LL-ADR: Action Design Research in Living Labs

Abstract

Design Science research is a mainstream Information systems discipline, yet Living Lab literature seems not to leverage its insights. The paper describes how Living Labs can be conducted as Design Science Research (DSR) by adapting the Action Design Research method. The resulting method is named LL-ADR. A case is presented to indicate how LL-ADR can be applied and findings for both Living Labs and DSR are discussed.
