11. So what (a.k.a. why should we care)? “Whatever impact industrialization and urbanization may have had on nuclear families, they have not erased the social support functions” 10/27/2015 2:21 PM 11

12. So what (a.k.a. why should we care)?  30 million people with home networks  Design implications:  What are the current technological needs?  What motivates people to buy new technologies? 10/27/2015 2:21 PM 12

13. How are home networks viewed?  A/V networks are a place to “come together”  Multiple networks  Distinction between personal and work use  Being neighborly  Ownership  Computers, not A/V  Some specific to room  Digital housekeeping 10/27/2015 2:21 PM 13

14. How are home networks viewed? Gurus Consumers 10/27/2015 2:21 PM 14

15. How are home networks viewed? 10/27/2015 2:21 PM 15

16. How are home networks viewed? 10/27/2015 2:21 PM 16

17. How are home networks viewed?  Gurus  Have professional experience  Setup and maintenance of network  Use network conventions  Logical view  Consumers  Include furniture  Include routines of use  Merge infrastructure devices  Physical view 10/27/2015 2:21 PM 17

18. Trouble?  Umm.. Yeah. 10/27/2015 2:21 PM 18

19. Trouble?  Complexity  Mainly designed for professionals  Low level details 10/27/2015 2:21 PM 19

20. Trouble?  Coordination  Photographs  iPods  TiVo 10/27/2015 2:21 PM 20

21. Trouble? Invisibility 10/27/2015 2:21 PM 21

22. Trouble?  “Integration Paradox” IntegrationFlexibility 10/27/2015 2:21 PM 22

23. Trouble? 10/27/2015 2:21 PM 23

24. Trouble?  Legacy  External entities  Focus on visuals  30% return rate  One person’s responsibility 10/27/2015 2:21 PM 24

25. Design Implications  Organizational and spatial  Visualization  Evolution of network  Design for routines  Privacy and security  Self-healing  Possible protocol re-design  New interaction techniques  Legacy and transparency 10/27/2015 2:21 PM 25

26. Conclusion  Home networks encompass both social technological aspects  Many user experience problems  Partially due to consumer view of the network  Designs should consider space, routines and experience 10/27/2015 2:21 PM 26
