collaboration-oriented design of disaster response system
It is of the utmost importance, we argue, to specifically tailor disaster response systems with users' collaboration in mind. Such an approach, building on top of, and extending the classic single- and multi-user Human-Computer Interaction paradigm is described in this paper. In what follows, we outline our evacuation support system for walking wounded. The proposed system follows a user-centered design method, coupled with navigationally relevant aspects of human cognition and exemplifies our collaboration-oriented design.
