Call for Participation

ACM Conference on Universal Usability: Solutions, Systems, and Methods
http://www.acm.org/sigchi/cuu/

Washington, DC
Holiday Inn Capitol
November 16-17, 2000

We invite submissions for the ACM Conference on Universal Usability, to be
held in Washington, DC, November 16 and 17, 2000. We seek work in any area
whose aim is to enable the widest range of users to successfully use
technology for information, communications, entertainment, education,
e-commerce, civic systems, and government services. Challenges include the
diversity of users (experts & novices, old & young, educated & illiterate,
disabled, forgotten, those in ill health, etc.); the wide range of technology
(e.g.; 100 to 1 ratios in processor and network speeds), and the gap between
what users know and what they need to know. We are interested in research,
new systems and technologies, empirical evaluations of systems, policy
suggestions, and systems that support community activities. A diverse set of
participants is expected including technologists, policy makers, advocates,
users, and researchers.
