CREATIV
-
Abstract: CREATIV explores how the concept of co-adaptation can revolutionize the design and use of interactive software. Co-adaptation is the parallel phenomenon in which users both adapt their behavior to the system’s constraints, learning its power and idiosyncrasies, and appropriate the system for their own needs, often using it in ways unintended by the system designer. The initial goal of the CREATIV project is to fundamentally improve the learning and expressive capabilities of advanced users of creative software, offering significantly enhanced methods for expressing and exploring their ideas. The ultimate goal is to radically transform interactive systems for everyone by creating a powerful and flexible partnership between human users and interactive technology.
Social Privacy
-
Instrument: Marie Curie International Outgoing Fellowships for Career Development
-
Partner: Inria (France) and Massachusets Institute of Technology (USA)
-
Abstract: Although users' right to privacy has long been protected, the rapid adoption of social media has surpassed society’s ability to effectively regulate it. Today’s users lack informed consent: they must make all-or-nothing decisions about on-line privacy regardless of context. The Social Privacy project will first diagnose the problem, exploring privacy issues associated with social media at the level of the individual, the enterprise and society, and then generate effective solutions, from providing users with technical safeguards and informed consent, to establishing corporate guidelines for protecting privacy, to developing and testing recommendations for public policy.
Collaborations in European Programs, except FP7
EIT ICT Labs Master School, European Institute of Technology. Coordinator: M. Beaudouin-Lafon. Partners: KTH (Sweden), U. Paris-Sud (France), U. Aalto (Finland), Technical University Berlin (Germany), Technical University Delft (Netherlands), U. College London (UK), U. Trento (Italy). InSitu participates in the Human-Computer Interaction and Design (HCID) major of the EIT ICT Labs European Master School. Paris-Sud is of the two sites for the first year of this Master Program, and host one of the specialties for second-year students. Students in this program receive a double degree after studying in two countries. https://www.dep-informatique.u-psud.fr/en/formation/lmd/M1_HCID .
