Summary: We present a case study of designing the alarm management user experience
for patient monitoring devices in critical care units. Based on contextual
inquiry with critical care nurses, we developed novel design concepts that
re-imagined the user experience of patient monitoring devices to reduce alarm
fatigue. We conducted preliminary evaluations of the design concepts to examine
whether the new features would enable better alarm management. In this case
study, we highlight the design process and the lessons learnt.

Summary: In this paper we describe the process and technology behind a dance
performance, "Bodies/Antibodies," that will be presented at CHI 2010. This
performance is part of an ongoing Dance.
Draw project at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, which
investigates lightweight methods for integrating dance motion with interactive
visualizations and enhancing audience interaction with dance.

Summary: We developed a clinical decision support system (CDSS) -- Child Health
Improvement through Computer Automation (CHICA) -- to deliver patient specific
guidance at the point of clinical care. CHICA captures structured data from
families, physicians, and nursing, staff using a scannable paper user interface
-- Adaptive Turnaround Documents (ATD) while remaining sensitive to the
workflow constraints of a busy outpatient pediatric practice. The system was
deployed in November 2004 with an English language only user interface. In July
2005, we enhanced the user interface with a Spanish version of the
pre-screening questionnaire to capture information from Spanish speaking
families in our clinic. Subsequently, our results show an increase in rate of
family responses to the pre-screening questionnaire by 36% (51% vs. 87%) in a
four month time period before and after the Spanish interface deployment and up
to 32% (51% vs. 83%) since November 2004. Furthermore, our results show that
Spanish speaking families, on average, respond to the questionnaire more than
English speaking families (85% vs. 49%). This paper describes the design,
implementation challenges and our measure of success when trying to adapt a
computer scannable paper interface to another language.

Summary: ConversationBuilder is a collaborative open system which can be tailored to
support group activities in specialized domains of application. In particular
we are interested in supporting collaborative processes, i.e. those activities
performed by groups such that the actions of one individual in turn impacts the
possibilities for action of the other group members. The paper discusses the
concept of collaborative processes and the theoretical basis for
ConversationBuilder as well as outlining the architecture of the system and the
way it can be used to support such processes.
