#1: People-centered systems research methodology • Are we the NSA/GCHQ? • or do we want people to like us? • how can we balance privacy (of network users) and utility (of network researchers)? • It's an HDI world (http://hdiresearch.org/) • we are all conducting human subjects experiments nowadays • ethics? • (informed) consent? • It's a scientific world • reproducibility is nice • how can we share network data (EPSRC research data policy) and other data (NHS, Open Data)? • how can we describe and distribute experimental policies and protocols?

#2: People-centered systems research (Once we get a handle on how to do things...) • Access for all (IRTF GAIA) • inclusion for all • lots of HDI challenges • New services: “eHealth”, “eGovt” • system support • mobility, IoT, sensors, etc. • lots of HDI challenges • Energy security, usage and costs • energy as a first-class citizen in systems • e,g., energy as a QoS metric • lots of HDI challenges Tristan Henderson People and networked systems research: easy as 1,2,... 2014/02/14
