“…Rather, improved structures for cooperation between ship and shore, and between departments and workers on board are likely to have a positive impact on both individual and overall performance and reduce the risks for accidents and ill-health, as illustrated for instance by [25]. Similarly, the benefits of involving the crew as end-users in purchase, design and development processes of new work systems, workspaces and equipment are well established also within the maritime domain, see for instance [26][27][28].…”

This paper presents findings from three workshops focused on the physical, organizational and social work environment of service crew working on board Swedish passenger vessels. The first workshop aimed to identify underlying causes of long-term sick leave among employees in the service department, and potential measures that can be taken to reduce ill-health. The second and third workshop explored knowledge of available methods to identify occupational safety and health risks, and suggest health-promotion strategies at individual, team and company levels. A total of 58 persons from the Swedish maritime cluster participated in the workshops. During the workshops, open and structured brainstorming was used to create affinity diagrams to systematically summarize the identified causes, risks and strategies. Although the results presented in this article stem from a research project focused on Swedish passenger vessels, many of the findings may be transferable to an international maritime setting towards a deeper understanding of seafarers' work environment and working conditions. http://www.transnav.eu the International Journal on Marine Navigation and Safety of Sea Transportation Volume 12 Number 3

“…The methods used in this research for developing DsPLAi are based on the principles of UCD to take usability into serious account right from the early design process. UCD is a framework of processes in which user characteristics, goals, needs, and preferences are the central focus of each stage of the design process (Costa, Holder, & MacKinnon, 2017;Robins et al, 2010). Since proposed initially by Donald Norman in the 1980s, the UCD approaches haven been widely used in industrial and interaction design (Chen, 2019;Costa et al, 2017;Grandi, Zanni, Peruzzini, Pellicciari, & Campanella, 2019).…”

User-Centered Design Approaches to Integrating Intellectual Property Information into Early Design Processes with a Design Patent Retrieval Application

The relationship between intellectual property rights (IPRs) and the development of creativity is always a controversial topic. However, it has seldom been explored from the user-centred design (UCD) perspective. This paper describes how the UCD approach has been employed to develop Design Patent Retrieval Application (acronym: DsPLAi), a mobile app aimed to integrate IPRs related information into early design processes to enhance designers' IP practice and to facilitate the creative process. Interview studies were first conducted to identify end-users' understanding of IPRs and related practices. Next, participatory design workshops with designers and IP processionals were organised to understand the interaction between the two parties and their needs, thereby deriving requirements for DsPLAi. A prototype of the app was developed and evaluated with ten industrial designers. The prototype received positive feedback in the usability evaluation. The empirical results showed that the provision of IPRs related information at an early stage could be helpful to the design process and that the designers were positive about the use of DsPLAi in their daily design routines.

“…In recent years, various new software components for ship bridges have been proposed in research (e.g., for novel ways of interacting with ship bridge systems [2]). However, while more and more technologies are presented in research the speed at which these technologies appear on real systems is rather slow.…”

Mobile Bridge - A Portable Design Simulator for Ship Bridge Interfaces

Developing new software components for ship bridges is challenging. Mostly due to high costs of testing these components in realistic environments. To reduce these costs the development process is divided into different stages. Whereas, the final test on a real ship bridge is the last step in this process. However, by dividing the development process into different stages new components have to be adapted to each stage individually. To improve the process we propose a mobile ship bridge system to fully support the development process from lab studies to tests in realistic environments. Our system allows developing new software components in the lab and setting it up on a ship bridge without interfering with the vesselʹs navigational systems. Therefore it is linked to a NaviBox to get necessary information such as GPS, AIS, compass, and radar information. Our system is embedded in LABSKAUS, a test bed for the safety assessment of new e-Navigation systems. http://www.transnav.eu the International Journal on Marine Navigation and Safety of Sea Transportation Volume 12 Number 4
