New Zealand Chapter
Association for Computing Machinery (ACM)
Special Interest Group on Computer-Human Interaction (SIGCHI)
Symposium on Computer Human Interaction
(6 July 2001)
UCOL, Palmerston North
The Symposium on Computer Human Interaction was the second annual event organised by the chapter. 50 participants from New Zealand and Australia attended the symposium. Most of the participants were from academic institutions, although there were couple of participants from industry.
The event started with Professor Michael Rees's keynote speech "The Universal User Interface: the web browser as top candidate?" where he proposed that the only graphical user interface that HCI practitioners need work with is the web browser. He pointed out that this approach will make user interface design, implementation and evaluation skills more focussed and effective.
The symposium hosted 12 research presentations and 2 poster displays from major research groups from New Zealand and Australian institutions. The proceedings of the symposium were published and distributed at the symposium.
