6. BID
An interdisciplinary research/teaching program in design at Berkeley.
Planning a Ph.D. degree, and 2-year Masters
Affiliated with CITRIS
Spanning computer science, mechanical design and architectural design.

7. Design of Environments
Computing is expanding from workstations, to networks, to environments filled with devices which support human activity.

8. Design of Environments
BID takes an architectural approach. We start with the context, create design goals, then find best solutions.

10. BID Space 4000 sq ft in Hearst Mining Building
Ph.D. students occupying in F02

11. BID Update Kickoff meeting was on Feb 15th
15 BID AB members + 20 BID faculty
Strong support for the curriculum plan
Two AB members offered to pilot courses in academic year – drafted one new course
Web site is up –

12. UCB’s VDC (Virtual Development Center)
Sponsored by the Institute for Women in Technology
Incubates design projects chosen for and by women – synergistic with BID
“Innovation workshop,” UCB 1/26/02
Linked with CS160 last semester (James Landay)
Involved a community of non-technical women
Women with disabilities from “CTP”

13. BID Research
Design methods, especially for ubiquitous and context-aware computing environments.
Tools for designers:
Rapid and informal prototyping
Capturing and retrieving design knowledge
Design critics for manufacturability and performance

14. BID Research New materials and fabrication techniques:
Desktop mechatronics
Integration: Design in context involves:
Psychology, education theory, social theory, legal issues, public policy issues…

15. Academics 2-year Masters program – 30 students per year target.
Ph.D. program – 30 students located in BID space.
Graduate group (degree-granting unit) in design.
Piloting courses in Fall 2002.

16. CITRIS-Related HCI Research

17. Infrastructure for Context Awareness – James Landay
Increasing number of input channels into the computer
Pushing towards implicit acquisition of data
Creating better models
Pushing towards the physical and social
Using the input and models in useful ways
Automatically taking simple and predictable actions
Passing on the info to people to help make better decisions
Example Apps
Emergency response teams
Improved input for people with disabilities

18. Infrastructure for Context Awareness
Provide network-oriented set of abstractions, mechanisms, and programming model
Scalability
Scale to lots of people, places, things, and sensors
Scale to long periods of time, large geographic distances
Data-oriented and P2P, based on information spaces
Privacy
Tremendous source of valid criticism of ubicomp
Provide suite of privacy protection mechanisms
Base on Fair Information Practices and Information Asymmetry

19. Context-aware Decision Support for Emergency Response – James Landay
Coordinated decision-making under stress
offensive/defensive operations, search & rescue, resource planning
real time, opportunistic, high stake, high stress
breakdowns result in the loss of lives and property
Our Approach
distributed cognitive task model for decision-making under stress
identify major breakdowns & leverage points in decision-making process
context-aware decision support system for emergency response

20. IO group: Input and Output out of the box – Jennifer Mankoff, Anind Dey
Themes
Assistive Technology
Ubiquitous Computing
Commonalities
Share a need to support alternative Inputs and Outputs
Require new approaches to evaluation

21. IO research projects Ambient Nutrition Awareness
Ubicomp
Assistive Technology
Ambient
Awareness
Ambient Display design and evaluation
Nutrition
Community connections
End-user privacy support
Adaptation to changes in input devices (pen vs voice vs keyboard)
Context-aware word completion
Nutrition

22. User Interaction Design for Secure Systems - Marti Hearst
Security depends critically on information conveyed by the User Interface
Model a system in terms of
Actors
Actions
The Actor-Ability State
Identified 10 Key Design Principles
Illustrated with detailed case studies

24. Collaborative Filtering with Privacy - John Canny
Goal is to allow computation with privacy for ubicomp applications.
Developed a P2P protocol which allows aggregation preserving privacy – users can create their own groups.
Developed a new CF algorithm using the aggregate as a model.
The most accurate and fastest developed so far.
Applicable to other tasks like informal groups, expertise, etc…

25. LiveNotes – John Canny
LiveNotes supports small-group learning in normal lecture classrooms (5-7 students.)
Uses wirelessly-networked Pen computers.
P2P group communication for flexibility.
Two-tier system
Student to group
Student to instructor
Class to instructor
Distance learning
Remote students have local peers
