The Brains4Buildings project aims to develop methods to design new smart building climate management systems that, among other things, reduce energy consumption, increase comfort and respond flexibly to user behavior. We set out to develop design guidelines to help B4B stakeholders when designing innovative …

Algorithmic affordances are defined as user interaction mechanisms that allow users tangible control over AI algorithms, such as recommender systems. Designing such algorithmic affordances, including assessing their impact, is not straightforward and practitioners state that they lack resources to design …

This exploratory study investigates the rationale behind categorizing algorithmic controls, or algorithmic affordances, in the graphical user interfaces (GUIs) of recommender systems. Seven professionals from industry and academia took part in an open card sorting activity to analyze 45 cards with examples …

In flexible education, recommender systems that support course selection, are considered a viable means to help students in making informed course selections, especially where curricula offer greater flexibility. However, these recommender systems present both potential benefits and looming risks, such …

Design schools in digital media and interaction design face the challenge of integrating recent artificial intelligence (AI) advancements into their curriculum. To address this, curricula must teach students to design both "with" and "for" AI. This paper addresses how designing for AI differs from designing …

Office well-being aims to explore and support a healthy, balanced and active work style in office environments. Recent work on tangible user interfaces has started to explore the role of physical, tangible interfaces as active interventions to explore how to tackle problems such as inactive work and …

This paper presents challenges in city logistics for circular supply chains of e-e-waste. Efficient e-waste management is one of the strategies to save materials, critical minerals, and precious metals. E-waste collection and recycling have gained attention recently due to lower collection and recycling …

Many ARM Cortex-M-based microcontrollers include tracing features which allow monitoring hardware events (e.g. exceptions occurring, a specific instruction being executed or a specific address range being accessed by the CPU). Tracing enables non-intrusive insight into software execution (i.e. software …

Little progress has been made in recent years toward achieving a fully circular economy by 2050. Implementing circular urban supply chains is a major economic transformation that can only work if significant coordination problems between the actors involved are solved. On the one hand, this requires …

Voor het laatste gedeelte van mijn opleiding heb ik een afstudeerstage gedaan bij het softwarebedrijf Betabit in Apeldoorn van 1 september 2022 tot en met 10 februari 2023. Ik heb voor Oscar van Tol en Rick van den Bosch (de hosts van de Betatalks podcast) een applicatie gebouwd waarmee zij gemakkelijk …
