Foreword
The 13th International Conference on Human–Computer Interaction, HCI Interna-
tional 2009, was held in San Diego, California, USA, July 19–24, 2009, jointly with
the Symposium on Human Interface (Japan) 2009, the 8th International Conference on
Engineering Psychology and Cognitive Ergonomics, the 5th International Conference
on Universal Access in Human–Computer Interaction, the Third International Confer-
ence on Virtual and Mixed Reality, the Third International Conference on Internation-
alization, Design and Global Development, the Third International Conference on
Online Communities and Social Computing, the 5th International Conference on
Augmented Cognition, the Second International Conference on Digital Human Model-
ing, and the First International Conference on Human Centered Design.
A total of 4,348 individuals from academia, research institutes, industry and govern-
mental agencies from 73 countries submitted contributions, and 1,397 papers that were
judged to be of high scientific quality were included in the program. These papers ad-
dress the latest research and development efforts and highlight the human aspects of the
design and use of computing systems. The papers accepted for presentation thoroughly
cover the entire field of human-computer interaction, addressing major advances in
knowledge and effective use of computers in a variety of application areas.
This volume, edited by Constantine Stephanidis, contains papers in the thematic
area of Universal Access in Human–Computer Interaction, addressing the following
major topics:
• Universal Access in the Home Environment
• Ambient Intelligence and Ambient Assisted Living
• Mobile and Ubiquitous Interaction
• Alternative Interaction Techniques and Devices
• Intelligence, Adaptation and Personalization
