Description
Current developments in the design and implementation of interactive software are presented and discussed in this volume by an international group of researchers and developers. Engineering for Human-Computer Interaction is a stimulating collection of current approaches to re-usable software and design tools for interactive systems. 23 full-length papers are grouped into five sections: Design Experiences, Models and Architectures, User Support, Formalisms, Programming Language Approaches. The introductions to each section highlight common themes and alternative approaches. Transcripts of discussions of presentations accompany each paper.
