Designing for Usability, Inclusion and Sustainability in Human-Computer Interaction
Addressing the rising prevalence of interactive systems in our daily lives, this book focuses on the essential aspects of usability, user experience (UX) and inclusive design. It:
· Discusses both theoretical and practical aspects, approaches and methods for the design process and the collaboration between HCI Design and Software Engineering.
· Expands to practical topics such as web and mobile design, aesthetics, information visualization, information architecture and navigation design, along with relevant guidelines and standards.
· Tackles the issue of persuasive interfaces that has arisen as a crucial concern in the contemporary digitalized landscape.
· Emphasizes the importance of making computing systems inclusive and user-friendly for a diverse range of users, including children, older adults and persons with disabilities.
· Highlights the significance of usability, underscoring its key role in enhancing the overall user experience of interactive products.
This book has been written for individuals interested in human-computer interaction research and applications.

Biography
Constantine Stephanidis is Professor at the Department of Computer Science of the University of Crete, past Director of the Institute of Computer Science of FORTH and Founding Head of its Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) Laboratory and its Ambient Intelligence Program. He has been the Principal Investigator for over 180 European Commission, National and Industry funded projects. He is the Founding Editor of the International Journal Universal Access in the Information Society, co-Editor of the International Journal of Human-Computer Interaction and General Chair of the HCI International Conference. He is the President of the Council for Research and Innovation of the Region of Crete and the President of the Hellenic National Accessibility Authority.
Gavriel Salvendy is University Distinguished Professor at the College of Engineering and Computer Science at the University of Central Florida and Founding President of the Academy of Science, Engineering, and Medicine of Florida. He is Professor Emeritus of Industrial Engineering at Purdue University and Chair Professor Emeritus and Founding Head of the Department of Industrial Engineering at Tsinghua University, Beijing, P.R. China. He is a member of the National Academy of Engineering and the recipient of the John Fritz Medal which is frequently referred to as the Nobel Prize in Engineering. He is the Founding Editor of the International Journal of Human-Computer Interaction and the Founder of the International Conference on Human Computer Interaction - now in its 40th year.
'A bountiful cornucopia of ideas from the fertile minds of leading scholars and rising stars. A milestone volume that will be valuable to newcomers, experienced professionals, scholars and business leaders.'
Ben Shneiderman, University of Maryland'Constantine Stephanidis and Gavriel Salvendy's monumental 6-volume series on Human Computer Interaction has to be required for all libraries. This massive encyclopedia of fundamental knowledge will not age, because as new technologies and methods come and go, the fundamental underlying principles (especially those of human behavior) remain unchanged.'
