HFSI 2015 - 1st International Conference on Human Factors and Systems Interaction

Human Factors and Systems Interaction aims to address the main issues of concern within systems interface with a particular emphasis on the system lifecycle development and implementation of interfaces and the general implications of virtual, augmented and mixed reality with respect to human and technology interaction.
The objective of Human Factors and Systems Interaction is to provide equal consideration of the human along with the hardware and software in the technical and technical management processes for developing systems that will optimize total system performance and minimize total ownership costs.
This conference aims to explore and discuss innovative studies of technology and its application in system interfaces and welcomes research in progress, case studies and poster demonstrations.
Human Factors and Systems Interaction is, in the first instance, affected by the forces shaping the nature of future computing and systems development. These forces include:
Decreasing systems and hardware costs leading to faster machines and systems.
Miniaturization of hardware leading to portability.
Reduction in power requirements leading to portability.
New display technologies leading to the packaging of devices in new forms.
Assimilation of computation into the environment (e.g., VCRs, microwave ovens, televisions).
Specialized hardware leading to new functions
Widespread use of computers and systems in everyday tasks
Increasing innovation combined with lowering cost, leading to rapid interaction by people previously left out of the "system revolution."
Wider social concerns leading to improved access to computers and systems by currently disadvantaged groups (e.g., young children, the physically/visually disabled, etc.).
