Human-Computer Interaction

The following inventory of topics contains representative entries relating to all of these aspects of the design and analysis of human-computer interaction systems. This inventory is a current snapshot of topics on which there are results that could be taught. In addition to direct HCI topics, we have included in this inventory results from other disciplines central enough to be taught within courses in HCI. Such a list cannot hope to be complete or even non-controversial, but it should be heuristically useful in the practical business of preparing courses.
