Welcome to CHI2004, the premier international conference for
human-computer interaction. CHI2004 will be held in Vienna,
Austria. Our conference theme is CONNECT, and we've created new opportunities for
conference attendees to connect with technology, with each other, and with Vienna, a marvelous
central European city of imperial tradition and modern creativity. Please join us in Vienna and
take advantage of the many opportunities to network and showcase your research, design, and
practice in a top international conference destination. We are pleased to announce five Special
Areas for the conference, and we especially encourage you to join us in exploring these topics.
