In our knowledge and service-based society, it is crucial that human-computer interactions, computer-mediated collaboration, communication and social networking are designed ergonomically. The correct ergonomic design of software, hardware and services not only greatly improves workers' productivity and efficiency but also stimulates their creativity and significantly improves their health and well-being. Research has shown that ergonomic design can deliver great benefits for all computer users and is especially helpful for older workers. The main goals of the Technical Committee on Work with Computing Systems (TC WWCS) are to promote awareness of ergonomic design and participatory development and to evaluate human-computer interactions and associated services used in the workplace and in the operating systems of commercial and nonprofit organizations. Special attention is paid to promoting users' health and well-being and to the interaction between theory and practice.
TC WWCS encourages the submission of proposals for papers incorporating case, field and laboratory studies on working with computer systems that address the following themes:
