AHFE International

Accelerating Open Access Science in Human Factors Engineering and Human-Centered Computing

Aims and Scope

AHFE Open Access Proceedings publishes original articles on research and development efforts intended to promote the comprehensive integration of people, services and systems. The Proceedings addresses all aspects of human, computer and systems integration, with an emphasis on AI across domains of human activity and applications to industry, business, government, education, and everyday life.

We welcome multidisciplinary work that advances theory and practice in human–AI systems collaboration, human-centered design, ergonomics, and systems engineering.
