Home-Oriented Informatics and Telematics is an essential
reference for both academic and professional researchers in the
field of home informatics. The home is a key aspect of society and
the widespread use of computers and other information appliances is
transforming the way in which we live, work and communicate in the
information age. This area of study has seen remarkable growth in
the last few years as information technology has encroached into
every corner of home and social spheres.
The papers selected here cover a growing range of topics,
including assistive technology; smart homes; home technology;
memory aids; home activity; appliance design; design methodology;
time, space and virtual presence; social and ethical aspects; and
home activities.
This state-of-the-art volume presents the proceedings of the
Home-Oriented Informatics and Telematics conference held in York,
U.K, April 13-15, 2005. This collection will be important not only
for home informatics experts and researchers, but also for
teachers, administrators, and anyone else seeking to keep up to
date in this rapidly emerging field.
