Value Sensitive Design is an emerging approach to information and computer system design that seeks to account for human values in a principled and comprehensive manner throughout the design process. The purpose of this project is to extend and validate Value Sensitive Design on a large scale. Value Sensitive Design will be applied across five research strands: (1) personal robots in human lives; (2) plasma display technologies; (3) children and information systems; (4) large-scale computer simulation for urban environments ("UrbanSim"); and (5) industry contexts, specifically, Sun Microsystems, Microsoft, and Openwave. Along with stand-alone scientific contributions within each strand, the research will address the following hard but tractable problems for integrating values into the design of information and computer systems: handling diverse values, including privacy, intellectual property, civil rights, security, accessibility, physical health, freedom from bias, and trust; handling diverse populations and technologies; accounting for cultural diversity; developing an integrative and iterative methodology; adapting to an industry context; providing evaluation metrics; and providing means to transfer the methodology to others in academia and industry. This project aims to shape the IT design and development process such that the next generation of IT can pervasively enhance human lives, on the individual and societal level.

价值敏感设计是一种新兴的信息和计算机系统设计方法，旨在在整个设计过程中以原则和全面的方式考虑人类价值。 这个项目的目的是大规模地扩展和验证价值敏感设计。 价值敏感设计将应用于五个研究领域：（1）人类生活中的个人机器人;（2）等离子显示技术;（3）儿童和信息系统;（4）城市环境的大规模计算机模拟（“UrbanSim”）;以及（5）行业背景，特别是Sun Microsystems，Microsoft和Openwave。 沿着独立的科学贡献在每个链，研究将解决以下困难，但易于处理的问题，将价值观融入信息和计算机系统的设计：处理不同的价值观，包括隐私，知识产权，公民权利，安全，可访问性，身体健康，自由从偏见，和信任;处理不同的人口和技术;文化多样性的会计;开发综合和迭代方法;适应行业环境;提供评估指标;以及提供将该方法转让给学术界和工业界其他人的手段。 该项目旨在塑造信息技术的设计和开发过程，使下一代信息技术可以在个人和社会层面上普遍提高人类生活。
