Human Computer Confluence – Unbreakable Ties in the Symbiosis of Society and Technology

Beschreibung

HCI research over three decades has shaped a wide spanning research area at the boundaries of computer science and behavioral science, with an impressive outreach to how humankind is experiencing information and communication technologies in literally ever y breath of an individuals life. The explosive growth of networks and communications, and at the same time radical miniaturization of ICT electronics have reversed the principles of human computer interaction. Up until now considered as the interaction co ncerns when humans approach ICT systems, more recent observations see systems approaching humans at the same time. Humans and ICT Systems apparently approach each other confluently. With modern ICT systems (pervasive, globe - spanning, omnipresent and partic ipative ICT) deployed at very large scale (5.3 billion mobile phones being in use today, 1 billion active facebook users monthly, 1 billion (smart) cars on the roads, the emerging internet of things, etc.), we do see technology confluently going together w ith society as a whole (rather than individual users). This large scale confluence has led to notions like "Socio - inspired ICT", assuming that future, globe scale ICT systems should be viewed as social systems. Complex socio - technical systems challenge res earch to identify and formalize the principles of interaction and adaptation in social systems, so as to be able to ground future ICT systems on those principles.
