This week, Microsoft Research carries on its tradition of collaboration and contribution at CHI 2006, the premier international conference for human-computer interaction (HCI). Following Microsoft Corp.’s open, academic approach to research, 92 percent of the Microsoft® papers accepted at the conference this year were authored in collaboration with 13 different university and industry partners.
“Microsoft researchers are long-standing collaborators in the HCI community, publishing and reviewing papers, sitting on boards and committees, and presenting their work for the past decade,” said Gary Olson, CHI 2006 conference chair. “Microsoft’s continued contributions at CHI demonstrate the company’s commitment to pushing the state of the art in the field.”
CHI is sponsored by the Association for Computing Machinery’s Special Interest Group on Computer-Human Interactions (ACM SIGCHI).
