Proceedings of the 7th ACM SIGCHI Symposium on Engineering Interactive Computing Systems

Abstract

It is our great pleasure to welcome you to the 7th ACM SIGCHI Symposium on Engineering Interactive Computing Systems --- EICS'15 held in Duisburg, Germany (23--26 June 2015). EICS is an annual international conference series devoted to all aspects of engineering usable and effective interactive computing systems. Topics of interest include the design and development of systems with new interaction techniques and modalities, multi-device interaction, service front-ends, mobile and pervasive systems, large-scale and big data applications, as well as novel development methods and processes. EICS focuses on methods, techniques and tools that support designing and developing interactive systems. The Conference brings together people who study or practice the engineering of interactive systems, drawing from a broad range of disciplines such as Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), Software Engineering, Requirements Engineering, CSCW, Ubiquitous / Pervasive Systems, or Game Development. It addresses technical and methodological research questions that are typically less well represented in other HCI conferences. With its focus on engineering interactive systems, the conference has become the premier venue for all researchers and practitioners interested in the effective and systematic design and development of innovative, high-quality interactive systems.
