Conference tracks and topics
To facilitate quality reviewing, and to assign reviewers, authors will be required to select one main track for each submission. It is important for authors to carefully select the track as it will have an impact on how the submission is evaluated and which reviewers are assigned. While author will suggest a primary track, the scientific chair may move the paper to a different track to improve fit.
Papers may have overlap between tracks; thereby, authors are encouraged to consider the main contribution of the work using this brief rule of thumb:
User-Centred Studies
This covers research about improvements to the user in terms of user characteristics and experience.
Tasks and Workplace
This concerns research relating to improvements in human tasks to enhance performance in the homes and workplaces.
Technological Advances
This involves research into technology advancements to enhance human-computer interaction and design of effective user interfaces.
System Design
This focuses on development of future systems in various application domains.
Design for Environment
This relates to research into natural and virtual environment.
Theory and Methods in HFE
This explores development or revisiting theories and methods in human factors and ergonomics.
All submissions will be peer reviewed by the Conference Scientific Committee. Accepted FULL papers will be published in the conference proceedings published by Springer and indexing by Scopus.
