HCSE2010

3rd Conference on Human-Centred Software Engineering

Call for Papers


HCSE is a working conference that brings together researchers and practitioners interested in strengthening the scientific foundations of user interface design, examining the relationship between software engineering and human-computer interaction and on how to strengthen user-centred design as an essential part of software engineering process. As a working conference, substantial time is devoted to an open and lively discussion of papers.


We seek high-quality, original papers that address the theory, design, development and evaluation of ideas, tools, techniques, methodologies in (but not limited to) the following topics:

  • Integration of software engineering and user-centred design
  • HCI models and model-driven engineering
  • Incorporating guidelines and principles for designing usable products into the development processes
  • Usability engineering
  • Methods for user interface design
  • Patterns in HCI
  • Software architectures for user interfaces
  • User interfaces for ubiquitous environments
  • Representations for design in the development process
  • Working with processes models like Rational Unified Process (RUP) or eXtreme Programming (XP)
  • Social and organisational aspects of software development in a lifecycle perspective
  • Case studies

Papers must be written in English and not exceed 16 pages. It is strongly recommended that papers use the templates provided by Springer, which will publish the proceedings of HCSE again. Please submit a pdf-version and additionally a doc-file.
