Let's Talk About the Quantified Workplace

Over the past decades the advances in pervasive technology have enabled new ways of understanding human behaviour in the workplace. This trend merged with the new rise in the Quantified-Self movement has engendered a new paradigm of Quantified Workplace, where sensing solutions as well as participatory inputs could be used to model, quantify and visualise dynamics of the workplace. In this workshop we want to start a new dialogue to discuss challenges, insights and reflections on this topic. To this aim we are looking for original submissions which offer new insights or propose new techniques for Quantified Workplace. We welcome technical research papers, qualitative research studies, case studies as well as work-in-progress papers which could trigger discussions around the workshop topics.
