As computing becomes ubiquitous and pervasive, computing is increasingly
becoming an extension of human, modifying or enhancing human experience.
Today’s car reacts to human perception of danger with a series of computers
participating in how to handle the vehicle for human command and environmental
conditions. Proliferating sensors help with observations, decision making as
well as sensory modifications. The emergent semantic web will lead to machine
understanding of data and help exploit heterogeneous, multi-source digital media.
Emerging applications in situation monitoring and entertainment applications are
resulting in development of experiential environments.
SEMANTIC WEB AND BEYOND
Computing for Human Experience
addresses the following goals:
brings together forward looking research and technology that will shape our
world more intimately than ever before as computing becomes an extension of
human experience;
covers all aspects of computing that is very closely tied to human perception,
understanding and experience;
brings together computing that deal with semantics, perception and experience;
reaching research.
