Interaction Design

The Interaction Design theme addresses issues that are wider than those for mainstream software and systems development. In today's society information technology is everywhere - ubiquitous computing as it is known. This theme provides a platform for researchers (both academically and commercially based) in Europe and China to address wider issues than 'traditional usability'.

What activities are happening?

We plan to have seminars and workshops on the theme of Interaction Design. Contents include:

• Traditional vs new usability
• Ubiquitous technologies, information appliances
• Cultural and economic perspectives
• CSCW
• Ethnographies
• Role of developers in society

More details will appear in the activities section when it happens
