HCI International 2019
26 - 31 July 2019 - Orlando, Florida, USA
HCI International 2019, the 22nd International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction, was held in Orlando, Florida, USA, 26 – 31 July, under the auspices of 18 distinguished international boards of 440 Board Members from 42 countries.
HCI International 2019 explored a wide variety of new hot topics which reflect and contribute to a paradigm shift towards ubiquitous interaction, intelligent environments and interactive technologies supporting virtually any aspect of human life and activities in a global and social perspective.
The 35-volume Conference Proceedings are published by Springer in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS), Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence (LNAI) and Communications in Computer and Information Science (CCIS) series, and are available on-line through the SpringerLink Digital Library, readily accessible by all subscribing libraries around the world.
This year the HCII Conference has introduced the new option of “Late Breaking Work”. This applies both for papers and posters and the corresponding volume(s) of the proceedings will be published after the conference. Full papers will be included in the ‘HCII 2019 Late Breaking Work Papers Proceedings’ Volume to be published under the Springer LNCS series, while poster extended abstracts will be included as short papers in the ‘HCII 2019 Late Breaking Work Poster Extended Abstracts’ Volume to be published under the Springer CCIS series.
An impressive number of more than 1900 individuals from 74 countries registered to participate in this truly international in scope event, where the work of the world’s foremost leaders in the field is presented.
We are privileged that Prof. Richard H. R. Harper, Co-director of the Institute for Social Futures, Professor at the School of Computing and Communications of Lancaster University, United Kingdom, joined us as the keynote speaker at the opening plenary session.
