对Ubicomp的研究关注的是实现一个最有用的Ubicomp应用程序可以构建并且使用愉快的未来。但是什么是有用的呢？什么是可用的？人们真正需要什么？这些问题才刚刚开始得到部分回答，因为Ubicomp系统更加复杂。邪教比评估桌面应用程序。这迪!culty是由于规模和倾向于将ubiccomp应用于持续的日常生活环境等问题，而不像面向任务和工作的桌面系统。本文介绍了三个Ubicomp系统的案例研究，在其设计的多个阶段进行了评估。在每种情况下，我们都描述了应用和评估。然后，我们介绍了一组关于我们所使用的评估技术的经验教训。我们的目标是更好地理解Ubicomp领域的评估技术需要如何发展。
The study of Ubicomp is concerned with enabling a future in which the most useful Ubicomp applications are feasible to build and pleasing to use. But what is useful? What is usable? What do people actually need? These questions are only beginning to be answered partly because Ubicomp systems more di! cult to evaluate than desktop applications. This di! culty is due to issues like scale and a tendency to apply Ubicomp in ongoing, daily life settings unlike task and work oriented desktop systems. This paper presents a case study of three Ubicomp systems that were evaluated at multiple stages of their design. In each case, we describe the application and evaluation. We then present a set of lessons that we learned regarding the evaluation techniques we used. Our goal is to better understand how evaluation techniques need to evolve for the Ubicomp domain.
