Invitation to Participate Peoples’ choices as to what products they use – from cars to games to word processors – are increasingly determined by the human-factors of the software they contain. EICS 2009 will communicate innovative engineering approaches for enhancing the quality of interactive systems. We invite your papers, experience reports and demonstrations on software processes, tools and techniques for the engineering of interactive computing systems, and look forward to seeing you in Pittsburgh in July 2009!

• Integration of interaction design into the software development process

• Specification of interactive systems

• Requirements engineering for interactive systems

• User interface prototyping

• User interface development support (including design, implementation, testing)

• Software architectures for interactive systems

• Evaluation/testing of user interfaces

• End-user programming of interactive systems

• Dynamic generation/composition of interactive systems.
