Suggested Topics:
This mini-track supports a wide ranging set of research topics, methods, and perspectives. Possible topics include but are not limited to the following: 

* Behavioral, cognitive, and motivational aspects of human/computer interaction
* User task analysis and modeling
* The analysis, design, development, evaluation, and use of information systems
   - Guidelines and standards for interface and interaction design
   - Novel interaction and interface designs for handheld mobile devices
   - Interface issues in the development of radical interaction technologies
   - User studies (including field tests) of interaction with mobile information systems
   - Usability testing  for the Web and 3-D interface  and interaction techniques
* HCI security (HCI-SEC) and privacy for interface design and interaction
* Design of trustworthy user interfaces
   - Design of interfaces to increase trust and credibility
   - Design of interfaces to decrease distrust, deception or privacy violations
* User interface design and evaluation of the Web for 
   - B2B, B2C, C2C E-Commerce or M-Commerce
   - Government to Consumer or Business E-commerce
   - Group collaboration
   - Negotiation and auction
   - Virtual World (e.g. Second Life)
* The impact of interface design or usability on the attitudes, behaviors, performance, perceptions, or productivity of individuals, organizations, and society
* HCI issues related to the elderly, the disabled, and other special needs populations
* Design and analysis of wearable, pervasive, or ubiquitous systems and computing
* Issues in teaching and designing HCI courses or programs
* Human factors issues related to the design and use of information systems
* Case studies looking at interface or interaction design and usability

A number of papers regarding interface design, evaluation and impact have been published at the premier IS journals in the past. Excellent conference submissions have also been considered for fast-track options at journals publishing HCI research. 


We welcome submissions that fall within the above topical list. We also welcome papers that integrate brief demonstrations or interactive discussions of new HCI techniques, methods, or concepts into their AMCIS presentations.
