Systems
Ahmed Seffah Keynote talk for the Second International
Conference on Exploring Services Sciences, Geneva, February 16, 2011

Human-Centric Quality Model
For today, how/for what and not why?
![Page 3: Seffah iess11 keynote the human side of service science](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051400/54bbd0dd4a7959fa3d8b457e/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Agenda
Quality attributes and model of services and service systems
Implications on/for human-centric service design
Persona, measures and patterns as design tools
![Page 4: Seffah iess11 keynote the human side of service science](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051400/54bbd0dd4a7959fa3d8b457e/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Motivations Software and service Service as a software Service systems and software systems Service-oriented engineering
Where previously objects were linked to compose software systems,
We now see the emergence of independent services that can be put together dynamically at run time to form a system of services
![Page 5: Seffah iess11 keynote the human side of service science](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051400/54bbd0dd4a7959fa3d8b457e/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Motivations
Technology side SOA, Web services such as directory services, description languages, and invocation standards, Universal Description, Discovery and Integration (UDDI), Web Services Description Language (WSDL), and the Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP)
Human side The interfaces and interactions between the services, service systems and/or service developers, providers, brokers, users consumers and the many other stakeholders

What is service systems quality?
A service system is a configuration of hardware, software, information, technology and organizational
networks designed to deliver services that satisfy the needs and aspirations
of customers.
![Page 7: Seffah iess11 keynote the human side of service science](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051400/54bbd0dd4a7959fa3d8b457e/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
The back and front side of service systems quality
![Page 8: Seffah iess11 keynote the human side of service science](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051400/54bbd0dd4a7959fa3d8b457e/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The back side
![Page 9: Seffah iess11 keynote the human side of service science](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051400/54bbd0dd4a7959fa3d8b457e/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The front side: the human and the multiple user interfaces
![Page 10: Seffah iess11 keynote the human side of service science](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051400/54bbd0dd4a7959fa3d8b457e/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Existing service quality model
SERVQUAL Service quality can be measured as the gap between
the service that customers expect and the performance they perceive to have received.
Respondents rate their expectations of service from an excellent organization, and then rate the performance they received
Service quality is calculated as the difference in the two scores where better service quality results in a smaller gap (Landrum, Prybutok, Kappelman, & Zhang, 2008).
![Page 11: Seffah iess11 keynote the human side of service science](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051400/54bbd0dd4a7959fa3d8b457e/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The 10 aspects of service quality in EVALQUAL Reliability, responsiveness, competence,
access, courtesy, communication, credibility, security, understanding or knowing the customer and tangibles

Other models
Variants of SERVIQUAL such as SERVPERF
Satisfaction questionnaire Key indicators performance (KPIs) ISO standards such as ISO 9000, ISO
9126, etc.
![Page 13: Seffah iess11 keynote the human side of service science](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051400/54bbd0dd4a7959fa3d8b457e/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Traditional versus computerized (electronic or SasS) services Patterns of human experience and behaviors
New factors are emerging Trust, privacy, universality,
Predictive measures Assess frequently and as early as possible is
better Lack of tools and standardized benchmarks for
testing
Drawbacks
![Page 14: Seffah iess11 keynote the human side of service science](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051400/54bbd0dd4a7959fa3d8b457e/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Beside quality models, design patterns … Proven solutions for well-known problems
that occurs in several usage contexts and projects
![Page 15: Seffah iess11 keynote the human side of service science](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051400/54bbd0dd4a7959fa3d8b457e/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Trustfulness
McKnight & Chervany (1996) Trust is the extent to which and individual
or an organization is willing to depend on something (e.g service or system) or somebody (human, organization) in a given context with a feeling of relative security and safety, even though negative consequences are possible.
![Page 16: Seffah iess11 keynote the human side of service science](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051400/54bbd0dd4a7959fa3d8b457e/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Pattern of trustfulness Online shopping takes place between parties who have never transacted
with each other before, in an environment The service consumer often has insufficient information about the
service provider, and about the goods and services offered. E.g. The consumer generally has no opportunity to see and try
products, i.e. to “squeeze the oranges”, before he buys. The service provider, on the other hand, knows exactly what he gets, as
long as he is paid in money. Face to face communication patterns cannot be applied, call us, we will
help you! Also does not work
(Barnes et Vidgen, 2001a ; Bressolles, 2002a; Wolfinbarger et Gilly, 2002) proposed a design pattern If the consumer can not try the product or service in advance, he can be
confident that it will be what he expects as long as he or she gets all the information online.
The pattern indicate how much, when and how to make visible the information
![Page 17: Seffah iess11 keynote the human side of service science](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051400/54bbd0dd4a7959fa3d8b457e/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Privacy
Privacy is the ability of an individual or a group of people (an organization, a community) to stop information about themselves from becoming known to an individual, a group of people and organization other than those they choose to give the information to
![Page 18: Seffah iess11 keynote the human side of service science](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051400/54bbd0dd4a7959fa3d8b457e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Pattern of privacy and reputation It is difficult, if not impossible, to complete a transaction
without revealing some personal data – a shipping address, billing information, or product preference.
Users may be unwilling to provide this necessary information or even to browse online
(Hafiz, 2006) suggeted four design patterns that can aide the decision making process for the designers of privacy protecting systems.
These patterns are applicable to the design of anonymity systems for various types of online communication, online data sharing, location monitoring, voting and electronic cash management.
![Page 19: Seffah iess11 keynote the human side of service science](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051400/54bbd0dd4a7959fa3d8b457e/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Universality
Universality is the ability to supporting a broad range of hardware, software, and network access and accommodating users with different skills, knowledge, age, gender, handicaps, literacy, culture, income, while bridging the user knowledge gap between what users know and what they need to know
![Page 20: Seffah iess11 keynote the human side of service science](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051400/54bbd0dd4a7959fa3d8b457e/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Patterns for universality Sorry, I do not have
it yet Ph.D thesis Designing a
universal online service: investigating patterns for universal design
Facebook, twitter, yahoo, etc. are good examples of universal services
![Page 21: Seffah iess11 keynote the human side of service science](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051400/54bbd0dd4a7959fa3d8b457e/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
But…
We need to assess the quality of design patterns as well
![Page 22: Seffah iess11 keynote the human side of service science](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051400/54bbd0dd4a7959fa3d8b457e/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

Understanding and modeling user and user experiences Identify and examine the different types of
people who could play a role A persona contains information about a
fictitious, archetypical person who holds an interest in the service. User Knowledge, skills, and abilities goals, motives, and concerns Usage patterns that a user would have of the
system.
