** INTRODUCTION

HUMAN’22 is the fifth workshop of a series for the ACM Hypertext

conferences. It is sponsored by SIGWEB and affiliated with the

33rd ACM Conference on Hypertext and Social Media. It has a strong

focus on the user and thus is complementary to the strong machine

analytics research direction that could be experienced in previous

conferences.

The user-centric view on hypertext not only includes user interfaces

and interaction, but also discussions about hypertext application

domains. Furthermore, the workshop raises the question of how original

hypertext ideas (e.g., Doug Engelbart’s “augmenting human intellect” or

Frank Halasz’ “hypertext as a medium for thinking and communication”)

can improve today’s hypertext systems.

In line with the HT’22 conference, the HUMAN’22 workshop will be held

hybrid, that is, taking place in Barcelona and streamed via Zoom. For

further information see the workshop website and follow us on Twitter.

** SCOPE

Historically, hypertext is strongly connected to human factors. This

can be experienced by the early work provided by hypertext pioneers,

such as Doug Engelbart or Ted Nelson. However, recent hypertext

research focuses mostly on machine analytics. This workshop wants to

broaden the scope again by taking the human back into consideration. In

order to accomplish that, the workshop combines original hypertext ideas

with recent hypertext research trends. Furthermore, it tries to

consolidate different hypertext areas by looking at those from a human

factors viewpoint.

HUMAN also encourages to submit work that has an interdisciplinary

perspective. It targets both scientists and developers from various

research and business areas who consider a critical and open-minded

discussion of original hypertext ideas with the goal to identify and

solve today’s hypertext challenges.

Relevant topics include (but are not limited to):

– Systems for augmenting human intellect

– Human-centered information systems

– Human-centered AI

– User interfaces and interactions

– Cognitive aspects and hypertext

– Collaborative hypertext and social media

– Hypertext used for human communication

– Hypertext and decision making

– Information structuring

– Spatial hypertext

– Annotation services

– Organizing information

– Information structuring in digital humanities

– User perspectives in adaptive hypertext

– Social aspects of humans using hypertext

– Intercultural aspects in hypertext
