The website of the new ACM Transactions on Interactive Intelligent Systems (TiiS) is now on-line at http://tiis.acm.org. TiiS encourages and disseminates research that combines methods and ideas from artificial intelligence and human-computer interaction.

The AI Magazine special issue on Usable AI is now available via the AI Magazine website.

Current

• Choice and decision making processes of computer users
• Intelligent support for web-based media exchange
• Usability challenges raised by intelligent systems
• User-adaptive systems and intelligent user interfaces
• User-centered design of systems based on semantic or language technologies
