The Chartered Institute for IT, Oxford University Press (OUP) has announced the addition of Interacting with Computers to its journal collection.

OUP also currently publishes both The Computer Journal and ITNOW on behalf of the British Computing Society, and this new title enhances the quality of OUP’s computer science list.

Neil Scriven, senior publisher at OUP, said: 'Oxford University Press is delighted to be publishing Interacting with Computers on behalf of BCS.  This innovative and thought-provoking publication will be a welcome addition to our computer science collection.'

Topics covered include: HCI and design theory; new research paradigms; interaction process and methodology; user interface, usability and UX design; development tools and techniques; empirical evaluations and assessment strategies; new and emerging technologies; ubiquitous, ambient and mobile interaction; accessibility, user modelling and intelligent systems; and organisational and societal issues.
