Ambient Intelligence refers to smart electronic environments that are sensitive and responsive to the presence of people. Since its introduction in the late 1990s, this vision has matured, having become quite influential in the development of new concepts for information processing as well as combining multi-disciplinary fields including computer science, electrical engineering, industrial design, architectural design, user interfaces, and cognitive science.

Originating from the Workshop on Ambient Intelligence in Everyday Life held at the Miramar Congress Center, San Sebastian, Spain, in July 2005, this book is devoted to the cognitive aspects of ambient intelligence. The 15 carefully reviewed and revised articles presented are organized in topical sections on human-centric computing, ambient interfaces, and architectures for ambient intelligence.

The two volume set LNCS 4662 and LNCS 4663 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th IFIP TC13 International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction, INTERACT 2007, held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in September 2007.

The 60 revised papers of the first volume presented together with the abstracts of 3 keynote talks were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on social computing, Web, UI prototyping, user centred design methods and techniques intelligent user interfaces, interaction on the move, accessibility, designing for multiples devices, interaction techniques, affective computing, 3D interaction and 3D interfaces, as well evaluation methods.

The 50 revised papers of the second volume presented together with 14 doctoral consortium papers, 8 tutorials, 11 posters, video papers and panel surveys, were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on tangible user interfaces and interaction, cultural issues in HCI, safety, security, privacy and usability, user and usability studies, focus and context visualization techniques, and tagging, visualizing social information, online communities and e-learning, children, games, and the elderly, usability studies on collaborative systems, interaction for selection, as well as software engineering and HCI.
