Human-Centered Computing (HCC)
lies at the crossroads of multiple disciplines and research areas that are
concerned both with understanding human beings and with the design of
computational methods. Researchers and designers of HCC
methods and systems include engineers, scholars in psychology, cognitive
science, sociology, and graphic designers, among others. Research in HCC
deals with understanding humans, both as individuals and in social groups, by
focusing on the ways that human beings adopt, adapt, and organize their lives
around computational technologies, and on how the development of
computational technologies can be informed by human aspects (culture, social
setting, human abilities, etc.). Human-Centered
Computing addresses problems that the field of Human Computer Interaction
(HCI) does not generally address.
In
HCC
the focus is not only on interaction, but also on the design of algorithms
and systems with a human focus from start to finish.
This
year´s workshop builds on the discussions on the
previous workshops on this topic held with ACM Multimedia 2007 and 2006.

Final presentations & summary (30
minutes)
|
The program will start with an invited keynote by
Prof. Sasse, followed by brief but animated
presentations of each of the papers. We will then ask participants to break
into groups. In the first part of the workshop the groups will focus on a
particular theme or application in HCC.
At the end of the thematic break out group sessions, each group will make a
presentation. During the second half, new break out groups will be formed, in
which the goal will be to think of the processes or methodologies presented
and discussed during the workshop. The outcomes of this second stage will
also be presented.
Important: The workshop is open. Anyone can attend.
To ensure continuity, however, we expect attendees to participate in as many
activities in the workshop as possible.
