You are invited to participate in INTERACT '99, a major international conference presenting leading-edge research and development in all aspects of interactive computer systems and technology. Human-computer interaction is about theories and methods for the design and deployment of interactive systems which are reliable, predictable, understandable and pleasant to use, and which enhance and support human work and activity.

INTERACT '99 will bring together researchers and practitioners in all the fields and disciplines which contribute to HCI. This is the last major HCI conference of the millennium. It will review more than thirty years of pioneering work which has shaped the discipline, and highlight the trends, discoveries and innovations which will shape a new era of HCI in the twenty-first century. The venue is Edinburgh, Scotland's historic capital city, currently the centre of a scientific, artistic and political renaissance of wide significance.

The conference takes place during the Edinburgh International Festival, when the city plays host to leading musicians, actors, artists and entertainers from all over the world, as well as to a large number of visitors, who give the city a uniquely festive and cosmopolitan atmosphere. A variety of accommodation at different price levels will be available for delegates. There will be ample opportunity both before and after the conference to take advantage of the city's many attractions, or to experience the wider scenic, culinary, sporting and recreational facilities in the surrounding areas of Scotland.
