Abstract

A typical product development lifecycle for interactive systems starts with contextual analysis to guide system design. The challenge however is in transitioning from findings about users, their activities, and needs, into design requirements, constraints and implications that are directly applicable to design. In this workshop, we seek to bring together researchers, designers, and practitioners who regularly face the challenge of transitioning from contextual analysis to design implications and design practices. Our goal is to foster a community in this space, understand the techniques that are being employed to move from contextual analysis to design, the challenges that still exist, and solutions to overcome them.
