The 19th British HCI Group Annual Conference will be held at Napier
University in Edinburgh, UK, from 5th-9th September 2005. Join
researchers, practitioners and educators from around the world at
HCI2005 where we will be exploring the theme of "The Bigger Picture".
Five high-profile speakers will deliver the conference keynotes: Ted
Nelson (Oxford Internet Institute), Mary Czerwinski
(Microsoft Research), Ashley Friedlein (CEO of E-consultancy.com),
Jackie Lee-Joe (Orange) and Alistair Sutcliffe (University of
Manchester).
Register for the entire conference and get a full social programme
including conference dinner on Wednesday, Ceilidh on Thursday, and
the conference proceedings, published by Springer Verlag (vol 1) and
the British Computing Society (Vol 2). Almost 300 submissions were
received and only the best 35% of these were accepted, ensuring a
high-quality international programme.
Before the conference proper starts (on Wed 7th Sept) there are two
days of excellent tutorials and workshops. Book your places online at
http://www.bcs-hci.org.uk/hci2005/reg.asp. You can also register here
for the main conference - though you can attend a tutorial or wokshop
without registering for the main conference. The following tutorials
last the full day but note there are limited places. At £140 per day
for expert professional tuition they are good value - more detailed
