Towards a new human-centred computing methodology for cooperative ambient intelligence

Cooperative ambient intelligence aims to improve users’ work and private life by analysing their current situation with a special focus on their social interaction and to adapt the environment accordingly. As technology is seen as highly embedded in physical environments and the social fabric of users, a reconsideration of methods for its design, implementation, and evaluation is vital. In this paper we characterise cooperative ambient intelligence, revisit existing methods, and discuss what constitutes a novel human-centred computing methodology.
