* CONFERENCE BACKGROUND AND GOALS

   The IADIS Interfaces and Human Computer Interaction (IHCI) 2007  
conference aims to address the main issues of concern within Interface  
Culture and Design with a particular emphasis on the affective aspects  
of design, development and implementation of interfaces and the  
generational implications for design of human and technology  
interaction. This conference aims to explore and discuss innovative  
studies of technology and its application in interfaces and welcomes  
research in progress, case studies, practical demonstrations and  
workshops in addition to the traditional submission categories.

   This conference aims to cover both technological as well as  
non-technological issues related to these developments. Main tracks  
have been identified (see below). However innovative contributes that  
don?t fit into these areas will also be considered since they might be  
of benefit to conference attendees.

    
* FORMAT OF THE CONFERENCE

   The conference will comprise of invited talks and oral  
presentations. The proceedings of the conference will be published in

authors will be invited to publish extended versions of their papers  
in the Human Technology Journal: An interdisciplinary Journal on  
Humans in ICT Environments (ISSN: 1795-6889) and also in the IADIS  
Journal on Computer Science and Information Systems (ISSN: 1646-3692).
