This project is to design, implement and trial automated programs to help smokers quit. It makes use of the powers of modern computing and telecommunications. It uses information the person provides to personally tailor advice and assistance to smokers as they progress from beginning to think about quitting through to being a stable, happy non-smoker. In particular, we are interested in the relative value of detailed advice as compared with the capacity of modern messaging technology (SMS, voice, images) to provide a set of prompts and reminders that help smokers manage a quit attempt and help prevent them relapsing back to smoking. Once we have developed the interventions, we will subject them to a rigorous scientific trial to see how effective they are and also how cost-effective they prove. Our hope is that these programs will provide a cheap, accessible and effective way of helping smokers to quit and thus help reduce the huge toll of smoking-related disease.

该项目旨在设计、实施和试用自动化程序来帮助吸烟者戒烟。它利用现代计算和电信的力量。它使用个人提供的信息，为吸烟者提供个人定制的建议和帮助，因为他们从开始考虑戒烟到成为一个稳定，快乐的非吸烟者。特别是，我们感兴趣的是详细建议的相对价值，与现代信息技术（短信，语音，图像）的能力相比，提供一套提示和提醒，帮助吸烟者管理戒烟尝试，并帮助防止他们重新吸烟。一旦我们开发出干预措施，我们将对它们进行严格的科学试验，看看它们的有效性以及它们的成本效益。我们希望这些项目能提供一种便宜、方便和有效的方法来帮助吸烟者戒烟，从而帮助减少与吸烟有关的疾病的巨大损失。
