This paper presents the results qualitative study exploring requirements practitioners' perceptions attitudes towards sustainability. It identifies obstacles mitigation strategies regarding application principles daily work life. The this reveal several factors that prevent from becoming first...
Desmosomes are adhesive cell contacts abundant in tissues exposed to mechanical strain, such as the stratified and simple epithelia of epidermis mucous membranes, well myocardium. Besides their role cohesion, desmosomes also modulate pathways important for tissue differentiation, wound healing immune responses. Dysfunctional desmosomes, resulting from pathogenic variants genes encoding desmosomal components, autoantibodies targeting adhesion molecules or inflammation, cause life-threatening...
An increasing number of institutions throughout the world face legal obligations or business needs to collect and preserve digital objects over several decades. A range tools exists today support variety preservation strategies such as migration emulation. Yet, different requirements across settings make decision on which solution implement very diffcult.
Interactive fiction and video games are part of our cultural heritage. As original systems cease to work because hardware media failures, methods preserve obsolete for future generations have be developed. The public interest in early is high, as exhibitions, regular magazines on the topic newspaper articles demonstrate. Moreover, considered classic rereleased new gaming hardware. However, with rapid development computer systems, way look played changes constantly. When trying console one...
Participation is key to building an equitable, realistic and democratic future. Yet a lack of agency in decision making agenda-setting growing phenomenon the design digital public services. We call this pseudo-participation by design. The configuration artifacts and/or processes can provide illusion participation but supportive affordances allow meaningful happen. This exploratory paper examines realm services through two concepts: 1) design, interfaces, tools that people, 2) which those...
In this article we show that the 5G competition between United States and Western Europe versus China is not reflected in standardisation of lawful interception (LI) technologies world's leading telecommunications body, 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP). Guided by concept infrastructure as a site tool political contestation, develop new approach to study Internet governance standard-setting processes leverages web scraping computer-assisted document set discovery software tools. We...
We as software engineers are responsible for the long-term consequences of systems we design—including impacts on wider environmental and societal sustainability. However, field lacks analytical tools understanding these potential while designing a system or identifying opportunities using to bring about broader transformations. This article explores how concept leverage points can be used make sustainability issues more tangible in design. The example transportation illustrates help map out...
As part of global climate action, digital technologies are seen as a key enabler energy efficiency savings. A popular application domain for this work is smart homes. There risk, however, that these gains result in rebound effects , which reduce or even overcompensate the Rebound well-established economics, but it less clear whether they also inform research other disciplines. In paper, we ask: to what extent have and their underlying mechanisms been considered computing, HCI home research?...
Requirements articulating the needs of stakeholdersare critical to successful system development and key influencing their long-term effects. As concept sustainability has entered discourse a number software-related computing fields, so term 'sustainability requirement'. However, it is unclear whether requirements areand should be different from how we already understand softwarerequirements. This paper presents results corpus assisted analysis study that explored in order being used...
The increasing use and prominence of web archives raises the urgency establishing mechanisms for transparency in making to facilitate process evaluating a archive's provenance, scoping, absences. Some choices events are captured automatically, but their interactions not currently well understood or documented. This study examined decision space its role shaping what is archiving process. By comparing how three different collections were created documented, we investigate curatorial decisions...
This contribution presents the impact of internal and network-side demand factors in load management systems according to section 14a German Energy Industry Act using example charging points for electric vehicles. A methodology generate is presented applied average power from 1 kW 11 kW. Load then integrated a tool automated strategic network planning. For 2 different real low-voltage networks are 4 cases on state reinforcement costs analysed. The simulations show that have significant...
In the densifying data ecosystem of today's cities, intermediaries are crucial stakeholders in facilitating access and use. Community advocates live these sites social injustices opportunities for change. Highly experienced working with to enact change, they offer distinctive insights on practices tools. This paper examines unique perspectives that community intermediaries. Based interviews 17 23 grassroots nonprofit organizations, we propose quality "near" "far" be seriously considered...
The accelerating development and deployment of AI technologies depend on the continued ability to scale their infrastructure. This has implied increasing amounts monetary investment natural resources. Frontier applications have thus resulted in rising financial, environmental, social costs. While factors that scaling depends reach its limits, push for accelerated advancement entrenchment continues. In this paper, we provide a holistic review using four lenses (technical, economic,...
Sustainability is a central concern for our society, and software systems increasingly play role in it. As designers of technology, we cause change are responsible the effects design choices. We recognize that there rapidly increasing awareness fundamental need desire more sustainable world, lot genuine goodwill. However, this alone will be ineffective unless come to understand address persistent misperceptions. The Karlskrona Manifesto Design aims initiate much needed conversation beyond...

Technical Debt arises from decisions that favour short-term outcomes at the cost of longer-term disadvantages. They may be taken knowingly or based on missing incomplete awareness costs; they are in different roles, situations, stages and ways. Whatever technical business factor motivate such decisions, always imply a trade-off time, 'now vs. later'. How exactly made, how have been studied?
