Conference Proceeding
Mortier, R., Zhao, J., Crowcroft, J., Wang, L., Qi, L., Haddadi, H., …Greenhalgh, C. (2016). Personal data management with the Databox: What’s inside the box?. In CAN 2016 - Proceedings of the 2016 ACM Workshop on Cloud-Assisted Networking (49-54). https://doi.org/10.1145/3010079.3010082

We are all increasingly the subjects of data collection and processing systems that use data generated both about and by us to provide and optimise a wide range of services. Means for others to collect and process data that concerns each of us – ofte... Read More about Personal data management with the Databox: What’s inside the box?.

“Just whack it on until it gets hot”: working with IoT data in the home (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Fischer, J. E., Crabtree, A., Rodden, T., Colley, J. A., Costanza, E., Jewell, M. O., & Ramchurn, S. D. (2016). “Just whack it on until it gets hot”: working with IoT data in the home.

This paper presents findings from a co-design project that aims to augment the practices of professional energy advisors with environmental data from sensors deployed in clients’ homes. Premised on prior ethnographic observations we prototyped a sens... Read More about “Just whack it on until it gets hot”: working with IoT data in the home.
