Yoomi presented a paper at DIS 2024!

Yoomi presented a full paper entitled "How We Use Together: Coordinating Individual Preferences for Using Shared Devices at Home" at the DIS 2024 conference. This work conducted a diary study and in-depth interviews to observe how members of multi-person households coordinate their preferences in everyday life. The empirical studies discovered that members’ device usage is not solely influenced by their own preferences, but is significantly affected by the preferences and social contexts of other members. This study identified three strategies for coordinating preferences: coordination according to shared priorities, coordination according to shared rules, and coordination for relationships. Based on the findings, design implications were proposed for multi-user smart homes that support coordination.
