Introduction

In the last decade, social and interactive medias have emerged as one of most vivacious areas in information technology and communication. Today, it is necessary to insert mechanisms to increase the qualitative communicability among different users all over our world. These mechanisms are achieved through heuristics and using as a common area the intersection of the formal and factual sciences. The main goal is to increase the quality of communicability in interactive systems and to introduce a new professional in the context of the information science, technology and management called ‘Communicability Analyst in Interactive Systems’. The secondary targets are to present a series of works in which it is possible to analyze the current state-of-art of the new technologies advances in universities, R+D laboratories, industrial sectors, etc. and to create an area of excellence among the formal and factual sciences aimed at constantly increasing the quality of interactive systems, especially those related to communicability, augmented reality, multimedia/hypermedia (online and/or off-line), Web 2.0, Web 3.0, virtual reality and mixed reality.

Handbook Aims

This edited handbook aims to report emerging new horizons in R+D and development outcomes on problems and corresponding strategies, methods, techniques, approaches and successful applications or solutions in design, communicability, audio-visual contents and programming for advances in dynamic and static media (online and/or off-line interactive systems). The handbook encourages high quality chapters to eradicate ambiguities and increasingly unify all participants in computer science and design, from production to realization of the emerging or new technologies.
