The PURE workshop aims to engage interdisciplinary research. Workshop topics of interest include, but are not restricted to:
User Research Methods: Which methods and techniques (e.g., adapted from HCI, Design Thinking, Value-sensitive Design) are most effective in ensuring a positive user experience through empathy?
Participatory RE / Co-CreationHow can we actively involve end-users in the RE process, particularly those from specific target groups, to foster a sense of inclusion, human values and empathy?
Interdisciplinary SynergiesWhat interdisciplinary insights and best practices (e.g., from domains like psychology, human factors) can be adapted into RE and thus support user-centered design?
Emerging technologies and user-centered qualitiesIn what ways can emerging technologies, like LLMs, support but not detract from user-centered RE that empathizes with the user’s journey? Which human-centered qualities are gaining more importance in the future (e.g., explainability)
