Abstract

This panel invites the CHI community to examine the select set of criteria that we typically use to judge the quality of systems-in-use in society. In addition to accuracy, reliability, and efficiency, panelists draw on their design and research experiences to offer a diversity of perspectives on what makes a good computer system good. Discussion emphasizes safety, computing in the service of human needs, the artful integration of computer systems into their sites of use, and ethical considerations.
