Introductory Session
HCI = UX
What is HCI?
Studying ppl interacting with computers
Desiging interventions for systems involving people and technology

Design often comes with 3 important needs:


Useful: better functionality
Usable: Easy to learn and do
Used: Accepted by many users

Ubiquitous Computing:
refers to the integration of computing capabilities into everyday objects
and environments, making technology seamlessly present and accessible in our daily
lives.

ubicomp - no computer/artefact divide


ex: viewing a pdf
wearable/cyborg - no computer/user divide
ex: smartwatch health tracker

More concerns added to HCI:


experience and enjoyment
more decision points
user needs to be te decision maker

ones that uses your library (needs a very specific knowledge about PL)
When you contruct a programming language
ones that uses the PL ( both beginers and experts in programming will learn
and use)
When you develop a website
the website users
When you prove P=NP
