  text: In most countries demographic developments tend towards more and more elderly
    people in single households. Improving the quality of life for elderly people
    is an emerging issue within our information society. Good user interfaces have
    tremendous implications for appropriate accessibility. Though, user interfaces
    should not only be easily accessible, they should also be useful, usable and most
    of all enjoyable and a benefit for people. Traditionally, Human–Computer Interaction
    (HCI) bridges Natural Sciences (Psychology) and Engineering (Informatics/Computer
    Science), whilst Usability Engineering (UE) is anchored in Software Technology
    and supports the actual implemen-tation. Together, HCI and UE have a powerful
    potential to help towards making technology a little bit more accessible, useful,
    useable and enjoyable for everybody.
