The development consortium

The development consortium editorial editorial editorial The Development Consortium I know I have said it before, but the CHI conference brings together an amazing combination of people, disciplines, specializations, and interests. It is also the place to watch for the emergence of new interest areas within the broader field of human-computer interaction. There are several venues within the conference where this happens. It often starts with a special interest group, which is a meeting for an hour or two of like-minded people to discuss an area of common interest, which may in a later year develop into a workshop, which is a more formally organized day-long event. Since 1997 there has also been the development consortium, which is an event designed to explicitly identify and develop new areas within HCI. In 1997 it was Soft-currency countries, 1998 Teaching, 1999 Seniors, 2000 Beyond the Desktop, 2001 Latin America, 2002 South Africa, and in 2003 it was about Mass Media.

Abstract

editorial editorial editorial The Development Consortium I know I have said it before, but the CHI conference brings together an amazing combination of people, disciplines, specializations, and interests. It is also the place to watch for the emergence of new interest areas within the broader field of human-computer interaction. There are several venues within the conference where this happens. It often starts with a special interest group, which is a meeting for an hour or two of like-minded people to discuss an area of common interest, which may in a later year develop into a workshop, which is a more formally organized day-long event. Since 1997 there has also been the development consortium, which is an event designed to explicitly identify and develop new areas within HCI. In 1997 it was Soft-currency countries, 1998 Teaching, 1999 Seniors, 2000 Beyond the Desktop, 2001 Latin America, 2002 South Africa, and in 2003 it was about Mass Media. (This year is about Eastern Europe and the Middle East.) This issue of interactions is a result of the 2003 Development Consortium. acm interactions is a bimonthly publication of the ACM, The Association for Computing PUBLICATIONS OFFICE: ACM, 1515 Broadway, New York, New
