About this title

Synopsis

The papers collected here are those selected for presentation at the Eighth IFIP Conference on Engineering for Human-Computer Interaction (EHCI 2001) held in Toronto, Canada in May 2001. The conference is organized by the International Federation of Information Processing (IFIP) Working Group 2.7 (13.4) for Interface User Engineering, Rick Kazman being the conference chair, Nicholas Graham and Philippe Palanque being the chairs of the program committee. The conference was co-located with ICSE 2001 and co-sponsored by ACM. The aim of the IFIP working group is to investigate the nature, concepts, and construction of user interfaces for software systems. The group's scope is: • to develop user interfaces based on knowledge of system and user behavior; • to develop frameworks for reasoning about interactive systems; and • to develop engineering models for user interfaces. Every three years, the working group holds a working conference. The Seventh one was held September 14-18 1998 in Heraklion, Greece. This year, we innovated by organizing a regular conference held over three days.

Synopsis

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 8th IFIP International Conference on Engineering for Human-Computer Interaction, EHCI 2001, held in Toronto, Canada, in May 2001. The 21 revised full papers and 4 revised short papers presented have passed through 2 rounds of reviewing and improvement and were selected from more than 50 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on software engineering methods, formal methods, toolkits, user interface evaluation, user interface plasticity, 3D user interfaces, input and output devices, mobile interaction, and context sensitive interaction.
