Computer scientists introduce innovative new work at annual conferences. The Human-Computer Interaction research community expands the state of the art at these, the field's most prestigious and selective conferences:
Human-computer interaction (HCI) is a multidisciplinary field of study focusing on the design of computer technology, in particular, the interaction between humans (the users) and computers. HCI researchers observe the ways humans interact with computers and design technologies that allow humans to interact with computers in novel ways.
