Existing theories of adoption are compatible with this basic analysis (at least, the parts dealing with the adoption factors associated with individuals). For example the so-called ?diffusion of innovation? theories [13] posit that individual evaluations of ?usefulness?, ?compatibility? and ?ease of use? greatly influence decisions to adopt. But what, precisely, is ?usefulness? and ?compatibility? and how can it be identified in tools? The answer I am working towards is a partial one, but it is a step in the right direction. Usefulness is a function of the cognitive support provided, and ?compatibility? should mean, in part, the retention of built-up cognitive support. To make innovations more adoption-centric, therefore, one needs to reverse engineer and redocument existing legacy DC systems, and then build tools that can reengineer them in ways that retain and build cognitive support. - interesting but focuses on using adoption to drive use of DC support. IE using existing COTS products makes designing DC tools easier to get adopted.}, description = {sdasda}, interhash = {12b28280ad113ede18b0b05a0ea42fad}, intrahash = {a59c1312b69bd676340c624b8d850e80}, keywords = {adoption modeling cognition support}, pages = {36--41}, priority = {4}, publisher = {SEI}, timestamp = {2006-03-24T16:34:33.000+0100}, title = {Improving {A}doptability by {P}reserving, {L}everaging, and {A}dding {C}ognitive {S}upport {T}o {E}xisting {T}ools and {E}nvironments}, url = {http://www.cs.toronto.edu/~nernst/papers/acse03sr004.pdf}, year = 2003 }
