HCSE is a bi-annual, single-track, working conference organized by the Working Group 13.2 on Methodology for User-Centred System Design. We aim at bringing together researchers and practitioners interested in strengthening the scientific foundations of user interface design, examining the relationship between software engineering and human-computer interaction and on how to strengthen human-centered design as an essential part of software engineering processes. Other topics of interest include:
HCSE 2022 welcomes contributions as Technical full papers, Late-breaking results, demonstrations and
posters. All papers are peer-reviewed and selected contributions will appear in the proceedings
published
by Springer in the LNCS series.
In the present edition of HCSE 2022 we are particularly interested in studies focused on multi-stakeholder concepts and how to cope with multi-stakeholders taking into account not only micro perspective but on the systemic change level. This research area is central to the host of the current edition of the conference, the Eindhoven University of Technology, Industrial Design, Systemic Change group. In addition, building on the activities carried out by the WG13.2 during the workshop held at the INTERACT 2021 IFIP TC-13 conference, special consideration will be given to issues related to “changing the context of use”, which has significant impact on how to design and develop with a user-centered perspective and how usage of these systems changed for example in the current pandemic situation. As in past editions, the focus of the working group is on user interface properties (such as usability, ux, privacy, trust, security, reliability, adaptability, among others) and how to design, develop and evaluate based on a user-centered development process. We are interested in understanding how different stakeholders and developers value diverse user interface properties and how they manage conflicts between them (when one property might degrade the value of another) on a systemic change level. Our aim is to cover a large set of user interface properties and try to reveal their inner dependencies. We are particularly interested in the development of theories, methods, tools and approaches for dealing with multiple properties that should be taken into account when developing interactive systems.
HCSE welcomes the following types of contributions:
Contributions should be sent via EasyChair. All submissions will be peer-reviewed for their topical relevance, originality, technical contribution, and presentation quality by the members of the international program committee. Technical full papers and late-breaking results short papers will be reviewed double-blind, demonstrations and posters single-blind. Authors must prepare their submission files accordingly! For poster submissions, both paper and poster design draft will be assessed for review. It will be possible for the program committee to suggest accepting submissions in other than their original submission categories.
If we hold a physical conference, under the current circumstances, all accepted submissions will be presented at the conference in technical sessions. It will be possible for authors of accepted technical full papers and late-breaking results short papers to give tool demos as well without submitting additional demo papers.
The conference will NOT enable hybrid participation.
Accepted contributions must be formatted according to the guidelines of the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series of Springer. Authors are requested to prepare submissions as close as possible to final camera-ready versions.
