CHINZ 2010, 11th annual Conference on the New Zealand ACM Special Interest
Group on Human-Computer Interaction
===========================================================================

Conference Theme: Interaction on the move
Massey University Auckland, 8th ­ 9th July, 2010
 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The CHINZ conference provides a general forum for all those involved with
Computer Human Interaction (CHI or HCI) to address design centred human use
of technology. We welcome full length and short research papers in all areas
of this diverse field and especially encourage graduate students to present
at the conference. There will poster sessions and hands-on demonstrations
during the conference, at which we would encourage industry practitioners to
present.

In recent years more and more researchers in the field of HCI have looked to
apply principles from the design industry to their work. Many have come to
see themselves as Interaction Designers rather than just Interface
Designers. The conference will address a wide range of topics around the
central theme of Interaction on the move. Topics of interest include, but
are not limited to:

* Interaction design
* User centred design
* Applying design principles in HCI
* Social implications of technology (e.g., for disabled or elderly)
* Mobile technologies; games; robotics
* Cognitive psychology
* Usability 
* Guidelines and heuristics
* Implications of technology for cognition
* Education aspects
* Industry case studies.
