Title: "Advances in Dynamic and Static Media for Interactive Systems: Communicability, Computer Science and Design"

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.
