Research Paper: Why and how do organizations create user-led open source consortia? A systematic literature review
Abstract: Context: User-led open source (OS) consortia (foundations) consist of organizations from industries beyond the software industry collaborating to create open-source software solutions for their internal processes. Initially pioneered by higher education organizations in the 2000s, this concept has gained traction in recent years across various industries. Objective: This study has two research objectives. The […]Abstract: Context: User-led open source (OS) consortia (foundations) consist of organizations from industries beyond the software industry collaborating to create open-source software solutions for their internal processes.

Final Thesis: A Behavioral Design Framework for Optimizing User Behavior: The NUDGE Framework
Abstract: Creating intuitive, user-centric solutions is challenging, particularly in developer-focused fields with limited exposure to behavioral science and usability principles. This thesis introduces the NUDGE Framework, a conceptual behavioral design framework aiming to bridge the gap between design and development. It provides developers — especially those without a design background — with a systematicapproach to […]Abstract: Creating intuitive, user-centric solutions is challenging, particularly in developer-focused fields with limited exposure to behavioral science and usability principles.
