Artificial intelligence-driven technology increasingly shapes work practices and, accordingly, employees’ opportunities for meaningful work (MW). In our paper, we identify five dimensions of MW: pursuing a purpose, social relationships, exercising skills and self-development, autonomy, self-esteem and …

This article explores the establishment of new commons initiatives from an integrated design perspective. Such a deeper understanding of the initial phase of becoming a commons -i.e. becommoning- and its design is crucial as members embark on a laborious, time-consuming and uncertain process in which …

As the year passes, keeping themselves afloat has become more challenging for the Netherlands. Climate change and sea level rise are primary factors influencing the maintenance and reinforcement of the country's dikes system. Therefore, a new Delta Plan has been implemented to make the dikes system climate-proof …

The built environment requires energy-flexible buildings to reduce energy peak loads and to maximize the use of (decentralized) renewable energy sources. The challenge is to arrive at smart control strategies that respond to the increasing variations in both the energy demand as well as the variable …

This thesis explores the development and integration of an automatic riggingtool as part of a web-based remote motion capture platform. The main objec-tive is to create a custom Auto Rigger using Python for Maya and seamlesslyincorporate it into the existing TPose platform.The research begins by investigating …

hospitalize the patient excludes the partner, whereas staying at home demands too much care. If other forms of care can be found, the present costs of care could fund new solutions. Architectural research shows some tools like the privacy script and environmental values, but how can these be integrated …

Artificial Intelligence (AI) offers organizations unprecedented opportunities. However, one of the risks of using AI is that its outcomes and inner workings are not intelligible. In industries where trust is critical, such as healthcare and finance, explainable AI (XAI) is a necessity. However, the implementation …

Location data is a sensitive data type that is collected on a wide scale and is easily misused as it can reveal sensitive personal information. Popular and upcoming technologies like AI and IoT devices can play a meaningful role in this as they become more prevalent and integrated into our daily-use …
