5th ERCIM WORKSHOP ON
"USER INTERFACES FOR ALL"
Dagstuhl, Germany, 28 November - 1 December 1999
Special Theme
"User-Tailored Information Environments"
Final Call for Papers
Please note: Extended Deadline for Submitting Papers
http://fit.gmd.de/5-UI4ALL-Workshop/call.html
---------------------
| Technical Description |
---------------------
The 5th ERCIM Workshop on "User Interfaces for All"
builds upon the results of the four previous Workshops
held at Heraklion, Greece, 30-31 October 1995; Prague,
Czech Republic, 7-8 November 1996; Obernai, France,
3-4 November 1997; and Stockholm, Sweden 19-21 October 1998.
The vision of User Interfaces for All advocates the
proactive realisation of the design for all principle
in the field of Human-Computer Interaction, and involves
the development of user interfaces to interactive
applications and telematic services, which provide
universal access and quality in use to potentially all
users. This user population includes people with different
cultural, educational, training and employment background,
novice and experienced computer users, the very young and
the elderly, and people with different types of disabilities,
in various interaction contexts and scenarios of use.
This Annual European Workshop aims to consolidate recent
work, and to stimulate further discussion, on the state of
the art in user interfaces for all. The emphasis of this
year's Workshop is on theories, methodologies, techniques
and tools which contribute to the development of
User-Tailored Information Environments.
