HCI for Children with Disabilities
In this book the authors present an HCI principle-based approach to develop applications to assist children with disabilities. Design knowledge related to developing complex solution for this audience is explained from an interaction design point of view. Different methodologies, models and cases studies are covered with the aim of helping practitioners to adopt any of the proposed techniques presented in this book. HCI methodologies that adopt an agile strategy are presented, including novel techniques at different development steps, such as: board games, agile planning, agile implementation, method engineering. As this is a huge research field the authors do not just focus on a specific disability but test their methods in different contexts with excellent results. Readers of this book will find both a well-organized and structured set of methodologies and also material that has been tested and refined throughout years of research. Using detailed case studies the reader is guided towards specific solutions which will also provide insights into how to address related problems.

Educational and Social Dimensions of Digital Transformation in Organizations provides emerging research exploring the theoretical and practical aspects of evolving organizations and maintaining sustainable business strategies through digital environments. Featuring coverage on a broad range of topics such as consumer relationships, organizational knowledge, and enterprise social networks, this publication is ideally designed for graduate-level students, managers, educational administrators, IT professionals, researchers, and system developers seeking current research on organizational preparedness and technological adaptation.
Human 4.0
Information technology is becoming ingrained in our everyday life. The consequence of this is that the line between humans and technology is more and more blurred, and tends to transform the human being into a cyber-organism. This transformation, accompanied by the emergence of Industry 4.0, brings us to define a new term: Human 4.0. This new generation of individuals has to deal with smart interconnected pervasive environments supported by the internet of things. Nevertheless, this merge between humans and technology is not straight-forward and requires an additional effort to reduce the gap between the human being and the machine. Such research implies a multidisciplinary approach to the interaction between biological organisms and artificial artefacts. This book intends to provide the reader with an insight into the new relationship with the technology brought about by Industry 4.0, and how it can make the human-machine interaction more efficient.
Cases on Usability Engineering: Design and Development of Digital Products
Information technologies play a significant role in modern information-driven societies, making a comprehensive understanding of digital media a fundamental requisite to success.
