摘要：一些关于日记和日程安排系统的研究考虑了个人如何使用日记，并提出了对计算机时间管理工具的要求。其他人则关注于小组调度系统成功的标准。很少有人关注人们是如何将一系列工具作为一个整体来使用的。这个访谈研究报告了用户如何利用纸张、个人数字助理（pda）和小组调度系统进行时间管理。与早期的研究一样，我们发现了不同技术的许多缺点，但研究整体而不是单个工具指向了不同的结论：我们的目标不是生产取代现有纸质工具的电子时间管理工具，我们应该致力于了解每种技术的相对优势和劣势，并寻求工具之间更无缝的集成。特别是，对日程安排的要求和对响应更迅速、更灵活的时间管理的要求以需要不同类型支持的方式发生冲突。
Abstract: Some studies of diaries and scheduling systems have considered how individuals use diaries with a view to proposing requirements for computerised time management tools. Others have focused on the criteria for success of group scheduling systems. Few have paid attention to how people use a battery of tools as an ensemble. This interview study reports how users exploit paper, personal digital assistants (PDAs) and a group scheduling system for their time management. As with earlier studies, we find many shortcomings of different technologies, but studying the ensemble rather than individual tools points towards a different conclusion: rather than aiming towards producing electronic time management tools that replace existing paper-based tools, we should be aiming to understand the relative strengths and weaknesses of each technology and look towards more seamless integration between tools. In particular, the requirements for scheduling and those for more responsive, fluid time management conflict in ways that demand different kinds of support.
