Conflation of usefulness and usability
Usefulness: asks whether a system solves an important problem.
Usability: asks how users interact with the system.

many time features &

• Suboptimal degree of interaction with users (i.e.
only

companies
effec1vely
involve
users
in
their
innova1on
process).
• Discrepancy between theory and practice.
(i.e

• Mechanisms to integrate increasingly multidisciplinary
knowledge (gathered
in
diverse
interac1on
contexts)
• Adequate translation and transformation of user insights
(into
more
technical
requirements).
• Path dependency& lock-in (i.e
difficult
to
break
into
new
grounds/
paradigms).

32. Usability is not enough to improve software poorly
designed
1. High-flexible software architectures (from feedback to
co-creation + cognitive surplus).
2. Legislation need to keep pace with the ever-
increasing
33. 3. Systematic participation of users (iterative loop).
4. Cross-disciplinary methodologies (and knowledge
integration tools to deal with complexity).
34. 5. Adopting various IPR
models (providing more
flexible uses).
6. Clear incentives
(combining extrinsic with
intrinsic motivation) I.e.
pull-push
35. 7. QoE matters more
than QoS to users.
8. Open to different
cultures, languages
(but localisation‐
friendly, context
based).
