Human interaction with context-aware computing systems. Context-aware systems can provide seamless support of IT applications in a variety of technologies and therefore can improve: (i) work performance and adoption of IT in many industries; and (ii) the quality of life through better support for health services, education, and everyday tasks. Currently proposed solutions for context-aware systems fail to deliver systems which are usable for non-IT professionals.

Context-aware systems can provide seamless support of IT applications in a variety of technologies and therefore can improve: (i) work performance and adoption of IT in many industries; and (ii) the quality of life through better support for health services, education, and everyday tasks. Currently proposed solutions for context-aware systems fail to deliver systems which are usable for non-IT professionals. The proposed project will show how to design context-aware systems that are usable and whose autonomic decisions can be trusted. Additional benefits include increased scientific competitiveness of Australia, strengthened collaboration with international research institutions, and high quality graduates (PhDs, Masters, Honours).Read moreRead less
Pervasive Lifelong User Modelling for User Controlled Personalisation and Augmented Cognition. This project will give users the ability to scrutinise and control their personal data gathered in pervasive computing environments.

This addresses people's concerns about privacy and overcomes a critical barrier for progress in the development of pervasive computing. This provides national benefit in the following ways:
we will build software infrastructure that will have commercial and
strategic value; we will build a set of demonstrator applications
that address the national priority areas of smart information use, and promoting and maintaining good health; and we will enhance knowledge of the complementary fields of user modelling, context aware computing and personal privacy management.
