text: "The use of mobile computing is expanding dramatically in recent years and
trends indicate that “the future is mobile”. Nowadays, mobile computing plays
an increasingly important role in the biomedical domain, and particularly in hospitals.
The benefits of using mobile devices in hospitals are no longer disputed and many
applications for medical care are already available. Many studies have proven
that mobile technologies can bring various benefits for enhancing information
management in the hospital. But is mobility a solution for every problem?\r\n\r\nIn
this paper, we will demonstrate that mobility is not always an advantage. On the
basis of a field study at the pediatric surgery of a large University Hospital,
we have learned within a two-year long mobile computing project, that mobile devices
have indeed many disadvantages, particularly in stressful and hectic situations
and we conclude that mobile computing is not always advantageous."

text: Today, usability measures for the evaluation of systems and interfaces are
mostly assessed in an isolated way. This paper addresses the question whether
an integrative multi-dimensional feature evaluation can lead to different and
more holistic results. We combined traditional measures (e.g., time to task completion)
with advanced measures, like eye tracking, biosignal data logging and assessment
of user emotions. For the evaluation of emotions, we used verbal methods (PAD
Semantic Scale and a questionnaire) and a nonverbal method with EmoCards. The
overall goal was to document and analyze the interaction as completely as possible
(including effectiveness, efficiency and user satisfaction), focusing especially
on objective measurements. Furthermore, the recording and assessment of emotions,
which are part of the user experience, should give insights into user satisfaction.
