Description
Scientists and engineers from industry, academia, and major
research institutes from 19 countries contributed to the
Vienna Conference on Human Computer Interaction (VCHCI '93).
This volume contains the proceedings of the conference. Only
submissions of the highest scientific quality were accepted
as papers, and all contributions address the latest research
and application in the human aspects of design and use of
computing systems. The papers cover a large field of human
computer interaction including design, evaluation,
interactive architectures, cognitive models, workplace
environment, and HCI application areas.
The motto of the conference, Fin de Si cle, affiliates
Vienna's intellectual tradition to the field's progressive
development at the end of this century.The VCHCI is focused
on showing that HCI is more than an area to beautify
interaction with computers, provokes disputes among its
different contributing fields, does not flee the vital
questions forpeople using computers, and provides radically
new opportunities for users.
