研究表明,人们组织和思考他们的工作是为了追求某种总体目标而开展的活动,通常是与他人合作。然而,现代计算机系统通常是面向单用户的,也就是说,被设计为在坐在办公桌前时支持诸如文字处理的个人任务。本文提出了基于活动的计算(ABC)的概念,它旨在为人类活动提供计算支持。ABC方法旨在解决基于活动的计算支持医院的临床工作。在医院中,管理并行活动和中断所带来的挑战被放大,因为多任务处理现在与高度的移动性,协作和紧迫性相结合。本文介绍了基于活动的计算的经验和理论背景,它的原则,基于Java的实施ABC框架,并与一组医院临床医生的实验评估。这篇文章有助于支持人类活动,移动性,协作和上下文感知计算的日益增长的研究。ABC框架为基于活动的人机交互支持提供了一个统一的视角。
Studies have revealed that people organize and think of their work in terms of activities that are carried out in pursuit of some overall objective, often in collaboration with others. Nevertheless, modern computer systems are typically single-user oriented, that is, designed to support individual tasks such as word processing while sitting at a desk. This article presents the concept of Activity-Based Computing (ABC), which seeks to create computational support for human activities. The ABC approach has been designed to address activity-based computing support for clinical work in hospitals. In a hospital, the challenges arising from the management of parallel activities and interruptions are amplified because multitasking is now combined with a high degree of mobility, collaboration, and urgency. The article presents the empirical and theoretical background for activity-based computing, its principles, the Java-based implementation of the ABC Framework, and an experimental evaluation together with a group of hospital clinicians. The article contributes to the growing research on support for human activities, mobility, collaboration, and context-aware computing. The ABC Framework presents a unifying perspective on activity-based support for human-computer interaction.
