A scenario-based approach for projecting user requirements for wireless proximal community networks

作者:

Highlights:

• We use a scenario-based approach to test designs for a community wireless network.

• We find predictors for social, economic and civic/cultural uses of mobile devices.

• We develop a new scale for sense of community in downtown settings.

• We find that interstitial spaces consistently predict an interest in our scenarios.

• Sense of community factors also influence interest in our application’s design.
