The Information Systems (IS) Group includes three interrelated long-standing research strands: reflection on philosophical, sociological, and historical foundations of IS research in engineering and technology; projective research methods for participatory, socially complex, uncertain and non-deterministic sociotecnical realities; and the design and study of new media and connected contexts for learning, stimulation, social and organisational governance, etc.
IS Development research focus on sociotechnical aspects of Information Systems. It ranges from development methodologies for IS, the study of synergies between IS, Governance, Quality Management, Organisational Engineering and Industry 4.0. This line of work aims to support organisations in the digital transformation process, towards the adoption of Industry 4.0 and other systems and services governance contexts. It aims to contribute with new approaches to organisational diagnosis, as well as prescriptive models for improving processes and services. This includes issues such as conformity with regulations, modelling critical systems, supply-chain management, data quality, service life-cycle, modeling and managing semantic interoperability, blockchain, etc.
The Participatory Media Design line of work aims to study Interaction design methodologies, and the exploitation of interactive media under a sociotechnical perspective. Mainly exploring Design Research approaches with new interactive technologies, we study technological influence on fundamental Human phenomena such as play and learning, with the aim to enable new forms of creativity, content and organisation, for context engineering.
