People and Computers XII

Abstract

Human Computer Interaction (HCI) is the scientific field that is concerned with every aspect of the relationship between computers and people (individuals, groups and society). This volume provides an overview of the very latest, state-of-the-art developments in the field. It contains the refereed papers and reports from the 1994 meeting of the British Computer Society's HCI group. A broad range of HCI-related topics are covered, including interactive systems development, user interface design, user modeling, tools, hypertext and CSCW. Because both research and commercial perspectives are considered, the book will be essential for all researchers, designers and manufacturers who need to keep abreast of developments in HCI.
