence (MRP) systems are remotely controlled, mobile videoconferencing devices that allow the remote user to move independently and have a physical presence in the environment. This paper presents a longitudinal study of MRP use... Read More about Mediated Visits: Longitudinal Domestic Dwelling with Mobile Robotic Telepresence.

The Meaning in "the Mix": Using Ethnography to Inform the Design of Intelligent Tools in the Context of Music Production (2021)
Conference Proceeding
McGarry, G., Chamberlain, A., Crabtree, A., & Greenhalgh, C. (2021). The Meaning in "the Mix": Using Ethnography to Inform the Design of Intelligent Tools in the Context of Music Production. In AM '21: Audio Mostly 2021 (40-47). https://doi.org/10.1145/3478384.3478406

In this paper we report on two ethnographic studies of professional music producers at work in their respective studio settings, to underpin the design of intelligent tools and platforms in this domain. The studies are part of a body of work that exp... Read More about The Meaning in "the Mix": Using Ethnography to Inform the Design of Intelligent Tools in the Context of Music Production.

Connecting Constructive Notions of Ordinals in Homotopy Type Theory (2021)
Conference Proceeding
Kraus, N., Nordvall Forsberg, F., & Xu, C. (2021). Connecting Constructive Notions of Ordinals in Homotopy Type Theory.

In classical set theory, there are many equivalent ways to introduce ordinals. In a constructive setting, however, the different notions split apart, with different advantages and disadvantages for each. We consider three different notions of ordinal...

The global pandemic has driven musicians online. We report an ethnographic account of how two traditional folk clubs with little previous interest in digital platforms transitioned to online experiences. They followed very different approaches: one a... Read More about Producing Liveness: The Trials of Moving Folk Clubs Online During the Global Pandemic.

Software Fault Localisation via Probabilistic Modelling (2020)
Conference Proceeding
Johnson, C. (2020). Software Fault Localisation via Probabilistic Modelling. In Artificial Intelligence XXXVII: 40th SGAI International Conference on Artificial Intelligence, AI 2020, Cambridge, UK, December 15–17, 2020: Proceedings (259-272). https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-63799-6_20

Software development is a complex activity requiring intelligent action. This paper explores the use of an AI technique for one step in software development, viz. detecting the location of a fault in a program. A measure of program progress is propos...
