present, discuss, and explore a wide range of issues related to HCI and IS.
These issues include the history, foundation disciplines, theories, practice,
methodologies and techniques, new developments, and applications concerning the
interaction between humans, information, information systems, and technology.
In an effort to bridge academia and industry, papers may range from formal
research studies to those based on experiences, real-world observations, and
expert opinion. The Track is open to all types of quantitative and qualitative
research methodologies (including conceptualization, theorization, case study,
action research, experimentation, field study, survey, and simulation). We also
welcome visionary articles, interactive demonstrations, and research in
progress papers.</span></p>
