Studying and tackling temporal challenges in mobile HCI

Published:10 April 2010Publication History

ABSTRACT

In this paper, I present the idea of receptivity as a broader concept than interruptibility alongside empirical studies of receptivity to interruptions on mobile devices in naturalistic settings, and a methodology based around experience-sampling in order to inform and motivate the development of concepts and models for system design that respond to issues of receptivity in general and temporal challenges such as timing and episodic engagement in particular.
