The engineering community SIG

Published:21 April 2006Publication History

ABSTRACT

The Engineering Community may be the least populated and the least understood of the new communities at CHI, perhaps because so many definitions of engineering exist (as evidenced by the quotes in the margins). This SIG will provide a forum for people interested in bringing the best of the field of engineering to the field of HCI.
