On March 20th, the program will include presentations by usability specialists from industrial and academic institutions as well as panels to discuss the emerging work on usability.
In the morning of March 21st, some breakout sessions in the form of Research Café will be held to explore the ideas arising from the discussions in the two preceding days.
