Evaluating a vehicle auditory display: comparing a designer's expectations with listeners' experiences (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
McGregor, I., Larsson, P., & Turner, P. (2011, August). Evaluating a vehicle auditory display: comparing a designer's expectations with listeners' experiences. Presented at 29th conference of the European Association of Cognitive Ergonomics, Rostock, Germany

This paper illustrates a method for the early evaluation of auditory displays in context. A designer was questioned about his expectations of an auditory display for Heavy Goods Vehicles, and the results were compared to the experiences of 10 listene...

Problem definition in designing product service systems (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Annamalai Vasantha, G., Roy, R., & Cakkol, M. (2011, May). Problem definition in designing product service systems. Presented at The 3rd CIRP International Conference on Industrial Product-Service Systems, Braunschweig, Germany

In these early stages of PSS research, it is necessary to define a holistic problem definition for designing productservice systems (PSS). In this paper, the current industrial practice of the problem definition within PSS is analyzed and presented.... Read More about Problem definition in designing product service systems.

Industry Practices and Challenges in Using Product in Use Data to Inform PSS Conceptual Design (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Hussain, R., Lockett, H., & Vasantha, G. A. (2011, May). Industry Practices and Challenges in Using Product in Use Data to Inform PSS Conceptual Design. Presented at The 3rd CIRP International Conference on Industrial Product-Service Systems, Braunschweig, Germany

Both Product-Service System (PSS) literature and industry express a need to close the design loop by feeding product-in-use data to conceptual design. Nevertheless, how to actually accomplish this for PSS Conceptual Design is largely absent. This pap...
