Situating a Design Space for Sustainable Software Appropriation

摘要

This paper describes work in progress aimed at considering temporal aspects of the appropriation process for prolonging the use of software artifacts with enabling design choices. A model of appropriation from the Information Systems domain is applied to understand the stages of appropriation as a process. The model is complemented by proposing a design space for introducing appropriation-enabling options at each stage towards prolonged use of software solutions.
