Artifacts in the design process of pervasive computing
Workshop Artifacts in Design: Representation, Ideation, and Process. 28th ACM Conference on Human factors in Computing Systems (CHI 2010). Atlanta, GA, USA, April 10-15, 2010.

In this work we want to share and discuss our approach for designing new interfaces and applications for pervasive computing. We want to outline some of the tools we are currently using and investigating. Our research aim is to create usable tools that enrich the design process while inviting a broader audience to participate. The creation of artifacts with the appropriate fidelity in each phase of the user-centered design process is an essential task as it moves the concept in iterative steps forward to a satisfying and usable result.
