“…It would therefore be valuable to replicate the study with members of a local community. As Bruun et al (2017) report, only 3% of studies using touch tables are conducted 'in-the-wild', but it is only through conducting research in natural settings that the accurate worth of the applications in question can be established.…”

Governments and national bodies are increasingly concerned with promoting outdoor activity as a means to benefit general health and wellbeing. Techniques to encourage and popularize engagement with the outdoor environment should therefore be welcome. This paper explores the use of a touch table as a method to facilitate discussions about people's engagement with rural and urban landscapes through recreational walking. We describe a study in north-east Scotland involving 22 participants who undertook walks of their choice using GPS smartphone applications to track their routes. Tracked routes were uploaded to a touch table and small group sessions explored spatial behavior in, and perceptions and knowledge of, local landscapes. Individual interviews 4-6 weeks later elicited reflections on the touch table session and personal engagement with the landscape. Two types of findings are reported: (i) observations and recommendations relating to the use of a touch table in combination with GPS applications; and (ii) knowledge exchange and insights afforded by group discussion and individual reflection. We conclude that our approach is a promising participatory method through which to investigate spatial behavior and promote recreational opportunities in the landscape.

“…The majority of literature makes reference to hype-cycles in the context of information technologies, comprising discussions around 'big data' (Abbasi, Sarker and Chiang, 2016;Bosch, 2016;Chen, Chiang and Storey, 2010), mobile communication (Adamauskas and Krusinkas, 2017;Ozakazi and Barwise, 2011), e-business (Dainty, Leiringer, Fernie and Hartty, 2017;Cihanek, Haseman and Ramamurthy, 2014;Au and Kauffman, 2005), egovernment (Bannister and Cnnolly, 2012), Web 2.0 (Bell and Loane, 2010), tabletop computing (Bruun, Jensen, Kristenses and Kjeldskov, 2017), cloud computing (Willett, 2014;Iyer, Krishnan, Sareen and Panda, 2013), online education (Mcpherson and Bacow, 2015), social media (Roberts and Candi, 2014;O'Leary, 2011), healthcare (Reddy and Sharma, 2016), and the Internet of Things (Urquhart and Rodden, 2017).…”

“…Despite the conceptual usefulness of hype-cycles, much of the literature fails to adopt them as a theoretical lens through which new technology adoption may be explored. For example, some literature acknowledges and uses Gartner's hype-cycle model (Boni, 2018;Kewell and Ward, 2017;Bruun, Jensen, Kristenses and Kjeldskov, 2017;Urquhart and Rodden, 2017;Stratopoulos, 2017;Reddy and Sharma, 2016;Bosch, 2016;Womfram, 2015;Willett, 2014;O'Leary, 2011;Bell and Loane, 2010;Chen, Chiang and Storey, 2010;Wang, 2010;Swanson and Ramiller, 2004;Ramiller and Swanson, 2003), whereas other studies make only fleeting reference to hype-cycles (Adamauskas and Krusinkas, 2017;Dainty, Leiringer, Fernie and Hartty, 2017;Gartner, Maresch and Fink, 2015;McPherson and Bacow, 2015;Roberts and Candi, 2014;Xiatong, Kauffman, Yu and Zhang, 2014;Iyer, Krishnan, Sareen and Panda, 2013;Bannister and Connolly, 2012;Ozakazi and Barwise, 2011;Au and Koffman, 2005;Fichman, 2004), and both Ciganek, Haseman and Ramamurthy (2014) and Nielsen and Fjuk (2010) merely refer to the general 'hype' that surrounds information technology adoption. Dedehayir and Steinert (2016) state that the hype cycle model has become popular model that researchers have been used to critically evaluate technologies during the key stages of their development.…”

Programmatic Advertising: Forewarning and avoiding hype-cycle failure

The emergence of new technologies has often been examined through their transition along the hype-cycle. While this has been a useful approach, recent research indicates that not all new technologies follow the pattern of the hype-cycle as originally envisaged by Gartner. Programmatic Advertising (PA) is a multi-billion dollar business that uses web-based technologies to deliver highly personalised adverts to prospective consumers in real time. Despite its rapid growth it has received precious little scholarly attention. This study is therefore of interest to PA system developers and adopters since most have little understanding of its operation and limitations, and are poorly equipped to make informed decisions about its adoption and use. Through the construction of a Concept Map of the system and the development of four future states of Programmatic Advertising development, consumer concerns over the ethical usage of data and the real return on investment are issues that are identified as requiring the immediate attention of platform developers in order to mitigate the deleterious effects of hype-cycle decline. The study proffers two alternative means by which the Programmatic Advertising hype-cycle may develop, and unpacks the socioeconomic mechanisms by which a loss of serendipity may occur in Programmatic Advertising systems.
