Currently, RIKEN, the leading governmental research institute in Japan, is developpin laboratories in collaboration with Thailand, Vietnam, China, Indonesia
which focused on future mobile applications in a living lab setting, we illustrate how the two challenges can be tackled.
such as the rise of living labs, which are user-driven innovation environmments and the launch of the European Network of Living Labs (ENOLL) in 2006.
and advannce in Living Lab methodologies. She is preparing a Phd thesis on the measurement of Qoe in a mobile media environment.
) Følstad (2008) situates the rise of living labs in this context of user-driven innovation. Living labs are innovation environments that provide full-scale test-bed possibilities for inventing, prototyping,
interaactiv testing and marketing of (new) mobile technology applications (Schumacher and Niitamo, 2008; Følstad, 2008. They can be seen as humancenntri systemic innovation instruments,
Contrary to other test platforms, living labs provide a more natural testing environment and strongly encouurag continuous and meaningful interaction betwwee developers/suppliers and users.
methood and tools into interdisciplinary user-driven innovattio research (e g. in the living lab setting)( Feurstein et al.,
In this respect, the blueprint of a new interdiscciplinar approach for correlating Qoe to Qos parameters in a living lab environment is expanded upon in this paper.

Although it is now part of ilab (an IBBT research platform offering three complementary infrastructuure for elaborate testing in both controlled and liviin lab settings
In addition, we illustrate how a living lab setting can be complemented successfuull by other research methods.
focusing on the evaluation of Qoe in a mobile living lab settiing In this context, we developed a five-step interdiscipplinar approach for linking Qoe to Qos parameters in living lab environments.
This approach draws on hard technical parameters as well as more subjective (social, contextual etc. elements and their translation.
Future research will include the testing of this multimettho approach with a large number of users and several usage contexts and parameters in a living lab setting.
it was illustrated how research in a living lab setting can be complemented by other research methods in order to fuel the userdriive approach.
there is a lack of robust tools to enable context and co-creation research in living labs. Furthermore,
even in living lab research the focus is still primarily on a certain technology or new application (e g. mobile TV),
the establishment of real user-driven living labs might provide a more accuraat insight into users'current and future needs.

The institutional actors, such as firms and industrial laboratories, universities and government laboratories, and their networks constitute the national innovation system (Nelson and Rosenberg 1993).
