Mobile Applications for Police Officers

This paper focuses on the design parameters on the part of the stakeholders and users in the design of mobile applications for police officers. Starting from an analysis of the functional requirements of stakeholders and relevant context parameters for police officers, we find design issues that are relevant to the development of context-aware mobile applications for police officers. We collect...

Issues and Solutions for Command Post Simulation

Highly efficient command post teams are essential to efficient execution of network centric warfare operations. Unfortunately, the modeling of joint command post teams is still very much in its infancy and this lack of foundational research hinders our ability to assess the performance of command post teams and to assess the ability of a new technology or procedures to improve command post oper...

Context-Aware Notification for Mobile Police Officers

To minimize unwanted interruption and information overload during surveillance, mobile police officers need to be supported by a mobile, contextaware notification system. This system adapts message presentation to message priority and context of use. A prototype is designed and evaluated in a simulated surveillance task, requiring users to attend to videos while handling messages on a mobile de...

Coordinating police work with mobile information technology

This paper presents a study of talk as a way of organizing and coordinating police work. In recent years mobile phones have been introduced as a complement to communication radio in work. By analyzing recordings of talk from fixed and mobile telephones as well as communication radio, we can see how the choice of communication technology guides the structure of work. In this paper we point to ho...
