Title
Exploring the role of prospective memory in location-based reminders
Abstract
Ubiquitous technology has prompted the use of location-based reminders (LBRs) to help people remember to do things while being away from their desks. However LBRs are still not an effective tool for mobile users. Our work explores how to make LBRs better by using theories of memory, in particular prospective memory, and treating the system that captures the LBRs as an external memory aid. With the knowledge from these two pre-existing literature (prospective memory and external memory aids), we set out to explore how to influence the design and the use of LBRs. In this paper, we propose a framework that uses knowledge and principles from cognitive psychology and present how we might be able to improve LBRs. Our ultimate goal is to facilitate human memory recall for prospective tasks.
